Senior Developer Content Advocate, Social & Community (Auth0)

Requirements

• Experience: 4+ years in developer advocacy, developer relations, or a community-facing technical role, with clear evidence of sustained public engagement with developer audiences.
• Established Social Presence: You have an active, authentic presence on X (and ideally other developer platforms). You don't need to be famous, but you should have a track record of engaging meaningfully in technical conversations and a following that reflects that. Share your profile, we will look.
• Technical Credibility: You can hold your own in a conversation about JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, authentication flows, API design, or web architecture. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but developers should never feel like they're talking to a marketer.
• Speed and Editorial Judgment: You can assess whether something is worth responding to, draft something sharp, and ship it; all within a short window. You understand the difference between being fast and being reckless.
• Communication: Exceptional written English with a voice that feels natural on social platforms, clear, opinionated when appropriate, technically honest, and never corporate.
• Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Identity protocols (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML) and web security best practices.
• Content Versatility: Experience producing short-form video (screen recordings, explainer clips, Loom-style walkthroughs) for social distribution.
• Network in the Ecosystem: Existing relationships or mutual rec

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. Job Description Okta is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to become the voice of Auth0 in the developer community, primarily on X (Twitter), but extending across every platform where developers talk, argue, ship, and share. We don't need someone who can "do social media." We need someone who already lives in it : someone whose timeline is full of framework debates, shipping threads, and hot takes on the latest security disclosure, and who wakes up knowing what developers are talking about before the rest of the company does. In this role, you will own Auth0's presence in the public developer conversation. You'll engage authentically with developers, amplify what we're building, surface what the community actually cares about, and help us move at the speed of the discourse. You'll turn real-time community signals into action, whether that's a timely thread, a piece of rapid-response content, feedback routed to the product team, or a connection with an influential voice in the ecosystem. If you've built a following by being genuinely useful and opinionated in developer circles, and you want to do that full-time for one of the most widely-used identity platforms in the world, this is the role. Core Responsibilities Community Listening & Trend Response: Dedicate time to actively monitoring developer conversations on platforms like Twitter/X, Reddit, and Hacker News. You will identify emerging trends in identity/security and mentions of Auth0, converting these insights into immediate opportunities. This could range from drafting a thoughtful reply or a "hot-take" blog post to commissioning a video explainer or routing critical feedback to the Product/Marketing teams. Own Auth0's Developer Presence on X and Beyond: Be the primary voice representing Auth0 in real-time developer conversations on X, as well as Reddit, Hacker News, Bluesky, and other platforms where developers gather. Post regularly, engage authentically, and build a consistent presence that developers actually want to follow. Turn Social Into a Feedback Channel: Systematically capture developer pain points, feature requests, praise, and criticism from public conversations and route them to Product, Engineering, and Marketing with context. You are the bridge between what developers say in public and what the company does next. Create Fast-Cycle, High-Signal Content: Write threads, short posts, quick takes, and lightweight explainers that ride the moment. When a topic is trending, you should be able to ship something valuable within hours, not weeks. Longer-form content (blog posts, video scripts) is secondary but expected when the moment calls for it. Collaborate With Internal Teams: Work closely with Product, Engineering, Developer Relations, and Marketing to ensure that what you're seeing externally informs what we build and how we talk about it. Help shape launch strategies, messaging, and positioning based on real community signal.
