2d•$100,000 - $120,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Luxury Presence is seeking an AI-First IT Engineer to join their lean IT team. This role is crucial for driving the company's AI-first transformation, focusing on tools, workflows, and systems that enable a small team to support a growing company without being overwhelmed by manual tasks. The ideal candidate will be AI-forward, comfortable with automation, and possess a strong sense of ownership. This is a hybrid role based in Austin, TX, requiring 2-3 days per week onsite.

Requirements

5-10 years in IT engineering, systems administration, or a similar hands-on IT role.
Deep experience with Google Workspace administration at the org level.
Experience managing an MDM platform (Kandji, Jamf, Intune, or similar) across multiple operating systems, with EDR.
Track record of building automations that replace manual work – you reach for code or no-code tools to do it.
Operate with extreme ownership. Take projects from start to finish without needing much guidance, and don't wait to be told what's next.
Bring a security mindset to identity, access, and device management.
Write clearly. Documentation isn't an afterthought, it's part of how you work.
Comfortable being one of three people responsible for IT at an entire company, and thrive on that kind of scope.

Nice To Haves

Experience with Serval, or comparable AI-powered IT support/automation platforms.
Hands-on experience with Rippling, Deel, or similar HRIS platforms for provisioning and directory data.
Scripting or automation experience (Bash, Python, PowerShell, n8n, Zapier, or similar).
Prior exposure to Claude, ChatGPT, or other AI tools used operationally, not just casually.

Responsibilities

Take full ownership of Serval, driving ticket deflection from manual resolution toward AI-assisted and self-service resolution.
Evaluate and pilot Serval Journeys (or equivalent tooling) to automate onboarding and offboarding provisioning workflows.
Build and maintain automations across Claude, Notion, and Slackbot that cut manual IT work wherever it shows up.
Own provisioning and de-provisioning across our SaaS stack, ensuring access is granted and revoked accurately and on time.
Lead the Rippling integration for directory sync, using it to reliably determine manager, title, and department for every employee, so the right tech stack reaches the right person automatically.
Administer Google Workspace end to end: user lifecycle, groups, security settings, and day-to-day support.
Administer Iru MDM (formerly Kandji) across macOS, iPadOS, and Windows, with EDR enabled and enforced fleet-wide.
Own procurement and asset lifecycle management: hardware purchasing, deployment, tracking, and retirement.
Drive day-one readiness for every new hire: all required tools and access provisioned and working before their start date.
Step in on help desk tickets directly to back up the Onsite IT Support Specialist during peak load or time off.
Document everything. Own and build out our IT process documentation in Notion/Serval so institutional knowledge doesn't live in one person's head.
Work in close daily collaboration with the Director of IT and the Onsite IT Support Specialist as a tightly coordinated three-person team.
