Your scope spans corporate IT — offices, data center, endpoints, and SaaS — while also playing a supporting role in our autonomous trucking operations. You will lead a small IT team while remaining an active individual contributor — owning escalations, driving projects, and setting technical direction. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-moving environment where they can build scalable processes, mature our security posture, and directly shape how IT operates as the company grows.
