About 1Password

At 1Password, we’re building the foundation for a safe, productive digital future. Our mission is to unleash employee productivity without compromising security by ensuring every identity is authentic, every application sign-in is secure, and every device is trusted. We innovated the market-leading enterprise password manager and pioneered Extended Access Management, a new cybersecurity category built for the way people and AI agents work today. As one of the most loved brands in cybersecurity, we take a human-centric approach in everything from product strategy to user experience. Over 165,000 businesses and millions of people trust us to provide seamless, secure access to their most critical information.

If you're excited about the opportunity to contribute to the digital safety of millions, to work alongside a team of curious, driven individuals, and to solve hard problems in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, then we want to hear from you. Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

We’re looking for a technically strong and systems-minded IT Engineer to lead our endpoint and device management efforts across macOS, Windows, and Linux. You'll play a key role in designing, implementing, and scaling secure, automated processes that support our growing workforce — all while keeping user experience, compliance, and operational efficiency at the forefront.

This is more than a support role: you'll help shape the future of our internal IT infrastructure. From streamlining device lifecycle workflows to driving automation and integrating modern tools, your work will directly improve how our teams operate every day.

The ideal candidate is hands-on with MDM tooling, passionate about building and improving systems (not just maintaining them), and thrives in environments where they can solve meaningful problems at scale. You bring curiosity, a collaborative mindset, and the technical depth to build thoughtful, sustainable IT solutions.

This role reports to the Manager, IT Engineering.

Due to the high volume of applicants we receive for this role, we will be closing applications on Friday, June 27th, 2025 to ensure we can review and respond to all candidates that have applied.

What we're looking for:

  • 2+ years of technical work experience an IT engineering or systems administrator role

  • Hands-on experience managing mid-to-large (150+ employees) enterprise-level, cloud hosted MDM tooling (Windows preferred), such as Intune, Kandji, or Jamf

  • Experience administering common enterprise SaaS applications such as Google Workspace, Slack, Salesforce, Office 365, and Zoom

  • Experience working in and managing ticketing systems such as Freshservice, Jira, or Zendesk.

  • Strong understanding of modern endpoint management, device trust, conditional access, and system administration principles

  • Proven communication and documentation skills, with the ability to thrive in a remote-first, Slack-centric environment

  • Familiarity with IT service provider best practices (e.g., ITIL framework) and change management philosophies.

  • Experience balancing project-based work with unplanned escalations in a Scrum and Agile-centric (sprint-based) planning environment

  • A track record of building or improving IT systems and workflows — not just maintaining them but in building automation.

  • Proven experience setting, reporting on, and meeting ambitious device management goals/OKRs

Bonus Points:

  • Experience with Ai tooling and implementation in a IT environment

  • Experience troubleshooting and managing Linux systems

  • Experience with 1Password Enterprise and Kolide

  • Experience with infrastructure as code and git workflows for IT Engineering

What you can expect:

  • Support and manage all MDM and device management platforms (e.g. Kandji, Intune, Jamf, Workspace One, Kolide)

  • Prepare and enforce policies that align with our device health and compliance goals across Mac, Windows and Linux systems

  • Automate device lifecycle management to align with industry-leading best practices and specific departmental requirements

  • Collaborate with Security and fellow IT team members to enforce endpoint security requirements

  • Assist in troubleshooting MDM related device issues for end-users

  • Identify opportunities for IT automation with the goal of reducing gaps in workflow and operational tasks

  • Support and help scale and evolve our MDM infrastructure in collaboration with Staff and Senior IT Engineers

  • Participate in daily stand-ups and bi-weekly sprint planning with the IT Engineering team

  • Automate device and Identity and Access management processes and contribute to internal documentation

  • Be available for on-call rotational work to ensure uninterrupted support and resolve emergency incidents

  • Build cutting-edge device trust related management
