The Team

At Okta, we're building the world's identity platform - one that empowers people, protects data, and fuels digital innovation. Our customers (think: JetBlue, T-Mobile, Sonos, Zoom) trust us to help them stay secure, seamless, and scalable in a world where everything and everyone is connected.

And behind the tech? People like you - curious, motivated, collaborative learners who want to do meaningful work alongside great teammates.

The Opportunity: Where High Potential Meets High Impact

Let's be real: There are a lot of SDR roles out there. But at Okta, we do things differently.

This isn't just a stepping stone - it's your launchpad into a long-term sales career in one of the most exciting industries in tech: cybersecurity and identity.

We're looking for driven, curious individuals who thrive in fast-paced environments, embrace feedback, and want to make a tangible impact every day. As an SDR at Okta, you'll do more than prospect - you'll uncover real business challenges, collaborate cross-functionally, and set the foundation for meaningful customer relationships.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Research accounts and contacts to develop thoughtful outreach strategies using tools like Salesforce, Outreach, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator
  • Collaborate with Marketing and Account Executives to plan and execute prospecting campaigns
  • Engage inbound leads and perform outbound outreach to generate high-quality meetings and opportunities
  • Conduct discovery conversations to understand business needs and tee up your Account Executives for success
  • Hit your call, email, meeting, and pipeline goals - and have fun doing it, with team competitions, shout-outs, and ongoing support
  • Keep your data organized and up-to-date in Salesforce
  • Work with cross-functional partners to continuously improve how we connect with our customers


What Makes You a Great Fit
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience
  • 6-12 months of prior business experience preferred
  • A strong communicator, written and verbal - you know how to connect
  • Self-motivated and goal-oriented - you take initiative and follow through
  • Comfortable managing priorities in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Coachable - you're open to feedback and eager to grow
  • Curious - you ask great questions and are always looking to learn
  • Familiarity with sales tools like Salesforce, Outreach, and Sales Navigator is a plus


A Few Logistics
  • This role is onsite in our Toronto office 4 days per week (Mon-Thurs)
  • If you're not already local, you'll need to relocate within an agreed-upon timeframe - note that Okta does not provide relocation assistance
  • You'll attend in-person onboarding in either San Francisco or Chicago to kick off your journey
  • If you need a reasonable accommodation during the application or interview process, let us know here
