IT Engineer
CaptivateIQ
As an IT Engineer (P3), you sit at the core of CaptivateIQ’s technology and workforce enablement services. You will own the deployment, administration, and reliability of our internal IT systems, hardware, and SaaS tools, coordinate incident response for IT outages, and serve as an escalation point for complex support issues. You’ll partner closely with Security, People, Finance, and Engineering to deliver a secure, smooth, and scalable IT experience.
This is an experienced individual contributor role for someone who enjoys a blend of hands-on operations, automation, and cross‑functional project work, and who is comfortable owning key objectives and driving them to completion.
Responsibilities
Act as an escalation point for the IT support queue, handling complex issues across endpoints, identity, and core SaaS applications (e.g., Google Workspace, Okta, Slack, Zoom, Atlassian).
Coordinate response efforts for IT incidents and outages, including troubleshooting, communication, and post-incident follow-up.
Manage internal user accounts, groups, and access (joiners/movers/leavers) across identity and critical SaaS systems.
Own and continuously improve onboarding and offboarding workflows in partnership with People, Security, and Hiring Managers.
Deploy, administer, and maintain IT systems and services (e.g., MDM, endpoint security, Zero Trust, collaboration tools, AI platforms, asset inventory).
Manage MDM-controlled endpoints (laptops and other devices), including provisioning, compliance policies, and OS / app updates.
Implement and maintain automations and workflows that minimize manual efforts in provisioning, access changes, and common support requests.
Implement and operate IT controls that support company security and compliance requirements (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001), including access reviews, asset management, and endpoint standards.
Partner with Security on evidence collection, control operation, and remediation of IT-related audit findings.
Ensure IT policies, standards, and runbooks are followed and kept current; contribute to drafting and improving these documents.
Construct and maintain IT guides, runbooks, and knowledge base articles for both end users and IT peers.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Security, Engineering, People, Finance, CX) on IT-related projects such as new tool rollouts, license rationalization, and process redesign.
Identify issues, define OKRs, and deliver end-to-end solutions that measurably improve reliability, security, or user experience.
Stay current on IT trends and emerging technologies; propose pragmatic improvements to our environment.
