What you’ll bring

Required

• 7–10 years in IT engineering, corporate infrastructure, or a related discipline, with demonstrated ownership of systems end to end in a large or fast-growing organization
• Endpoint engineering across macOS and Windows, including MDM and fleet-scale configuration management
• Identity platform experience — Okta and/or Google Workspace preferred, though any IdP works — including SSO, SCIM, and lifecycle automation
• Corporate networking and secure access — Wi-Fi, VPN, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewall fundamentals — plus hands-on experience with SASE, conditional access, and device trust
• An AI-native approach to the work — you already use AI to write code, troubleshoot, and automate, with a clear sense of where it adds value — backed by real scripting ability (Python, Bash, PowerShell) and comfort with APIs
• Strong people skills and a service mindset — you take complex escalations yourself and handle them with patience, clarity, and genuine care for the person on the other end

Nice to have

• Experience in financial services or another regulated environment, including SOC 2, FINRA/SEC, or similar control frameworks and audit cycles
• Experience supporting a fleet of 500+ endpoints, or a company through a period of rapid headcount growth
• Experience standing up or replacing a core IT system — an IdP, MDM, or ITSM platform — rather than only operating one
• Experience building internal tooling or AI-assisted workflows for IT operations
• Infrastructure-as-code or configuration management experience (Terraform, Ansible, or similar)
• Exposure to M&A integration, office buildouts, or other IT work driven by company growth

Details

• Location: San Francisco, CA — hybrid, 3 days/week in office
• Schedule: Full-time, with occasional scheduling flexibility needed around planned deployments
• Requirements: Background check and security awareness training prior to system access
