The Senior Manager of IT Infrastructure will be responsible for the design, implementation and operational leadership of infrastructure services supporting a laboratory.

Reporting to the IT Director, the Senior Manager has primary accountability for infrastructure services delivered through managed service provider relationships, including network, hosting, cloud platforms, end-user computing, and foundational security services.
