About this role
Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human
Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.
This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.
Overview
The ISV Ecosystem team sits within the Okta Products and Technology organization and is focused on expanding our breadth and depth of SaaS integrations across both Okta Workforce and Auth0 product areas, a C-level priority for the company. Our team ensures SaaS ISVs (independent software vendors) have the knowledge, tools, and incentives to build integrations that extend our core product functionality. We are driving the formation and adoption of new identity standards focused on building an interconnected and secure AI ecosystem. Okta’s ecosystem is a core differentiator, and developing a scalable approach to ecosystem development will be a critical driver of our next stage of growth.
As the ISV Ecosystem Growth Manager , you will build and scale the programmatic engine that attracts, converts, and activates ISVs into the Okta Integration Network (OIN). Rather than traditional product-selling or consumer acquisition, this role focuses on designing growth loops targeting multiple personas (Product, Developers, Partnerships) and articulating the business value of supporting open identity standards. You will work in close partnership with leaders across Product, Product Marketing, Marketing Operations, IT, Developer Relations, and Digital teams to scale our ISV ecosystem.

• Activation & Partner Enablement (Bottom-of-Funnel): Work alongside PMM and Partnerships teams to build automated "go-to-market in a box" toolkits to help newly integrated ISVs announce their integration and accelerate adoption.
• Funnel Analytics & Vertical Insights: Establish, track, and optimize Okta’s SaaS ISV acquisition funnel and ecosystem growth KPIs (e.g., pipeline velocity, conversion rates, and time-to-publish).
• Systems and Operational Scale: Collaborate with IT, Marketing Ops, and Digital teams to design and build scalable ISV marketing systems, using AI and marketing automation to streamline workflows and drive program growth.
