Senior Product Acceleration Specialist
Role Location: Bangalore, India
Reports to: Manager, Product Acceleration (India)
About the Role
As a Senior Product Acceleration Specialist, you will play a critical role in driving Okta's long-term product success by strategically validating, deploying, and driving global adoption of New Product Introductions (NPIs). Serving as a high-impact technical subject matter expert, you will act as a key advisory link between Okta Research and Development (ORD), Go-To-Market (GTM) field teams, and our most strategic Global 2000 (G2K) enterprise accounts.
While you will utilize a cutting-edge lab environment to test integration patterns and validate complex identity scenarios, your primary focus is to serve as the master of new features.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Lead cross-functional collaboration with internal teams, including Product Management, Engineering, Presales, Sales, and Professional Services, to address complex integration issues and inform product development.
- Global Alignment & Office Presence: Facilitate effective team interaction and maintain tight alignment across global offices (e.g., USA and India).
