Job description

At Gigs, we believe that great IT should be frictionless: Team members should get the right access, the right tools, and the right support to be productive.

You’ll be joining the Security & IT team as the third team member.

We are pragmatic and aware of the trade-offs of a small team, making strategic decisions on where to show excellence and what we can’t bite off right now. You will work on our day-to-day operational load, build systems and automations to reduce that operational load, as well as inform our strategic direction., * Design, build, and maintain automation workflows across our corporate systems stack (Okta, Google Workspace, Google Cloud, Jamf, Humaans HRIS, Linear issues …)

  • Improve our joiners, movers and leavers flows to eliminate manual toil and ensure security consistency
  • Improve our IT request workflows, as well as developing self-service solutions that empower employees to solve their own IT needs
  • Own macOS device management: procurement with zero-touch enrollment, configuration right-sizing, app and OS updates, and day-to-day productivity
  • Support our global offices (Berlin, London, Amsterdam, San Francisco, New York) with infrastructure and integrations.

Requirements

  • Experience at a high-growth startup or scaleup (50-500 employees)
  • Experience in roles at the intersection of IT, Security and Engineering, like IT Engineer, IT Systems Engineering, TechOps, or Security Engineer
  • Coding fundamentals: comfortable writing and reading scripts (Shell, JavaScript, Ruby)
  • Experience with:

  • MDM solutions (Jamf, Kandji, or similar) in a macOS-first environment
  • Identity providers (Okta, Google Workspace) and HRIS integrations
  • Workflow and AI platforms (Zapier, Tines, Claude, Notion AI, or similar)
  • Cloud environments (GCP, AWS)

Systems thinking with the ability to design end-to-end workflows, not just individual scripts
