About the Role

Moove is seeking a Director of Network & IT to own the company's technology infrastructure, from the network in our depots and offices to the identity, devices, and systems every employee relies on.

You will set the strategy, standards, architecture, and vendor direction for the Network & IT function, and lead the team that delivers it. Your first direct report will be our IT Systems Administrator, who runs day-to-day employee support, hardware lifecycle, identity administration, and IT automation. You will set their priorities, review their work, and grow the team as Moove expands.

This is a hands-on leadership role based on-site at our Phoenix office. You will design and run the network and site infrastructure behind our autonomous vehicle operations, while making sure employees across multiple markets and time zones get dependable, secure IT service.
