WHAT YOU'LL DO

At Seakeeper, we're redefining what's possible on the water - and we need technology leadership that can scale with our ambition.

You'll oversee enterprise infrastructure, cloud architecture, cybersecurity, service delivery, and technical governance while serving as the leader our teams turn to when challenges are complex and stakes are high. This isn't a role for someone who leads from the sidelines. We're looking for a true player-coach - someone who can set the vision, develop the team, and drive priorities while also rolling up their sleeves to troubleshoot critical issues, review architecture, lead major initiatives, and actively contribute to technical problem-solving. Part strategist, part architect, and part hands-on operator, you'll help shape the future of technology at Seakeeper while ensuring the business remains secure, resilient, and ready for what's next.

Driving Service Excellence
  • Leading Service Desk operations and IT service management practices
  • Ensuring a high-quality technology experience for employees across all locations
  • Overseeing Microsoft 365, endpoint management, device lifecycle processes, and IT support operations
  • Partnering closely with HR to deliver seamless onboarding and offboarding experiences


Strengthening Business Resilience
  • Owning disaster recovery planning and technical recovery readiness
  • Supporting business continuity planning and incident response exercises
  • Ensuring mission-critical systems remain resilient, recoverable, and well documented


Leading Strategic Technology Initiatives
  • Delivering critical infrastructure and security projects that support business growth
  • Establishing governance processes that balance business priorities with technology risks
  • Developing and maintaining a clear technology roadmap that aligns with company objectives


Developing High-Performing Teams
  • Leading, coaching, and mentoring infrastructure, cloud, and support professionals
  • Creating a culture of accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing
