We're looking for an IT Systems Administrator to own our internal IT operations end to end. This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, takes pride in running a tight, well-organized IT function, and knows how to build systems that scale. You'll be the go-to person for everything from onboarding new hires to managing our SaaS tool stack and supporting our path to SOC 2 compliance.

Identity & Access Management

• Administer Okta across our full tool stack — managing SSO, SCIM provisioning, and app integrations

• Onboard and offboard users across both Okta and non-Okta applications

• Add and deactivate tools in Okta as our stack evolves

• Manage and track access for vendors and contractors, ensuring appropriate permissions are granted and revoked promptly

IT Onboarding & Endpoint Management

• Own the new hire IT onboarding experience — from laptop setup to tool access on day one

• Manage device enrollment, configuration, and compliance through Iru

• Maintain hardware inventory and manage device lifecycle

SaaS & Vendor Management

• Serve as the point of contact for IT tool vendors

• Identify integration requirements for new tools and manage their setup and deprecation

• Maintain documentation on our tool stack, access policies, and vendor relationships

SOC 2 Readiness

• Partner with our Systems Team to support SOC 2 compliance efforts

• Help implement and manage our future compliance platform, such as Vanta.

• Ensure IT processes around access, onboarding, and offboarding meet audit requirements

• 3–5 years of experience in a corporate IT or systems administration role, ideally at a tech company

• Hands-on Okta experience — you've set up SSO integrations and managed provisioning, not just administered existing configs

• Experience with an Apple-focused MDM — Iru/Kandji, Jamf, or similar

• Familiarity with SOC 2 requirements and ideally experience working in or toward a SOC 2 environment

• Experience with compliance platforms like Vanta or Drata is a plus

• Strong communicator who can work cross-functionally with operations, engineering, and external vendors

• Organized and process-oriented — you document what you build and build for repeatability
