ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on Senior IT Systems Engineer to help build and operate the systems that enable Hex employees to do their best work.
IT at Hex spans far more than traditional helpdesk. This role will own critical parts of our employee technology environment, including identity and access, endpoint management, SaaS administration, onboarding and offboarding, office technology, asset management, and the automation that connects these systems together.
As Hex grows, our goal is to build an IT organization that is exceptionally reliable, secure, and easy to interact with. Employees should be able to get the tools and access they need quickly, common workflows should happen automatically, and our systems should be designed so that we can scale without simply adding more manual work.
You will be a senior technical owner within IT and work closely with Security, People, Finance, Engineering, and external partners. You’ll help set the technical direction for IT with the CISO while remaining deeply hands-on: designing systems, implementing automation, debugging difficult problems, improving existing infrastructure, and stepping in when something important needs to get fixed.
We are especially interested in people who are excited about how AI and automation are changing IT operations and want to rethink how a modern technology company should run its internal systems.
WHAT YOU WILL DO:
- Own and improve core IT infrastructure across identity, endpoints, SaaS applications, employee lifecycle management, office technology, and asset management
- Build automation and AI agents and integrations that eliminate repetitive manual work and allow IT operations to scale with the company
- Manage and improve our endpoint fleet, including device provisioning, configuration, compliance, patching, and inventory
- Establish strong operational standards for IT systems, in
