Senior IT Manager

About The Position

We're looking for a hands-on, solutions-oriented IT Manager to build our IT function from the ground up and become a true operational partner across the business. As our first in-house IT hire, you'll own everything from device management and SaaS administration to security and compliance working directly with our Engineering and People teams to make sure every butter slice has the tools, access, and support they need to do their best work, as we scale toward powering the next billion changemakers.

Requirements

8+ years of IT experience, ideally at a high-growth startup or remote-first company
Proven ability to build from scratch — you don't need a playbook to get started, and you know how to prioritize in ambiguous environments
Hands-on experience administering Notion at scale — including permissions management, workspace governance, and working cross-functionally to keep it structured and useful
Familiarity with AI tools and how they're being adopted in the workplace — you understand the productivity upside and the security/compliance considerations that come with them
Strong communicator who can translate technical concepts without making anyone feel out of the loop
Security-minded and pragmatic — you understand the tradeoffs and make smart, practical decisions
Experience managing a Mac-heavy, fully remote team and the SaaS stack that comes with it
Someone who genuinely cares about the people they support, not just the tickets they close

Responsibilities

Own all IT operations end-to-end: device procurement & management, SaaS administration, and identity & access management
Administer our Mobile Device Management (MDM) platform and maintain a healthy, secure fleet of Mac and Windows devices
Manage core business tools like Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, 1Password, and more — and evaluate new ones as we grow
Lead IT onboarding and offboarding so every new hire has a great Day 1 (and every departure is handled cleanly)
Own our Notion workspace as a core IT system: manage permissions and access controls, maintain structural integrity as we scale, and partner with teams to ensure it stays organized, useful, and secure
Stay ahead of AI tooling: evaluate, pilot, and govern AI tools across the business, establishing guardrails for responsible use, managing access, and helping teammates get the most out of tools like Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and others as they enter our stack
Build and maintain IT documentation and self-service resources that actually empower teammates to help themselves
Implement and maintain IT security fundamentals: endpoint protection, MFA enforcement, access controls, and SOC 2 compliance support
Serve as the go-to for troubleshooting and support, not as a ticket-closer, but as a genuine partner to the team
Think proactively: identify gaps before they become problems and build the infrastructure for where we're going, not just where we are
