What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on owning the full identity and access management function — designing and maintaining access controls, building automation for user provisioning and deprovisioning, and establishing governance frameworks. The work is heavily Okta-focused, with integration across HR, finance, and cloud platforms, and requires regular audits, stakeholder communication, and collaboration with senior leadership on security posture. It suits an experienced IAM practitioner comfortable operating independently in a remote environment.

Why we read it this way (7)
SOC classification is a judgement call: the role is primarily IAM governance, access control design, and security posture — closer to 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) than to 15-1244 (Systems Administrators), though the day-to-day Okta administration duties add operational flavor.
The JD states 5–7 years of total IT experience with 2–3 years as an Okta administrator; the overall years minimum is set to 5 (the stated minimum) and Okta's years demanded to 2.
AWS is listed alongside 'Atlassian' as examples of 'public cloud platforms' in the requirements section ('e.g., … Amazon Web Services, Atlassian'). Both are treated as hard gates per section placement, with AWS alternatives populated for the cloud-platform capability.
