About this role
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. As the Senior, Internal Audit AI Enablement & Automation, you will own the day-to-day build, adoption, and measurement of Okta Internal Audit's AI automation program — turning auditor problem statements into working tools, tracking every measurable metric to a verified strategic outcome, and representing Internal Audit across Finance and company-wide AI networks. Okta Internal Audit has moved past the proof-of-concept stage. The AI enablement program is live, tools are in production, and meaningful audit capacity has already been recovered and redeployed into higher-value work — without external development spend. This role exists to scale that engine. The role is the hands-on builder, program coordinator, and adoption driver at the center of that effort. This is not a strategy or advisory role — it is a delivery role. The person in this seat ships tools, closes the loop on problem statements, translates recovered audit capacity into documented strategic value, and represents Internal Audit's automation program in the Finance AI Champions and Company-wide AI Champions networks. What You Will Own
Automation Delivery - This is the core of the role. Everything else supports it.
Build and maintain AI automations across all Internal Audit functions using the department's existing AI Hub and SOX testing engine as the foundation. Manage the problem statement intake pipeline, acknowledging every submission with a clear disposition (built, deferred, or declined with rationale) and prioritizing the backlog using impact, frequency, and build complexity. Keep the intake process simple, and maintain visibility into open problem statements so the team knows submissions go somewhere.
Measurement & Reporting - This role owns the data that makes recovered hours real and attributable.
Maintain the AI Impact Dashboard with accurate, function-level attribution. Protect the integrity of the measurement methodology, tracking protocols, time categories, and verification standards. Surface delivery risk early, contribute to periodic AI Value Reports, and support executive and Audit Committee-ready materials that translate hours saved into dollar value and strategic audit impact.
Working Group Coordination - The Working Groups are the primary vehicle for team-wide adoption. This role keeps them moving.
Maintain regular check-ins with each Working Group, coordinate the Bi-Weekly Showcase cadence, and track each group against its phased plan. Flag delivery risk early and assist Working Group leads in sequencing deliverables against the overall automation backlog.
Individual Contributor Activation - Broad participation is essential. This role removes the friction that prevents it.
Track individual participation against department expectations. Reach out directly one-on-one, not via group reminder, to any team member with no recorded participation. Lead every team communication with what auditors gain from participating, not what is required of them.
Culture, Knowledge Management & External Collaboration - This role sustains momentum through recognition, a maintained
