Job Description & How to Apply Below
A globally distributed, remote-first role focused on automating and securing internal IT infrastructure, with a heavy emphasis on infrastructure-as-code, scripting, and workflow-automation tooling. The position blends hands-on helpdesk work with deep engineering on next-generation IT automation running on Kubernetes. It suits someone who enjoys moving between traditional IT operations and modern systems engineering.
Responsibilities- Build the next generation of IT workflow automation using Temporal and Go running on Kubernetes, with thorough code reviews and an open design process.
- Collaborate with the engineering team on dogfooding internal identity-governance and access-policy tooling, surfacing improvements that show up directly in the product.
- Harden security and automation for macOS endpoints and integrate with platforms such as Panther, Jamf Pro, Okta, Rippling, and Google Chrome Enterprise.
- Write IT automation using Terraform, shell scripts, and Go to provision and manage infrastructure.
- Handle traditional IT helpdesk tasks including access requests, lockouts, integrations, and user configuration across tools such as Okta, Rippling, and Zendesk.
- Willingness to roll up sleeves across traditional IT tasks while also diving deep into Kubernetes and Go with Temporal.
- Programming experience in Go; prior experience with Temporal is a bonus.
- Linux systems engineering experience plus hands-on Kubernetes exposure.
- Infrastructure-as-code experience with Terraform and solid shell scripting skills.
- General IT security and administration background.
- Familiarity with data warehousing concepts and platforms such as AWS Redshift, Fivetran, and DBT.
- Remote-first and globally distributed, with autonomy over day-to-day work.
- Extensive health coverage, an annual expense budget, and rest-and-recovery policies designed to support sustained focus.
- Retirement savings plans and dedicated professional development opportunities.
