  • Architect, build and maintain scripts, automations, and integrations between SaaS platforms and internal services to reduce manual effort, improve operational efficiency, and create a better end-user experience.
  • Support InfoSec and compliance across the IT estate by contributing to incident response, resolving complex technical issues, and partnering on systems, access, and infrastructure improvement projects.
  • Produce and maintain clear technical documentation, runbooks, and operational guides so systems are supportable, repeatable, and easy to manage at scale.
  • Work closely with internal stakeholders and external vendors to deliver high-quality technical implementations, drive improvements, and ensure solutions meet business and security requirements.
  • Provide hands-on support for day-to-day IT operations team, including troubleshooting, ticket and maintenance workflows, onboarding and offboarding, hardware lifecycle management, and office technology support where needed.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience running Okta and our VPN / secure remote access as code. Group rules, sign-on policies, IdP routing, SCIM provisioning, and VPN access policies, all defined in Infrastructure-as-Code and shipped via PR review.
  • Proven experience implementing, maintaining, and improving IT systems, SaaS integrations, and network-connected services in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce clear documentation, manage multiple priorities, and work effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Experience with Okta Workflows, or comparable low-code orchestration. Event-driven flows hitting SaaS APIs, with error handling and idempotency.
  • A pragmatic, service-minded approach with strong user empathy and the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical colleagues.
  • FCA-regulated environment experience.
  • Experience with Change management, audit evidence, access reviews, and security posture (UK GDPR / DPA).
