The Team

Okta Customer Acceleration is looking for a UX / UI Designer to join our Knowledge, Online Support, and Communities team. This is a high-impact, strategic role focused on transforming our customer self-service experience across Okta and Auth0.

The Opportunity

The ideal candidate has a strategic, systems-thinking mindset and a proven track record of creating impactful designs that directly improve key business metrics like case deflection and self-service success. You must have deep proficiency in UX research methods to gather actionable insights that inform and validate design decisions. Experience designing for Salesforce Service and Salesforce Experience Cloud interfaces is a significant advantage.

You will have ownership over the design of our Okta and Auth0 Support Centers and Community platforms. This role will be responsible for defining and delivering digitally innovative, visually appealing, and highly effective user experiences that not only meet user needs but significantly elevate the user journey for our technical practitioners.

What you'll be doing

You will be expected to move beyond simple execution to strategic ownership by :

• Lead UX Research and Strategy : Proactively perform mixed-methods UX research to deeply understand user pain points, needs, and behaviors, particularly on high-traffic pages where drop-offs are impacting self-service success.
• Drive Strategic Design Vision : Take a hard look at our existing experience, quickly identify friction points, and articulate a clear, data-informed strategy for improving key outcomes. This includes defining a cohesive journey between traditional self-service content and new AI-powered experiences.
• Design for Impact and Agility : Design and refine high-fidelity wireframes, detailed user flows, and interactive prototypes for complex projects that require long-term vision (e.g., balancing traditional knowledge base search with agentic, generative AI answers).
• Elevate Design Quality : Ensure all design work maintains a high degree of fidelity, visual appeal, and consistency, pushing our brand while adhering to our design system.
• Cross-Functional Partnership : Collaborate closely with Product Management, Engineering, and Content teams, acting as the design domain expert to ensure design feasibility and fidelity in the final product.
• Present and Defend Rationale : Clearly present design solutions and the data-driven rationale behind them to stakeholders, tying design decisions directly to business goals and customer outcomes.

What you'll bring to the role

We are looking for a designer with 5+ years of experience focused on complex, strategic, and metrics-driven design projects.
