The Opportunity

The IT team at Auros manages company-wide systems and serves as an integration, automation, and support point for the company’s technology initiatives. The Senior IT Systems Administrator, AI & Automation manages critical platforms and helps set the technical direction for how they are configured, integrated, scaled, and secured across a large and varied enterprise tool set and a mixed macOS and Windows environment.

This role can lead platform initiatives end to end, from scoping and design through implementation and handover, and is accountable for the ongoing health, security posture, and lifecycle of the systems they own. Increasingly, that work includes connecting our systems to Automation & AI tooling enabling advanced capabilities in the platforms we already run, and building the integrations and access controls that let those capabilities operate safely.

Where an IT Systems Administrator can execute with approved designs, the Senior IT Systems Administrator produces the design, decides the approach with IT management, and reviews and validates changes requested for platforms they manage. The role is the senior technical escalation point for the IT team and mentors IT Systems Administrators and IT Support Specialists in the systems and practices behind that work.
