IT Engineer

Essential Duties

• Automating traditional sysadmin duties with AI based workflows.
• Administer the Microsoft 365 GCC High / Entra ID tenant: identity, licensing, groups, and access.
• Run onboarding/offboarding end to end — accounts, hardware, access provisioning, and deprovisioning.
• Provision, image, and manage Windows and macOS endpoints.
• Manage companywide tools (e.g. maintain and assigning licenses etc.).
• Troubleshooting software, hardware, and networking issues.
• Triage and resolve software, hardware, and network issues across the team.
• Maintain office network infrastructure (UniFi stack, switching, Wi-Fi, VLAN segmentation).
• Maintain IT and operational documentation, runbooks, and asset records.

Requirements

• You have a claude code subscription.
• You never let the silly engineers call you a blocker.
• 3+ years administering Windows/macOS endpoints and a cloud identity platform (Microsoft 365 / Entra ID strongly preferred).
• Hands-on experience with MDM (Intune, Jamf, or equivalent) and SSO/SCIM provisioning.
• Working knowledge of TCP/IP networking, VLANs, DNS, DHCP, and VPN.
• Comfort operating independently with broad scope and limited oversight.

Nice to Have

• Experience in a CMMC, NIST 800-171, or another regulated/compliance-bound environment.
• Experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms (Orin, JetPack).
• Active security clearance, or eligibility to obtain one.
• Comfortable with Debian based distros, Yocto Project, device tree, and kernel driver experience.

Benefits

• Meaningful Early Equity: You aren't just an employee; you are a foundational owner. Your contributions directly drive the value of your stake in the company.
• Direct Roadmap Influence: Forget the bureaucracy of big defense. You will have a seat at the table, directly shaping our product and technology trajectory from day one.
• Mission-Critical Work: We don't build for "what if." We build systems the Department of War actively needs to counter immediate, real-world threats.
• The Builder's Playground: Work in a brand-new lab fully optimized for rapid prototyping, equipped with NVIDIA Jetsons, high-end scopes, and 3-D printers.
• 100% Employer-Paid Premiums: We cover 100% of your medical, dental, and vision insurance premiums and cover 50% of healthcare premiums for your dependents.
• Unlimited PTO: We value results, not clock-watching. Take the time you need to stay sharp and recharge.
• Zero Red Tape: You report to the founders. You have the autonomy to make technical decisions that would take months of committee approval at a larger firm.
• Austin-Based Culture: Join an onsite team in Austin, TX, where we prioritize high-bandwidth collaboration and rapid field-testing.
• Relocation Assistance: We want the best talent in the room. If you aren't in Austin yet, we’ll help you get here, to make your transition to the Silicon Hills seamless.
