Partner with technical services and security on the boundary between corporate IT and the hosted product environments. Coordinate with parent-company operating group staff during the decentralization, and manage vendor and licensing relationships. Support SOC 2 and CJIS Security Policy compliance from the corporate identity and endpoint side: access reviews, logging, endpoint hardening, and audit evidence. Coordinate change, incident, and request management through equivant’s ITSM processes (Zendesk and Jira); maintain runbooks and technical documentation. Participate in after-hours support for incidents as needed.

  • Competency with scripting for automation, primarily PowerShell
  • Familiarity with ITSM platforms such as Jira and Zendesk
  • Strong problem-solving ability and excellent written and verbal communication for technical and non-technical audiences, with the judgment to run IT as a service to the business
