• Identity, Access & Endpoint Management: Own the enterprise identity and access ecosystem (Okta, Google Workspace, RBAC, lifecycle management) and endpoint management stack (Jamf), driving standardization, automation, and seamless onboarding/offboarding experiences across all employees.
• AI Adoption & AI Security: Lead the safe adoption of AI across the organization by defining governance, security, and usage policies, while championing AI-first IT operations through automation and AI-powered tooling to reduce cost and improve efficiency.
• Security, Compliance & Risk: Partner closely with the Security team to enforce zero-trust principles and identity-driven security, support SOC 2 / HIPAA compliance, and own IT-related incident response and protection of our systems globally.
• IT Operations & Employee Experience: Own global IT operations including SLA delivery, SaaS governance, and asset lifecycle management, while continuously improving employee experience through automation, self-service, and scalable support models across regions.

• Working familiarity with enterprise AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT Enterprise, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, or domain-specific copilots) and a genuine interest in adopting and governing them at scale.
• Awareness of AI-related security risks - shadow AI, data leakage to LLMs, third-party AI vendor risk - and the curiosity to grow this expertise as the field evolves.
• Working knowledge of HIPAA and SOC 2.
  
  

• Highly committed, ownership-driven, and self-motivated.
• Strong strategic thinking and prioritization; able to balance day-to-day operations with multi-quarter roadmap execution.
