## Description

We are hiring a Director of IT to architect, build, and operate the internal systems that power a rapidly scaling, multi-entity platform.

This is not a maintenance role. You will define how IT enables speed, security, and integration across a company growing through acquisition and operating in high-stakes, regulated environments.

You will own the design and execution of a unified technology ecosystem-integrating disparate companies, standardizing where it matters, and preserving flexibility where it creates advantage.

This role is pivotal in managing IT systems during growth phases, including M&A integrations, while prioritizing security, innovation, and compliance. The ideal candidate will bring expertise in Microsoft enterprise environments and a forward-thinking approach to incorporating emerging technologies like AI.

Key Responsibilities

 * Develop and execute the overall IT strategy, roadmap, and budget to support business growth, scalability, and efficiency.

 * Oversee the integration of acquired companies' technology stacks into a unified operating platform, minimizing disruptions and maximizing synergies during M&A activities.

 * Manage enterprise-wide IT infrastructure, including networks, servers, cloud services, and applications, with a focus on Microsoft ecosystems (e.g., Azure, Office 365, Active Directory, and related tools).

 * Lead information security initiatives, including risk assessments, compliance programs, incident response, and implementation of best practices to protect sensitive financial data.

 * Collaborate with cross-functional teams to evaluate and integrate AI and agentic tools (e.g., machine learning models, automation agents) to enhance operational efficiency, decision-making, and client services.

 * Ensure IT compliance with industry regulations, including those relevant to defense contractors (e.g., CMMC, ITAR, or similar frameworks) where applicable.

 * Build and mentor a high-performing IT team, fostering a culture of innovation, accountability, and continuous improvement.

 * Monitor emerging technologies and trends in asset management IT, recommending solutions to maintain competitive advantage.

 * Manage vendor relationships, contracts, and service level agreements to optimize cost and performance.

 * The use of MDM in remote applications to track company-issued devices and enforce corporate policies.

 * The use of VPN and endpoint security on company-issued devices, e.g. CrowdStrike

 * Development and enforcement of IT policies to standardize the use of approved IT tools, security, and compliance.
