About the role

  • SENIOR IT OPERATIONS ENGINEER CloudZero is hiring a Senior IT Operations Engineer who treats IT as a product instead of a help desk.
  • You will work with our IT leadership to keep our internal systems quiet, fast, and secure.
  • You will also lean on AI every day to do it.

Responsibilities

  • Every helpdesk ticket that hits our support tool, is a signal.

Requirements

  • 5+ years running and configuring real IT or cloud infrastructure at a growing company.
  • 2+ years of hands-on automation work in Workato, Okta Workflows, Python, Bash, or similar.
  • You have used modern AI tools to ship actual work, not just an experiment.
  • Familiarity with the IT toolkit: JAMF (including packaging and deployment), Okta SSO, Slack, Jira, Google Workspace.
  • 2+ years of operational time inside GCP, Snowflake, and/or AWS.
  • You have stitched SaaS tools together with webhooks, REST APIs, and event hooks.
  • You are not satisfied with closing a ticket without knowing why it appeared.
  • You can take a vague request and produce a clean outcome.
  • You are exceptional with people and have a customer-first mindset.
  • Experience automating employee lifecycle (joiners, movers, leavers), including directly integrating HRIS systems.

Nice to have

  • Time at a cloud-native or developer-tooling company.
  • AV and meeting-room tech experience for our in-office spaces.
  • Practical familiarity with SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar frameworks.
  • Familiarity with UKG or other HRIS systems is a plus.
  • Examples of AI agents or automations you have built that retired a recurring class of work.

Skills

  • When a ticket lands, your first instinct should be "what would make this ticket not exist next week?"
  • A great week ends with fewer open issues and fewer total inbound tickets than the week before.
  • Write Python and Bash that can connect to our SaaS tools together.
  • Treat the Helpdesk queue as a data source. Analyze it, categorize it, and root-cause aggressively.

Company info

  • Some flexibility outside East Coast hours is helpful, given our employees and customers are global.
