In this role, you will deliver exceptional customer service to both our internal teams and our financial advisors while supporting a hybrid macOS and Windows environment. You'll manage and optimize SaaS platforms such as Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Rippling, and more. We are a small, senior team, and everyone contributes across every area of IT: employee support, advisor support, identity and access, endpoints, SaaS administration, and infrastructure. One area worth calling out is advisor work. At Savvy, advisors are our clients, and you'll share that workload with the rest of the team, including regular face-to-face and video interaction. A recurring piece of it is migrating advisors into Savvy: moving their email and files into Google Workspace and managing the DNS changes that come with it (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and record cutovers across providers like Cloudflare, GoDaddy, and Google Cloud DNS). We do this on a weekly basis, so strong DNS fundamentals and client-facing polish matter here. Our IT mission is to keep our employees and advisors productive by removing technical roadblocks quickly and efficiently. We're looking for someone resourceful who thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in the behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running smoothly. Responsibilities * Support a hybrid macOS/Windows environment, including ticketing and troubleshooting * Share advisor support and onboarding workload with the rest of the IT team, delivering white-glove service in person, over video, and through our support channels, working within documented SLAs * Execute advisor migrations into Savvy: email and file migrations into Google Workspace, DNS record management and cutovers (including SPF, DKIM, DMARC), and phased transition planning that minimizes disruption * Manage DNS across multiple providers and registrars (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Google Cloud DNS), including email authentication records for marketing and compliance tooling * Own the IT provisioning and deprovisioning process for employees and advisors: account creation, platform setup, endpoint allocation and MDM enrollment, and access management, with same-day deprovisioning as the standard * Work closely with cross-functional teams (Legal, Finance, Advisor Onboarding Team, People Ops, etc.) to ensure seamless employee and advisor experiences; clearly articulate issues, potential solutions, and timelines to both technical and non-technical stakeholders * Maintain and support office networking, AV systems, and physical security infrastructure (badge readers and cameras) * Develop, document, and improve scalable IT processes, runbooks, and user-facing resources in Notion * Contribute to automation of the employee and advisor lifecycle (SCIM provisioning via Rippling, group-based access) and to our SaaS governance work (app inventory, admin hygiene, access reviews) * Support SaaS vendor relationships and coordinate with external vendors for IT equipment procurement, service agreements, and renewals * Take ownership of small and large projects, and act as an escalation point for technical issues before escalating to leadership or other teams ## Related Videos - [The Golden Age of Email: Owning the Inbox in the Age of AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100128-the-golden-age-of-email-owning-the-inbox-in-the-age-of-ai) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [Stack Overflow: Community and AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/600-stack-overflow-community-and-ai) - [Agentic employees in world's most downloaded FinTech app](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100123-agentic-employees-in-world-s-most-downloaded-fintech-app) - [Migrating half a million users to a new payment service provider](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/730-migrating-half-a-million-users-to-a-new-payment-service-provider) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [13 AI Tools You Have to Try](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/219-13-ai-tools-you-have-to-try) - [Dev Digest 119 - ❤️ === ❤️](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/454-dev-digest-119) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline)
