IT Systems Administrator - aero

ABOUT AERO

Aero is a premium private aviation company redefining the charter flight experience. We combine white-glove concierge service with cutting-edge technology to deliver seamless, personalized travel. Our team is lean, fast-moving, and deeply committed to operational excellence.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

You will own and evolve the technology infrastructure that keeps Aero running — corporate cybersecurity, identity, device fleet, SaaS administration, and internal technical support. As the company’s primary IT leader, you will operate as a senior individual contributor partnering with Leadership, People Ops, and Ground & Flight Operations. This is not a ticket-queue role; we need someone proactive who can shape strategy and execute hands-on.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Identity, Access & Security

• Administer Google Workspace as our core identity platform — user lifecycle, SSO, context-aware access, and audit logging.

• Implement and manage device trust policies and conditional access rules.

• Detect, investigate, and mitigate security events (phishing, account compromise, unauthorized device access), including coordinating company-wide communications with leadership.

• Evaluate and operate security tooling: VPN, firewalls, antispam, and anti-malware.

Device & Endpoint Management

• Manage the full device lifecycle for MacBooks, iPads, iPhones, Windows machines, and peripherals: procurement, configuration, deployment, repair/replacement, and decommissioning.

• Operate Apple device management (Apple Business Manager, MDM profiles and scripts, managed Apple IDs); publish applications and updates to device groups.

SaaS & Vendor Management

• Administer core business platforms including Slack, Asana, and Metabase enterprise subscriptions.

• Evaluate third-party integrations and API access; review NDAs and access-level requirements for external agencies and vendors.

• Partner with Finance to track software spend, analyze trends by department, and build the annual software budget.

Onboarding & Offboarding

• Own user provisioning and deprovisioning across Google Workspace and all SaaS platforms.

• Coordinate device shipments and tech onboarding emails (with setup instructions and tracking) for new hires alongside HR.

• Maintain a unified inventory of company assets — devices and software licenses — tracking assignment, availability, and retrieval/decommissioning when employees depart.

Support & Office Infrastructure

• Serve as the primary point of contact for internal tech support via Slack, email, or the ticket system: account access, password resets, email configuration, and app connectivity.

• Manage shared mailboxes, service accounts, and Google Groups with appropriate security controls.
