Remote Level 2 It Support Jobs in Illinois (NOW HIRING)

IT / Information Security Analyst II 

Bloom Credit is hiring an IT / Information Security Analyst II to own day-to-day IT operations and hands-on security work across a fully remote Mac fleet. This is a combined role: roughly 50/50 IT and IS in theory, with the mix shifting by project and business need.

You will work with strong support from the Head of IT/IS and partner across the entire organization—engineering, compliance, product, people ops, and other functions—as identity, devices, access, and security touch every team. You operate with high autonomy in a remote environment.

We maintain SOC 2 and PCI DSS (self-attested) obligations. Experience supporting audits and evidence collection is valued.

• Endpoint lifecycle for a remote Mac fleet (provisioning, configuration, support, offboarding)
• Identity and access: JumpCloud directory / IdP / MDM, SSO app lifecycle, joiner–mover–leaver flows
• Google Workspace administration (mail, groups, Drive, Meet) and related automation where useful
• Helpdesk / end-user support: clear triage, resolution, and documentation
• Asset lifecycle coordination (procurement, shipping, disposition) with existing tooling
• Prefer native integrations and scripted automation over repetitive console click-ops; keep manual break-glass and validation paths documented

• CrowdStrike EDR health, detections, containment, and response coordination
• DLP controls and data-handling practices in daily ops, including policy tuning and exception handling
• SIEM / security signal work in Datadog (alerting, investigation support, tuning with stakeholders)
• Security hygiene: least privilege, access reviews, device posture, exception handling
• Support SOC 2 and PCI evidence gathering with Compliance; keep controls operational, not theoretical
• Zero Trust mindset preferred (identity-centric access, device trust, least privilege)—not required if you learn fast in this model

No single path is required. Degrees, certifications, and on-the-job experience are weighed equally.

• College - Associate's or bachelor's in IT, cybersecurity, CS, or related—or equivalent practical experience
• Certifications - 1–2 relevant certs (e.g. Security+, Google Workspace Admin, JumpCloud, CrowdStrike, CySA+, GSEC) or equivalent demonstrated depth
• On-the-job - ~4–6 years with ownership beyond ticket-only work; can run identity/endpoint/security ops with light oversight

• Fully remote; no traditional office network—access is identity- and device-centric
• Prefer native vendor integrations, then maintained scripts/automation, then console click-ops when that is the right business case
• High-impact actions require clear scope, blast radius, and rollback thinking; Head of IT/IS approves before execution
• Head of IT/IS available for support, escalation, and prioritization—not day-to-day micromanagement

• Clear, concise written communication across the org
• Calm triage under interruption (helpdesk + security signals)
• Ownership of outcomes without waiting to be told
• Collaborative posture—enable teams, don't gatekeep for its own sake
