Why we're looking for you 😎

We're looking for an IT Cloud & Governance Lead to own Port's internal IT systems, identity lifecycle, and governance processes as we scale globally and progress toward FedRAMP authorization.

Port is expanding rapidly into enterprise and federal markets, and we're managing an increasingly complex and sensitive SaaS and infrastructure environment. We need a leader who can build scalable processes, strengthen our security and compliance posture, and ensure our internal systems evolve to support fast, high-quality growth.

In this role, you'll partner closely with Security, GRC, Engineering, and Finance to implement best-practice controls, automate lifecycle workflows, and drive operational excellence across the company.

Who you'll work with 👯‍♀️

You'll report to the Head of IT and work closely with the CIO, Security team, GRC Program Manager, and Engineering/DevOps teams. You'll partner with business system owners across all departments to ensure governance standards are met. You'll also work with Finance on procurement and vendor management.

What you'll do 💼

• Own the IT systems & employee lifecycles - manage identity lifecycle, MDM, endpoint security, and SaaS access management across the company.
• Implement and maintain GRC-related IT controls, including SSO, encryption, device posture enforcement, and centralized logging.

• Partner with business system owners to uphold governance best practices and ensure systems align with security and compliance requirements.
• Maintain and evolve the SaaS catalog, ensuring continuous review of ownership, access controls, and lifecycle management.
• Drive the SSO roadmap, integrating the majority of our SaaS applications into a unified identity platform.
• Represent IT in the SaaS procurement process to ensure tools meet governance, security, and integration standards.
• Develop and scale IT governance processes, automating workflows such as new system onboarding and access provisioning.
• Continuously strengthen our enterprise IT governance and security posture as the company grows.

What we're looking for 📝

• 5+ years of experience in IT systems administration or corporate IT operations.
• Proven expertise in identity management platforms (e.g., JumpCloud, Okta, Azure AD), MDM solutions (Jamf, Intune, Kandji), and endpoint security.
• Experience overseeing IT systems to ensure alignment with compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP.
• Strong technical depth across SaaS ecosystems, networking fundamentals, and device management.
• Experience managing IT systems for high-growth organizations (100-500+ employees).
• Excellent collaboration, documentation, and communication skills across teams and functions.
• Familiarity with automation and system integrations to streamline IT workflows.

Nice to have 🌟

• Direct experience with FedRAMP authorization processes and continuous monitoring.
• Hands-on experience with SCIM provisioning and API-based integrations.
• Experience automating IT and compliance workflows using scripting (Python, PowerShell) or low-code tools (e.g., Zapier, Workato, N8N).
• Background in IT security, audit, or governance roles.
• Experience managing IT in high-growth SaaS or tech startups.
• Exposure to procurement governance, vendor risk management, or SaaS contract management.
