Okta Welcomes Sagnik Nandy as President of Technology and CTO<\/b><\/p>\n

Former Google Executive to Lead and Scale Okta\u2019s Global Technology Organization<\/i><\/p>\n

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nOkta, Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA), the leading independent identity provider, welcomes Sagnik Nandy as President of Technology and CTO.

\nNandy has built an industry reputation for effectively leading development teams and delivering engineering solutions at scale. He joins Okta after more than 15 successful years at Google, most recently as Vice President of Engineering overseeing several critical components of Google\u2019s core advertising business, the backbone of the company\u2019s growth and revenue. Prior to his time in Ads, he helped build Google’s measurement and analytics offerings, taking several products from inception to market leaders. He has held additional senior leadership roles at Google, gaining expertise in people leadership and end-to-end enterprise technology development and design. Nandy earned a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from UC San Diego and a B.E. from the Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS, Pilani).\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOkta\u2019s vision is to enable everyone to safely use any technology. We\u2019re driven to bring simple and secure digital access to people and organizations everywhere, and with Sagnik at the helm of our technology team, we\u2019re deepening our investment and further asserting the importance of identity,\u201d said McKinnon. \u201cAs an engineer at heart and by trade, I have a special appreciation for Sagnik\u2019s impressive background and depth across enterprise software development, cloud infrastructure, and business-critical systems. Beyond his technical expertise, he\u2019s a strong team builder and understands the importance of people and culture. Sagnik is the right leader to further extend Okta\u2019s technology and market leadership and drive our next phase of innovation \u2014 we\u2019re thrilled to welcome him to the team.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIdentity is the most important and powerful component of an organization\u2019s technology and security strategy,\u201d said Sagnik Nandy. \u201cOkta occupies the critical position as the gateway to digitization for companies large and small across the globe, and the opportunity this creates is tremendous. Okta is uniquely able to address the most pressing technology and business problems organizations face to deliver delightful customer and workforce experiences. I\u2019m excited to build on Okta\u2019s already strong foundation and lead the talented team responsible for the future of development and innovation at the company.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
