- Act as the primary point of contact for all internal IT matters, staying in constant sync with the CIO on new initiatives and resource allocation.
- Adapt the best of AI technology to the daily engineering and non-engineering working routine.

- Conduct monthly performance reviews using Rippling, providing structured feedback.
Requirements
Must Haves:
- Proven experience leading and scaling IT / infrastructure / platform engineering teams (5+ years in a management role).
- Strong background in cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and DevOps/SRE practices.
- Strategic thinking with the ability to co-define and execute on technical roadmaps.
- Hands-on understanding of infrastructure security, IAM, and FinOps disciplines.
- Experience translating compliance and audit requirements (e.g. SOC2, ISO 27001, or sector-specific frameworks) into operational controls.
- Comfort owning or governing internal AI tooling and agentic workflows, with a security-first mindset.
- Excellent people management skills: hiring, mentoring, career development, and performance management.
- Ability to communicate complex technical topics clearly to C-level stakeholders and non-technical audiences.
- Practical experience with security incident response and threat modelling, ideally including supply-chain and adversarial/state-actor scenarios.
- Comfortable operating in a fully remote, async-first, globally distributed environment.
- Strong organisational and prioritisation skills, able to juggle multiple initiatives and stakeholders simultaneously.
