## About the Role

* Experience administering enterprise identity and collaboration platforms such as Google Workspace, Slack, and an SSO provider, and working code in Python or similar against their SaaS APIs
 * Working knowledge of endpoint management and security concepts, enough to lead diligence on an unfamiliar fleet
 * A proven ability to understand an unfamiliar IT environment quickly and deliver a prioritized view of risk to non-specialists

 * Comfort working autonomously, with ambiguity and confidential information
 * Clear communication with executives, legal and corporate development teams, and engineers at acquired companies

Strong candidates may also have

 * Prior M&A, carve-out, or company-to-company migration experience
 * Experience across the full stack: endpoints, systems, applications, and infrastructure&

## Description

* Lead technical IT due diligence: assess a company's identity, applications, endpoints, and infrastructure, and brief the deal team on risk and effort before close
 * Find the gaps between an acquired environment and Anthropic's security model, rate them, and build the mitigations into the integration plan
 * Define the technical integration plan and its requirements: what moves, where it lands, in what order, and what has to be ready on day one
 * Run the integration: take over administration, migrate people, devices, and data, and retire what's no longer needed, with support from other IT Engineering teams as required.
 * Work with Business Technology, Client Platform, Corporate Network, IT Operations, and Security on their parts of each integration
 * Keep Corporate Development, Legal, People, Finance, and the acquired company's team clear on where IT stands
 * Build a repeatable IT M&A playbook and automate as much of it as possible with Claude
 * When M&A work is light, contribute to core Corporate Systems projects, * 8+ years as a hands-on engineer in corporate IT. You have designed and shipped systems, carried out migrations or integrations yourself, and owned at least one area end-to-end, with experience supporting other areas: identity, applications, endpoints, or corporate infrastructure
