About the role
Hi, my name is Bill Miksich, VP Operations at Customer.io, and I'm looking for a Contract IT Specialist to help our globally distributed IT team keep pace as we scale. This is a hands-on, full-time contract role covering the day-to-day: responding to requests, keeping systems running, and supporting our people across a fully remote, SaaS-first environment. You'll be available 8am–5pm daily to jump on whatever the team needs that day. It's a great way to get IT operations exposure at a fast-growing SaaS company, with a possible path to full-time conversion based on performance and business need.
What we value
- Responsiveness — you're quick to jump in and get people unblocked.
- Customer-service mindset — you're just as focused on user happiness as on policy.
- Reliability — you show up ready to tackle whatever comes in.
What you’ll do
- Assist with tier 1–2 IT support across hardware, software, SaaS apps, and remote connectivity with a customer-service-first mindset.
- Support employee lifecycle workflows (onboarding, offboarding, role changes), following established steps and flagging opportunities to improve them.
- Maintain identity and access management tasks — provisioning, SSO, group and role-based access across core systems.
- Help keep the device fleet healthy via MDM — compliance, endpoint protection, patching, and configuration.
- Respond to SOC 2, ISO, and HIPAA compliance requests through evidence collection, access review prep, and control adherence.
- Keep operational documentation current, and pitch in with People, Security, and Engineering on cross-functional requests as they come up.
What we're looking for
- 3+ years in IT support, systems administration, or IT operations, ideally at a remote-first SaaS company
- Hands-on experience with MDM solutions (Kandji, Jamf, Intune, or similar)
- Experience with identity and access management (Okta or similar), SSO, and role-based access
- Comfort using scripting or workflow tools to knock out repetitive tasks
- Strong troubleshooting on macOS (Windows a plus)
- Excellent documentation and communication skills
- Experience supporting SOC 2, ISO, or HIPAA activities (access reviews, evidence gathering, control adherence) is a plus
Compensation & Benefits
This is a contracted engagement at $46–54/hr USD, depending on experience, for an estimated 3-month term, with potential to convert to full-time based on performance and business need.
Our Process
No gotchas, no trick questions - just a clear, human process designed to help both of us make an informed decision.
- 30-minute video call with a Recruiter
- 30-minute video call with the Hiring Manager
- 45-minute Technical Interview
