Position Summary

Over the past year, 10 Federal has shifted from buying third-party software to building platforms in-house. That creates the need for someone to own the IT operations and infrastructure layer underneath that work.

This is a broad, hands-on role in a company of under 100 people with an outsized technology footprint. You will own end-user IT, corporate network infrastructure, identity and security administration, and Azure platform operations end to end, working closely with the engineering team building our in-house platforms.

Network & Physical Infrastructure

• Own the Raleigh office network: SonicWall firewalls, HP Aruba switching, wireless, VPN, and remote access
• Serve as escalation point for site-level connectivity supporting gates, cameras, kiosks, and other on-site technology

Identity, Security & Compliance

• Own identity and access management across Microsoft, including Entra ID, conditional access, and MFA
• Design and maintain a security group and permissions model that reflects our actual org structure
• Administer SharePoint site architecture and permissions; use Microsoft Purview for data governance and retention
• Own the joiner-mover-leaver process end to end
• Serve as tactical counterpart to our third-party cybersecurity partner: tune configurations, administer tooling, and execute remediation

Azure Platform Operations

• Set and enforce standards for resource groups, naming, tagging, and role-based access
• Define repeatable provisioning for development, staging, and production environments, and own the deployment path to production
• Set the model for managed identities, service accounts, secrets, and platform security
• Monitor Azure cost, optimize spend, and automate infrastructure wherever possible

Backup, Disaster Recovery & Incident Response

• Own the backup strategy and the technology disaster recovery plan, including documented procedures and periodic testing
• Contribute technology input to the company-wide business continuity plan
• Triage and resolve technology incidents and escalate per the incident response plan

AI & Automation

• Find recurring tickets, manual provisioning steps, or compliance reviews that can be automated or handled by an AI agent
• Evaluate and adopt AI tooling to improve IT operations

Qualifications

Required

• 3+ years of professional IT experience (5 preferred) with hands-on system ownership, not only ticket-queue work

What Success Looks Like
