About the Role

This is a high-ownership IT leadership role at a fast-growing AI fintech company in New York. You'll be the end-to-end owner of all IT infrastructure — from identity and access management to device security and SaaS operations — playing a critical role in scaling the company safely and efficiently through its next phase of growth.

What You'll Do

  • Own identity, access controls, and employee lifecycle systems across the organisation, including Google Workspace, Okta, and the full SaaS application stack.

  • Manage a Mac-first endpoint environment end-to-end, including MDM, security baselines, patching, and device compliance.

  • Design and build automated onboarding and offboarding workflows that provision new employees in minutes.

  • Own corporate security fundamentals including endpoint security, access controls, and SOC 2/ISO 27001 audit readiness.

  • Manage and rationalise the company's SaaS stack across provisioning, licensing, and vendor lifecycle management.

  • Leverage AI tools and custom automations to eliminate repetitive IT tasks and scale operations without adding headcount.

  • Run day-to-day IT operations across identity, devices, networking, and office infrastructure, troubleshooting and resolving issues directly.

What We're Looking For

  • 5–15 years of experience in IT administration, with end-to-end ownership at a high-growth startup (ideally 50–300 employees).

  • Hands-on experience implementing an Identity Provider (Okta or equivalent) with SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Proven experience deploying and managing MDM solutions such as Jamf or Kandji in a Mac-first environment.

  • Experience supporting an in-person engineering team through rapid headcount scaling (50+ new hires).

  • Solid background in endpoint security, ZTNA, and compliance frameworks including SOC 2 and/or ISO 27001.

  • Strong stakeholder and vendor management skills, including license negotiation and SaaS stack optimisation.

  • Clear, confident communicator able to translate IT and security concepts for non-technical audiences.

  • Experience at a Series A–D startup within the last three years.

  • Bonus: Technical degree (CS, physics, math, or engineering) and active use of AI tools to automate IT workflows.
