Background

Brett Coin was looking for a challenging position in the next generation of tech companies. After being approached by some of the larger names like Slack and Zoom, he joined Okta as the head of talent acquisition. Now, nine months later, he reflects on what drew him to this unique brand, and how he helped them transition from an organization with little operational structure, to a focused, scalable and process-driven company. “Thirty days in, I realized there was a lot of building to do. There were a lot of building blocks missing here.” Listen in as Brett Coin outlines his strategy for growth in a data-driven market in our latest Up neXt episode.
