We're looking for a hands-on and pragmatic IT Operations Manager to take end-to-end responsibility for our internal IT operations and help us scale in a structured, secure, and efficient way. In this role, you will be responsible for IT operations across the organization — combining classic IT operations leadership with a strong focus on execution, prioritization, and continuous improvement. The IT Operations Manager reports directly to the CFO, with a dotted line to the CPTO. You will lead a small internal IT team while also operating across a broader, matrixed setup of internal stakeholders and external service providers to ensure alignment, consistency, and high operational standards. This means acting not only as a team lead, but as a connective force across the organization — working closely with Engineering (DevEx and DevOps), external partners, and IT-aligned resources embedded in other teams. You will ensure coherent ownership, strong security practices, and joined-up thinking across everything from employee tooling to developer environments and underlying infrastructure. This is a high-impact role in a growing company, where you'll help us continue moving towards more mature and professional IT practices — without losing speed or flexibility. You should be comfortable leading through influence as much as through direct authority.
Job Responsibility:
Own and manage IT operations across the organization, ensuring stable, secure, and scalable systems supporting daily business needs
Lead and develop a small internal IT team, providing direction, prioritization, and hands-on support when needed
Act as the primary IT counterpart to Engineering, ensuring alignment across DevEx, DevOps, and internal IT environments

Oversee and collaborate with managed service providers supporting areas such as licensing, security monitoring (SOC), and security awareness training
Maintain and improve IT infrastructure, including cloud platforms, networks, endpoints, and business applications
Support security and compliance efforts in collaboration with the CISO function, contributing to frameworks such as ISO 27001 and CIS Controls
Lead incident response and contribute to disaster recovery and business continuity planning
Manage IT vendors, contracts, budgets, and asset lifecycle to ensure cost-effective and scalable solutions
Drive continuous improvement of IT processes, governance, and documentation in a pragmatic and business-aligned way
Requirements:
Proven experience owning and operating internal IT environments in a growing organization
Solid background in IT operations, with working knowledge of information security and compliance frameworks
Experience leading teams, with a hands-on and pragmatic leadership style
Strong understanding of modern IT infrastructure (cloud, networking, endpoints, SaaS ecosystems)
Familiarity with AI tools, combined with curiosity and a proactive mindset to explore, learn, and adopt new technologies in a secure and pragmatic way
Familiarity with operating models such as CloudOps, FinOps, and infrastructure-as-code

Nice to have:
Clear and effective communication, with the ability to translate technical challenges into concrete, business-relevant insights
Confidence in presenting risks, trade-offs, and recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including leadership
Strong relationship-building skills, balancing a service-oriented mindset with the ability to set boundaries and make decisions
A calm, pragmatic, and solution-oriented approach in an environment where priorities and processes are not always fully defined
A structured yet flexible mindset, improving processes, governance, and security without introducing unnecessary rigidity
The ability to create alignment, clarity, and consistency across teams in a distributed and matrixed organization
