You'll partner closely with IT leadership on projects - rolling out new tools, hardening our security posture, and improving how a globally distributed team gets support - and you'll mentor junior IT staff along the way. We're looking for someone who can work independently, communicate clearly across time zones, and bring both hands-on troubleshooting skill and sound judgment about risk and scale., * Own and administer core business systems - identity/SSO, endpoint management (MDM), Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, and other SaaS platforms used company-wide. * Design, deploy, and maintain the systems and infrastructure that support a fully remote workforce, including cloud-based directory services, VPN, and remote device management. * Serve as an escalation point for complex helpdesk and end-user issues that junior IT staff can't resolve, and provide guidance and mentorship to help them grow. * Manage IT security fundamentals: endpoint protection, access reviews, MFA/SSO enforcement, patch management, and response to security alerts, in partnership with the security team. * Administer and monitor cloud infrastructure supporting internal IT systems (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including backups, uptime monitoring, and basic cost hygiene. * Lead or contribute to IT projects end-to-end - tool migrations, onboarding/offboarding automation, new-hire hardware programs, and vendor evaluations - from scoping through rollout. * Build and maintain automation and scripting (e.g., PowerShell, Bash, Python) to reduce manual IT work and improve reliability of routine tasks. * Maintain clear, current documentation and runbooks for systems, processes, and incident response. * Ensure compliance with internal IT policies and support external audits (e.g., SOC 2) by maintaining evidence of controls and access. * Partner cross-functionally with People, Security, and Engineering teams to support company-wide technology needs across a distributed workforce. ## Related Videos - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [An Applied Introduction to eBPF with Go](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1075-an-applied-introduction-to-ebpf-with-go) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [Turning Container security up to 11 with Capabilities](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/718-turning-container-security-up-to-11-with-capabilities) - [Debunking the Top 10 Myths about Web 3](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/634-debunking-the-top-10-myths-about-web-3) - [My journey into DevOps world - How it all started!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/545-my-journey-into-devops-world-how-it-all-started) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers)
