- Own and scale Identity & Access Management (IAM) (SSO, provisioning, RBAC, access governance)
- Implement and improve endpoint/device management (MDM, BYOD, security compliance)
- Replace manual processes (e.g., spreadsheets) with automated, scalable solutions
- Drive systems integration and automation across core tools (Google Workspace, Slack, CRM, etc.)
- Partner closely with Engineering and DevOps to ensure secure, efficient access and workflows
- Improve and standardize onboarding/offboarding and access controls
- Own IT-related security tooling and controls in partnership with external providers
- Manage and mentor a small IT function (1 direct report)
- Act as the face of IT & Security, leading communication, rollout, and adoption across the company
