Responsibilities Own the CAB program end-to-end. Charter, membership, meeting cadence, programming, and meticulous action-item follow-through. Partner with the field to nominate, recruit, and maintain CAB membership; keep the roster current as accounts, sponsors, and priorities evolve. Design each CAB meeting's agenda with Product Management, Product Marketing, and various teams across the organization to ensure strategic alignment and mutual value. Serve as the primary point of contact for CAB members and their executive assistants — managing high-touch invitations, logistics, prep materials, and between-meeting touchpoints. Provide customer insights. Synthesize customer feedback, route it to the right owners in Product and GTM, and track follow-ups to closure so members see their input actively shape Okta's roadmap. Coordinate with other customer program teams to ensure CAB members are not over-asked and every engagement across programs is intentional and respectful of their time. Report on CAB health and impact to Marketing and Sales leadership: Track attendance, engagement metrics, key themes/asks, and the status of commitments made back to customers. Act as the primary customer advocacy lead, partnering cross-functionally to build a streamlined process for identifying top customer voices and championing their success stories across the broader marketing organization. Connect with account teams to capture a customer’s story, building detailed briefs that contribute to
