Director of Information Technology (Seattle or San Francisco)

Seattle, WA or San Francisco, CA

Beale Infrastructure Group is a rapidly growing developer and owner of next-generation digital infrastructure assets, focused on delivering hyperscale data center campuses for leading global technology companies. The Company specializes in complex, large-scale projects that require significant coordination across land acquisition, power procurement, utility partnerships, and construction execution.

Operating at the intersection of real estate, energy, and technology, Beale’s platform is designed to address the increasing demand for high-capacity, energy-efficient data infrastructure driven by cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and enterprise digital transformation. The Company partners closely with utilities and local communities to secure reliable power solutions and enable long-term, sustainable development.

Backed by Blue Owl Capital’s Real Assets platform, Beale benefits from deep institutional capital, a disciplined investment approach, and an experienced leadership team with a proven track record in digital infrastructure development. The Company is in a high-growth phase, with an expanding pipeline of projects across key U.S. markets.

Position Overview

The Director of Information Technology will own the day-to-day operation of Beale’s corporate technology environment. This is a hands-on, user-facing role, working alongside our managed IT services partner and our VP of Corporate Security.

This individual will be directly responsible to establish or update cross-platform capabilities, such as Beale's identity and access management (IAM); administer our systems; manage the device fleet; maintain and evolve the productivity suite; and activate further security capabilities and controls.

Working closely with executive leadership and cross-functional business partners, the Director will keep a fast-moving company productive and secure from day-one onboarding to conference-room AV to tested backups while building the practical IT controls that support the Company's ISO 27001 and audit-readiness programs. The ideal candidate is a ‘roll-up-your-sleeves’ operator who has led IT evaluation, selection, and implementation in a growing company (start-up experience preferred);

directly deployed and administered IAMs; fluent across Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace; and enjoys fixing things as much as planning them.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the day-to-day owner and administrator of Beale's corporate technology environment - Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace tenants, identity, devices, networks, and business applications.
• Maintain, optimize and migrate (as necessary) email, calendar, file management & sharing, chat & collaboration, etc.
• Design, deploy, and administer Beale's identity and access management (IAM) foundation on Okta or a similar identity platform SSO/SAML and OIDC integrations across the SaaS estate, SCIM-based automated provisioning and deprovisioning, MFA with phishing-resistant factors, and role- and group-based access.
• Configure and operate the security capabilities, including but not limited to Defender, Intune, Entra conditional access, and Purview in partnership with the VP of Corporate Security.
• Operate identity day to day: onboard applications into SSO, maintain separated admin accounts, keep joiner-mover-leaver access timely and least-privilege, and run quarterly access reviews.
• Manage the mixed device fleet hands-on: MDM enrollment, configuration profiles, encryption, patching, and asset inventory from purchase through retirement.
• Run employee onboarding and offboarding end-to-end with HR and our managed IT services partner, so new hires are productive on day…
