## Description

As an Events & Experiences Designer, you will be a vital, hands-on creative maker driving Okta’s physical presence across our global event calendar.

You will partner closely with art directors, creative leads, and event marketing partners to concept, build, and produce work across our flagship owned moments (such as Oktane and Showcase) as well as our high-velocity third-party and field activations (including AWS re:Invent, RSA Conference, Gartner Symposiums, and Executive Briefing summits).

This role is built for a craft-obsessed practitioner who thrives in the full arc of event creative,from spatial ideation and environmental typography to the rigorous, meticulous prepress work required to ship flawless, fabrication-ready files on tight deadlines.

Responsibilities:

- Concept & Spatial Execution: Translate creative briefs into compelling physical and environmental activations,designing large-format booth graphics, spatial layouts, entrance structures, dimensional signage, and interactive demo zones.

- End-to-End Production Ownership: Take full ownership of production deliverables. Prepare flawless, press-ready, and fabrication-ready art files tailored to precise vendor specifications, architectural scale, and material substrates.

- Scale the Experiential System: Actively implement and evolve Okta’s experiential design system and modular "kit of parts," ensuring consistency, premium craft, and brand recognition across all event tiers.

- Multi-Track Project Management: Autonomously drive several concurrent projects across different stages of the event lifecycle (e.g., concepting one activation, producing another, and prepping print proofs for a third) with high accuracy and composure.

- Cross-Functional & Vendor Partnership: Collaborate directly with Event Marketing, Field Marketing, and external fabrication partners (printers, booth builders, and staging agencies) to ensure design intent translates seamlessly into built environments.

- Brand Quality Assurance: Conduct prepress proof reviews, oversee physical print approvals, and safeguard creative excellence across all physical touchpoints.

Requirements:

- Demonstrated Experience: 4+ years of dedicated professional experience in experiential design, spatial/environmental graphic design, or event production within an in-house creative team or top-tier branding/experiential agency.

- Deep Production Fluency (Required): Proven, hands-on expertise preparing large-format print and environmental graphics for physical builds (tension fabric/SEG, hardwall structures, vinyl wraps, dimensional lettering, and acrylics).

- High-Craft Portfolio: A portfolio showcasing shipped, physical event environments and environmental graphics that demonstrate elevated typography, spatial hierarchy, and production fidelity (photographs of built environments and technical specs preferred alongside 2D/3D visualizations).

- Tool Mastery: Expert-level fluency with Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign).

- Autonomy & Technical Problem Solving: Demonstrated track record of managing overlapping timelines, navigating ambiguous project requirements, and proactively resolving real-world fabrication challenges.

- Collaborative Conviction: Excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate design rationale, incorporate stakeholder feedback thoughtfully, and maintain high standards of visual excellence.

Nice to have:

- Working knowledge of 3D spatial software or spatial visualization tools (SketchUp, Cinema 4D, Blender, or Vectorworks).

- Experience localizing creative for international regional series (EMEA and APJ markets).

- Direct experience communicating with fabrication shops and conducting on-site print/install inspections.

Benefits:

- Health, dental and vision insurance

- 401(k)

- Flexible spending account

- Paid leave (including PTO and parental leave)
