Givebutter has been certified as a Great Place to Work™ every year since 2021, and is the #1 rated nonprofit software company on G2 across multiple categories.

Our mission is to empower the change maker in all of us. We believe giving should be fun, so you’ll want to do it again, and we also believe that work should be fun, so that you’ll have the greatest impact. We are excited to hear from talented people who want to work with other talented people in making the world a butter place—and have fun along the way.

We're looking for a hands‑on, solutions-oriented Senior IT & Business Continuity Manager to own Givebutter's IT operations and compliance program and become a true operational partner across the business. As our first in-house IT hire, you'll report to our VP of Engineering and work closely with our Sr. Platform Engineering Manager, and our Chief of Staff and our People team to ensure every Butter Slice has the tools, access, and support they need to do their best work.

This role has a clear scope: approximately 70% IT operations (device management, SaaS administration, identity lifecycle, onboarding/offboarding) and 30% GRC and compliance project management
. We're also hiring a dedicated Security Engineer who will own the technical security posture of our production systems — cloud infrastructure hardening, fraud prevention, and incident response. Your lane is the IT and GRC layer: keeping the business tooled up, access controls clean, and our compliance certifications (SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI) moving forward through Vanta, our GRC platform.

• Manage core business tools like Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, 1

• Lead IT onboarding and offboarding so every new hire has a great Day 1 (and every departure is handled cleanly).
• Own our Notion workspace as a core IT system: manage permissions and access controls, maintain structural integrity as we scale, and partner with teams to ensure it stays organized, useful, and secure.
• Stay ahead of AI tooling: evaluate, pilot, and govern AI tools across the business, establish guardrails for responsible use, manage access, and help teammates get the most out of tools like Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and others as they enter our stack.
• Build and maintain IT documentation and self‑service resources that actually empower teammates to help themselves.
