Build and enforce endpoint management policies across a 99% Apple fleet via Jamf and MDM, ensuring security baselines and a great employee experience
Create dashboards and reporting frameworks that give leadership real visibility into our SaaS spend, cloud posture, and asset health
Write production-quality code daily — Python scripts, API integrations, iPaaS (integration Platform as a platform) workflows (Workato or similar), and lightweight internal tools that solve real problems for our team
Build and maintain integration pipelines that connect our SaaS ecosystem: identity provisioning, automated onboarding/offboarding, license reconciliation, and event-driven workflows
Develop internal tooling and dashboards (Google Apps Script, Python, HTML/CSS/JS) that surface actionable data — from AI usage analytics to hardware fleet health and budget forecasting
Shape and execute our internal AI tools strategy — managing adoption, governance, and usage analytics for platforms like Claude, ChatGPT Enterprise, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor
Evaluate and pilot emerging AI capabilities for IT operations — from AI-assisted troubleshooting to predictive SaaS usage and automated compliance evidence collection
Treat Infrastructure as Code as a default: version-controlled configurations, reproducible environments, and CI/CD pipelines for IT automation deployments
Design automation solutions that are clean, maintainable, and built to last — not just clever scripts, but well-documented, testable, production-grade systems
Lead and mentor a team of 5–6 IT engineers — hiring, coaching, mentoring, and creating real career development paths
Elevate your team’s engineering skills through hands-on mentoring: pair programming, code reviews, architecture discussions, and setting quality standards that raise everyone’s game
Build a collaborative engineering culture where the team ships robust IT solutions that internal customers genuinely value
Help IT engineers grow from script-writers into systems thinkers — teaching them to build modular, testable, well-documented automation they’re proud of
Champion open communication and a strong feedback culture — great teams are built on psychological safety, trust, and transparency
Collaborate across the Platform group to align your team with company objectives and ambitious IT maturity goals
Build roadmaps that balance long-term strategic vision (governance frameworks, scalable architectures) with tactical quick wins that deliver immediate value
Partner with Security and Legal to maintain SOC 2 compliance — owning IT controls, evidence collection, and audit readiness

Lead initiatives that enforce best-in-class governance practices: access reviews, vendor risk assessments, and shadow IT remediation
Embrace an agile “build it and run it” mindset where your team owns what they build, from launch through ongoing security and support
Create a learning environment where experimentation is encouraged and delivery proficiency keeps improving
Lead initiatives that crush manual work, boost efficiency, and raise the bar on governance practices
Be the champion for engineering best practices within the IT function and across the organisation
Requirements
8k+ years in IT engineering, platform engineering, or infrastructure roles — with at least 2 years leading or mentoring a technical team
Strong, demonstrable coding ability in Python — not just scripting, but building well-structured, testable automation with proper error handling, logging, and documentation
Hands-on experience building API integrations and working with RESTful services, OAuth flows, webhooks, and API-first SaaS platforms
Proficiency with at least one iPaaS / workflow automation platform (Workato, Tray.io, n8n, or similar) for building enterprise integration pipelines
Experience building internal tools and dashboards — whether that’s Google Apps Script, lightweight web apps (HTML/CSS/JS), or data visualisation frameworks
Deep hands-on experience with our core stack: Okta (or comparable IdP), Google Workspace, Jamf, and GCP
Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code principles and tools (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar)
Version control fluency — Git workflows, branching strategies, and CI/CD pipelines are second nature to you
A genuine passion for AI-assisted workflows and experience adopting or governing AI developer tools (Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar)
The ability to balance team management with hands-on technical work — you lead by example and stay close to the code
Experience mentoring engineers: you enjoy pair programming, giving thoughtful code reviews, and helping people level up their craft
Experience navigating compliance frameworks (SOC 2, GDPR, ISO 27001) from the IT operations side
A problem-solving mindset that navigates ambiguity with data, curiosity, and a user-first approach — yes, internal stakeholders are users too
A bias for action: experiment, test new approaches, learn from data, and iterate quickly to deliver value
Clear, effective communication in English (written and verbal)
Openness to giving and receiving feedback in a safe, supportive environment
