Senior Developer Content Specialist

Overview

Okta is looking for a Senior Developer Content Advocate to join the team responsible for the Auth0 Blog, one of the industry's most respected resources for developers. We don't just document features; we teach developers how to build secure, scalable, and modern applications.

Get to know Okta:
Okta is The World's Identity Company. We free everyone to safely use any technology, anywhere, on any device or app. Our flexible and neutral products, Okta Platform and Auth0 Platform, provide secure access, authentication, and automation, placing identity at the core of business security and growth. Okta celebrates a variety of perspectives and experiences and seeks lifelong learners who can bring unique experiences to the team.

Join our team! We're building a world where Identity belongs to you.

If you are a developer who likes writing, loves deconstructing complex problems, and wants to drive the adoption of modern identity security, this is the place for you.

• Create Developer-First Content: Plan, research, and write high-quality technical tutorials, deep dives, and "how-to" articles for the Auth0 Blog that help developers solve real-world identity problems.
• Content Curation & Editorial Review: Act as an editor and curator for internal engineers, advocates, and guest contributors. Validate technical claims, test code snippets, and edit drafts to ensure high editorial standards.
• Multimedia Production: Identify opportunities for and produce video content (screen casts, shorts, or explainers) that complements written tutorials.
• Manage Content Lifecycle: Own the editorial calendar from concept to publication and distribution. Proactively update high-traffic legacy posts to ensure code samples and advice remain fresh.
• Collaborate Strategically: Partner with Product Managers and Engineers to translate complex feature releases into compelling narratives and practical use cases.

• Experience: 5+ years of experience in technical writing, developer marketing, or developer advocacy, with a strong portfolio of public-facing technical content and experience as a software developer working on production level code.
• Technical Proficiency: Ability to read and understand code. Comfortable working with JavaScript/Type Script frameworks to create and validate tutorial code samples.
• Communication: Exceptional written English with a clear, explanatory, and empathetic style that resonates with a developer audience.

• Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Identity protocols (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML) and web security best practices.
• SEO Knowledge: Experience writing content optimized for search engines without sacrificing technical depth.
• AI Adaptability: Experience using AI tools to assist in research, outlining, or content optimization.
• Community Engagement: Experience interacting with developer communities to understand user needs.

We believe AI is a powerful tool to accelerate research and structure ideas, but it is not a replacement for human expertise. We value AI-resilient content, unique, experience-based insights and verified code that generic models cannot replicate. We look for educators who use AI to work smarter, not to do the work for them.
