À propos de ce poste IT Systems Engineer III chez Ophelia
About the Role
As IT Systems Engineer III, you will improve Ophelia's IT systems by focusing on seamless integration, automation, and security to elevate our employee experience. In this complex role, you will balance hands-on execution with full ownership of IT improvement projects. You will be responsible for developing plans and executing our IT strategy, ensuring the highest quality standards across all projects, and communicating clearly and proactively to bring stakeholders–and at times, the whole organization–-along with you.
In this role, you will oversee and collaborate with the team at our managed service provider for IT issues. The MSP manages IdP/IAM, provisioning/deprovisioning systems, accounts, and hardware. The MSP also handles Level 1 and Level 2 helpdesk support. You will serve as their escalation point for Level 3 issues, approvals, and architectural decisions. You will work closely across the entire organization and directly with employees.
Your role will also be the driving force in our security and IT roadmap progress. We are progressing towards third-party certification, likely SOC 2 Type II (and/or possibly HITRUST) and have many opportunities to continuously improve through projects that you will drive forward. These will simultaneously help employees to have a more seamless security and SaaS experience.
Your role reports directly to our Chief Technology Officer and will collaborate with our Engineering team. You will frequently work with our People team, Legal & Compliance team, and support all employees across the organization, including clinicians and clinical students.
You will also participate in our Security & Compliance committee and meetings, reporting on risks and responses. Depending on the breadth of your experience, you may be involved in production systems design, including data management and transfer, Google Cloud Platform security hardening, and more.
To be successful in this role, you should demonstrate a deep passion for technology and be excited about IT systems, IT capabilities, employee IT experience, and overall, creating a highly effective and highly secure environment. You should already be experienced leveraging AI tools to automate your work, and ship IT integrations. You will have worked in an agile development environment and/or be excited about further developing the habit of iterative project work.
Together, we will help hard-to-reach individuals treat their opioid dependence. While direct experience in this treatment area is not mandatory, knowledge of the healthcare space, including understanding health outcomes, benchmarks, systems, and regulatory compliance (HIPAA), is highly beneficial.
