Wanna join the adventure?

Our Golden office is growing, and we're looking for an IT Administrator to join our international IT team. You'll be the go-to person on the ground for our two Colorado sites, while contributing to IT activities across all of our offices worldwide.

You'll focus most of your time on end-user support in office, with a path to owning our global IT service desk within your first six months. We're looking for someone who is passionate about technology, has a customer-centric personality, and can translate technical problems into plain English. This is not an entry-level position, and there's plenty of room for mentorship to help you grow your technical chops!

  • Support clean room and lab operations (network setup, environmental controls, specialized hardware)
  • Help colleagues with the procurement of new software tools and IT equipment
  • Support the IT team during investigatory and regulatory audits

Onboarding & Application Administration (25%): Keep Loft running smoothly.
  • Work with our People Team to run employee onboarding across all offices, and be the on-site IT contact for all Golden new hires
  • Provision Mac, Windows, and Linux laptops for new employees via our MDM tooling (Fleet)
  • Create and manage permissions for end-user SaaS accounts (Okta, Google Workspace, O365, Slack, Atlassian, etc.)

Documentation (15%): At Loft, documentation is as important as completing the task.
  • Document new and existing projects / systems
  • With direction from IT leadership, maintain and update IT's internal doc repos (how-tos, IT policy, etc.)

Facilities Care (10%): Join the team in charge of taking care of our Colorado offices.
  • Provide assistance and perform break/fix work for AV conference rooms
  • Assist in network upgrades / expansion efforts
