We’re a small team wearing many hats, and you’d have a wide variety of responsibilities that include:

→
Administer Google Workspace, manage Identity Provider (IdP), and set up SSO.
→
Manage device enrollment and device scripting in Iru/Kandji.
→
Author, maintain, and audit internal security policies and procedures.
→
Enforce CMMC 2.0 Level 2 and NIST security frameworks with Vanta.
→
Safeguard credentials and secrets across the team using 1Password.
→
Harden AWS account security, IAM policies, and role-based access controls.
→
Secure network access using Tailscale VPN.
→
Develop Infrastructure as Code using Pulumi alongside the infrastructure team.
→
Investigate security incidents and conduct routine vulnerability assessments.

We’re looking for someone with strong IT Engineering skills who shares our most important values:

You’re fanatical about polish. Every detail matters. You love to make sure your configurations are documented, policies are enforced, and nothing slips through the cracks.
You care about correctness. You take pride in the fact that the systems and policies you put in place are airtight and auditable.
You obsess over security. You’re always thinking about the attack surface and how to reduce it without making engineers miserable.
You dive deep. It’s important for you to really know how things work. You read the spec, not just the summary.
You live on the bleeding edge. You’ve got a long list of upcoming platform features you’re excited about and can’t wait for the next nightly to drop.
You’re a great teacher. You know how to communicate security requirements to engineers in a way that makes sense and gets buy-in.
