**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.

##### **Are you ready to redefine the future of digital identity in the AI era?**

**Okta’s Germany Strategic Account Executive Sales Team is hiring!**

Our Strategic Account Executives (SAE) are the visionary leaders who orchestrate and drive sales engagements for our most critical and prestigious Germany based customers.

In an era where Artificial Intelligence is transforming how enterprises operate, identity has become the new security perimeter. As an SAE, you won't just be selling software—you will act as a trusted, long-term advisor helping the C-suite safely navigate the AI revolution. You will build first-class Account Plans that map directly to your customers' overarching business strategies, digital transformation initiatives, and AI adoption plans. By championing value-based selling, you will translate complex technical capabilities into undeniable business outcomes, showing how secure identity is the ultimate enabler of modern enterprise innovation and ROI.

You will collaboratively plan and orchestrate the execution of aligned account strategies, ensuring robust opportunity generation, deep relationship alignment, and flawless account governance. Expect to lead from the front: presenting Okta’s transformational proposals, negotiating high-stakes terms, and bringing down complex, multi-layered, seven-figure deals that deliver massive win-win scenarios for both the customer and Okta.

Beyond managing existing relationships, you will hunt for new business leads that fit our ideal client profile, uncovering uncharted territory in the market. You will align closely with our Global partners to build sustainable strategic engagements, and leverage cutting-edge Account-Based Marketing to ensure Okta's investment continuously aligns with customer growth.

We are seeking a passionate, strategic, and hyper-focused professional to drive massive new revenue growth across Fortune 500 accounts. As an individual contributor, you will play a vital, high-visibility role in driving a significant share of revenue for Okta, helping the world's most prominent enterprises transition securely into a smarter, AI-driven future.

We provide our reps with an environment where they can make incredibly valuable contributions from day one, while also building endless opportunities for learning and career growth. The work you do here will directly impact the security, trust, and digital experience of the world's largest organizations.

- **Forward-Looking Tech IQ:** A solid understanding of how modern technologies, automation, and AI are reshaping enterprise security, data access, and cloud architectures.

- **Ecosystem Leverage:** Previous success utilizing partners, channels, and alliances to sell more effectively and obliterate your quota.
