Manager, IT & Network

As a Senior IT and Network Engineer, you will engineer, automate, and scale ChargePoint's global workforce systems and campus network infrastructure from our Campbell, California headquarters. You will operate at the intersection of modern systems engineering and enterprise networking—architecting automated endpoint management pipelines, engineering enterprise identity and access platforms (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID), and designing high-performance, resilient campus network and firewall fabrics.

In this hands-on engineering role, you will replace manual administrative overhead with scalable code and automated workflows. You will build zero-touch provisioning pipelines across macOS and Windows fleets (Kandji, Intune, Autopilot), leverage APIs (Microsoft Graph, Okta Workflows/APIs) to automate lifecycle and access flows, and engineer robust zero-trust conditional access policies. In parallel, you will engineer campus network environments, MDF/IDF infrastructure, and partner with other department teams to design dedicated, secure network fabrics for charging station testing and validation.

Operating 100% on-site at Campbell HQ, you will serve as the principal technical escalation and engineering authority for critical identity, endpoint, and network infrastructure. You will bridge software-defined systems automation with physical hardware and campus networking, ensuring ChargePoint's enterprise infrastructure is secure, observable, and built for rapid global scale.
