Our vision for Okta Threat Intelligence is to drive further confidence in Okta’s best-in-class security capabilities.

• A passion for the cybersecurity domain, as demonstrated by previous published work, contributions to cyber security projects or completion of relevant training.
• Excellent written communication and presentation design skills.
• An ability to handle sensitive information with a high degree of integrity and discretion.
• Project management skills and presenting skills are a bonus.

What does it take?

• You’re super organized. You thrive working in multi-stakeholder environments to meet agreed deadlines.
• You are perpetually curious and love to geek out and dive deep into the technical details.
• You write succinct texts with a defined audience and outcome in mind. You give critical and constructive feedback to the work of your peers, and make constructive suggestions on how to improve their work.
