Tax Audit is a strong, forward-thinking national company that is #1 in our space, with over 30 years of continued success and growth. Our lean IT teams rely on exceptional employees who use their technical expertise, sound judgement, and collaboration to help move the company forward.

We are looking for a talented, committed, and hands-on IT & Information Security Manager to join a growing and motivated team working in a fast-paced, agile environment. The successful candidate will want to make a difference, work hard, collaborate well, lead with accountability, and help maintain the systems critical to the success of our employee-owned company.

Tax Audit is seeking an experienced, hands-on IT & Information Security Manager to lead IT operations, cloud infrastructure, and information security — including our continued migration to AWS. AWS experience is a core requirement: the successful candidate must be able to architect, operate, troubleshoot, govern, and secure production in AWS environments from both a technical and cybersecurity perspective.

This is a player/coach role reporting to the Director of Technology, managing a technical team that may include Network Engineers, Systems Engineers, and Information Security Engineers, while remaining hands-on across infrastructure, networking, Microsoft 365/Entra , cybersecurity, incident response, risk management, and application security. The role partners closely with Operations, Software Engineering, the Help Desk, Facilities, vendors, and executive leadership, and takes an AI-forward approach to execution using tools such as Claude, Kiro, AWS Bedrock, and Copilot.

• Lead IT operations and information security functions — infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, staffing, vendors, budgets, projects, and policy — and report regularly to executive leadership on risk, operations, and AWS migration progress.
• Manage IT staffing (recruiting, supervision, scheduling, development, evaluation, and performance/disciplinary actions) and build a focused, high-performing technical team.
• Own IT financial management, including budgeting, purchasing, vendor and contract negotiation, licensing/renewals, and AWS/cloud spend.
• Partner with the Help Desk on end-user issues and coordinate communication of infrastructure and security changes.
• Own technical delivery of the company’s continued migration of infrastructure, applications, and services to AWS, including evaluating workloads for migration, modernization, re-platforming, or retirement.
• Design, operate, and govern secure, scalable AWS environments — account structure, networking, compute/storage/database services, logging, monitoring, backup, and cost optimization (full stack detailed under Technical Environment).
• Maintain enterprise infrastructure spanning AWS, Microsoft 365/Entra , networking, firewalls, telecom, datacenter/colocation, and remaining on premises/VMware environments during the cloud transition.
• Oversee production availability, backup, disaster recovery, patching, capacity planning, and change management, with appropriate documentation.
• Own the company’s cybersecurity architecture and posture across AWS, infrastructure, endpoints, applications, and users, including IAM/least-privilege design and AWS-native security tooling (see Technical Environment).
• Lead security operations —…
