About the role
What you’ll do
- Propose, implement, design, and continuously improve internal IT infrastructure and end-user systems.
- Define and optimize onboarding/offboarding workflows and lifecycle milestones through automation and core system integrations.
- Design and maintain scalable architectures for mobile device management (MDM), identity providers (SSO/IdP), and comprehensive endpoint security.
- Serve as the primary technical escalation point and SME for complex issues across corporate hardware, OS ecosystems, core networking, and enterprise SaaS platforms.

Who you are
- Inherently driven to anticipate operational issues early and execute durable, long-term technical solutions.

- Strong administrative experience with Identity & Access Management platforms (e.g., Okta, Active Directory, Azure AD) alongside enterprise MDM suites (e.g., Jamf, Intune).
- Advanced troubleshooting and diagnostics capabilities across corporate hardware, OS configurations, core network routing protocols (DNS, DHCP, VPNs, firewalls), and SaaS tools.
- Verifiable proficiency with scripting and code-driven automation using languages like Python, Bash, or PowerShell to eliminate manual help desk toil.
Nice-to-haves
- Prior experience configuring and maintaining core corporate SaaS ecosystems at scale (e.g., Google Workspace, Slack, Jira, Confluence).
- Practical familiarity with endpoint security baselines, identity governance frameworks, and audit compliance requirements.
- Proven track record supporting and scaling secure access for highly distributed, remote-first technology organizations.
