Full Job Description
About the role

This role is the operational center of how every employee - across US-Ardmore, US-Remote, Brazil, and Romania - receives, secures, and uses their computer and core SaaS accounts. The right person is equally comfortable scripting in Rippling, tuning CrowdStrike Falcon, modeling a hardware refresh budget, and translating audit / SOC 2 evidence requests into automated reports.

This role is based out of our Ardmore, PA office on a hybrid schedule (2-3 days/week in office).

What you'll do

  • Identity & Rippling: Own Rippling as the source of truth for identity, SuperGroups, and software deployment. Drive password sync across Google Workspace, Rippling, and local PC/Mac; consolidate SuperGroups; build and maintain the Roles Access Matrix; expand native and custom Rippling app integrations.
  • Onboarding & Offboarding: Partner with HR to deliver day-1-ready new hires (accounts, software, hardware, and access fully provisioned with zero manual tickets) and document offboarding archive and handoff workflows.
  • Endpoint Security (CrowdStrike Falcon): Review and enable Falcon product capabilities (EDR, Identity Protection, Spotlight, Fusion SOAR); ensure 100% sensor coverage via Rippling-driven deployment; build coverage validation reports.
  • Google Workspace: Drive context-aware access, OU rationalization, Vault retention, and terminated-employee data workflows.
  • Hardware Lifecycle: Maintain device inventory and replacement calendar; produce FY26 and FY27 hardware budget forecasts; manage Apple Business Manager and Windows MDM strategy; evaluate Rippling Device Management for international procurement; own EOL disposal and trade-in workflows across US, Brazil, and Romania.
  • Reporting & Audit Evidence: Own the Audit, Notifications and Reporting program - weekly patching / compliance reports, Falcon alerting workflows, and the device lifecycle dashboard that backs SOC 2 and customer audit evidence.
  • Internal Tooling: Continue development of the PostgreSQL ram_db (promote to Prod on the Sandbox Cluster; add account management, backups, and recovery) and the AI-built web front-end.

What you'll bring

  • 3+ years administering a modern HRIS-driven identity / device platform (Rippling, Okta, Jamf, Intune, or equivalent).
  • Hands-on experience deploying and operating CrowdStrike Falcon (or comparable EDR: SentinelOne, Defender for Endpoint).
  • Google Workspace admin experience including OU design, Context-Aware Access, and Vault.
  • Cross-platform endpoint management: macOS (ABM, MDM) and Windows (Autopilot / Intune or vendor MDM equivalent).
  • Comfort with SQL and at least one scripting language (Python, Bash, or PowerShell) for automation and report generation.
  • Demonstrated ownership of audit / compliance evidence (SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA) - not just participating in audits, but building the evidence pipeline.
  • Excellent written documentation skills - runbooks, decision memos, internal wiki pages.


Nice-to-haves

  • PostgreSQL administration including backups (pgBackRest / wal-g), PITR, and RBAC.
  • Experience integrating AI tooling (Claude, Gemini, Copilot) into operational workflows.
  • International deployment experience - Brazil and / or Romania a strong plus.
  • Exposure to Quality Management Systems (QMS) or regulated life-sciences software environments.
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code patterns (Terraform, Ansible) even if not used daily in the role.


What success looks like

  • Day 1 of any new hire: accounts, software, hardware, and access fully provisioned with zero manual IT tickets.
  • Single password change propagates to Google Workspace, Rippling, and the local PC/Mac within one sync cycle for 100% of staff.
  • 100% Falcon sensor coverage with a weekly automated report flagging any gap within 24 hours.
  • Published Roles Access Matrix driving automated provisioning and quarterly access reviews.
  • FY27 hardware budget defensible from a per-device inventory with a documented replacement policy.
  • Audit-ready evidence pipeline: SOC 2 controls supported by automated reports, not screenshots collected the week of the audit.
