IT Manager

About Us:
The United States has the poorest maternal and birth outcomes of all developed countries with the underserved, Black, Brown, Indigenous communities disproportionately affected. Nadia Care is working to drastically change the experience of affected communities by reimagining how we deliver meaningful and compassionate care to expectant moms.
Nadia Care’s mission is to improve pregnancy, birth and the postpartum journey for women and their families by reimagining how maternity care is delivered. Our team is focused on building trust-based engagement and wrap-around support for expectant moms at home, in person and virtually to ensure they have all the social support they need for a successful and joyful pregnancy journey. We help our members with care navigation, doula support, assistance with lactation, nutrition, housing, transportation and a wide range of other needs. We leverage technology to support our virtual engagement that allows us to meet all our moms where they are.
We ensure that our members have trusted sources for support, resources, and information throughout their pregnancy, delivery and well into postpartum. Nadia Care does not replace the primary obstetrician or doctor’s relationships. Instead, we support expectant mothers with all other health-related social needs not typically available through their doctors’ offices.
Our Values:
Empathy is at the heart of everything we do. We must always center the experiences of the mothers and families we serve, as well as support and uplift one another.
Collaboration is what makes us stronger. We achieve the greatest impact when we work together, share knowledge, and elevate each other’s strengths.
Resilience reflects our ability to push through challenges, adapt in a fast-changing environment, and remain committed to our mission no matter the obstacles.
The Role:
We are seeking an IT Manager to own day-to-day IT operations, user lifecycle management (onboarding/offboarding), and identity & access management (IAM) for our growing, distributed team.
This is a hands-on, one-person IT and security function. For now, you will be the sole technical resource and the primary point of contact for all IT and security matters, owning the processes end-to-end. As the function grows, there is the opportunity to build and lead a team beneath you. You will report directly to the CISO and serve as their key operational partner on access and security matters.
This role goes beyond execution; you'll set the standards, own the processes end-to-end, and serve as the primary technical escalation point. You'll be provisioning and deprovisioning accounts, managing devices through Intune, driving IAM strategy, managing endpoint security, and making sure the right people have the right access at the right time.
The ideal candidate is senior enough to operate independently from day one with no ramp-up required. You've operated as the sole or senior IT resource at a startup, are comfortable wearing every hat, owning ambiguous problems independently, documenting your work, and balancing reactive support with proactive process improvement.
Schedule: Mon-Fri 8am-5pm ET, and as needed to respond to urgent issues. This role requires living in the Eastern Time Zone.

7+ years of IT support/operations experience, including experience as the senior or sole IT resource
