Identity, Security & Compliance:
Own identity and access management (Microsoft Entra ID / M365, SSO, MFA, privileged access).
Lead our SOC 2 compliance program end-to-end (audit coordination, evidence collection, control operation, and remediation).
Manage endpoint security, vendor reviews, and corporate security incident response.
AI Governance & Information Management:
Establish policies for approved AI tools, assess security/data privacy risks, and manage the corporate information framework.
Must-Have Requirements:
Experience: 5+ years of IT experience, including acting as an accountable owner for IT operations in a distributed or lean environment.
Compliance & SOC 2: Proven experience leading or materially driving SOC 2, ISO 27001, or equivalent compliance/security programs.

MSP & Vendor Management: Demonstrated ability to manage, evaluate, and hold MSPs and external contractors accountable.
Profile: Self-driven, highly analytical, process-oriented, with excellent written communication and documentation skills.

Experience as the primary IT owner in a small-to-midsize company (100–500 employees).
Experience with scripting, APIs, Microsoft Graph, or PowerShell.
