Job Description

Who We Are

At Statespace we’re using cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and video games to revolutionize the way that humans improve.

Our first product, Aim Lab, is a personalized training platform that helps gamers learn about their strengths and weaknesses and train for the game they love. Aim Lab has over 20 million players around the world and is available for free on Steam and even on Roblox. Aim Lab also has official partnerships with some of the biggest publishers, including Riot, and Ubisoft.

Our team consists of scientists, designers, engineers, and game industry vets coming together from places like NYU, MTV, NASA, Yale, Nintendo, and the NFL. We are well-funded and supported by some of the world’s best investors and entrepreneurs, including Khosla Ventures, FirstMark Capital, Lux Capital, Expa Capital, and WndrCo.

Our Culture

Weird. Non-traditional background. Underdog. Outcast. If people have used any of these words or phrases to describe you…welcome home. Kick-ass engineer or designer without a degree? Come join our team.

We hire talented, self-motivated people and get out of their way. We are based in NYC but have a remote work culture and are looking for exceptional people to join our team regardless of their physical location.

We value performance, not hours worked (or when you work them). We believe you shouldn’t have to miss your kid’s play or doctor’s appointment for the sake of adhering to an arbitrary work schedule.

However, if you are looking for a job where you are happy to just collect a nice paycheck and/or nap under your desk like George Costanza, we are not the right fit for you (we don’t even have desks).

The work we do is hard, and therefore, a key company goal is to mitigate needless obstacles that prevent our team members from accomplishing their goals. To that end, our vacation policy is “take it whenever you want to”, our PTO policy is “take it whenever you need to”. We offer very generous medical, dental, vision, and retirement plans.

At Statespace, we’re looking for an experienced IT Manager to champion our use of technology and software. Our goal is to create a first-class work environment, so we’re looking for someone knowledgeable and passionate about helping people do their best work. As our first dedicated IT hire, you’d be responsible for setting up new team members with equipment, configuring and managing accounts and access, implementing and enforcing security policies, assisting in vendor selection, training the company on software, and more. Given our growth, this could grow into a management role. If you’re excited about the challenge of building a first-class IT practice in a fast-paced environment, we’d love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain the inventory and configuration of company devices, including device management and encryption
• Coordinate with other departments, such as People Operations, to assist team members as they join or leave the company
• Support our teams’ access to resources by managing our account groups and single sign-on (SSO) technologies
• Identify opportunity areas for a growing organization and make recommendations that improve security, productivity, and efficiency of the team through technology
• Research and assist in making vendor partnership selections
• Coach and train others in the organization to leverage company software
• Provide ad-hoc technical support to team members through monitoring our support channels
  
  Ideal Skills
  
• Experience configuring Windows, Mac, and Linux operating system environments as well as a firm understanding of modern computing hardware
• Experience managing organization-level identity management and access
• Experience managing identity providers (IDPs) such as a G Suite / Google
• Workspace or Active Directory
• Experience researching and evaluating software solutions and vendors
• Experience coaching and training team members, with varying levels of technical expertise, on new systems and software
• Experience supporting team members in an IT capacity through remote communications
  
  Bonus Skills
• Experience with Cloud Identity Access Management, such as AWS IAM
• Amazon Web Services certifications (Cloud Practitioner or above)
• Experience leading a team of IT professionals
• Experience in additional IT related domains (security, network, etc.)
• Experience in SOC 2 compliance and audit reporting, and/or compliance with other standards (e.g., PCI, HIPAA, etc.)
  
  We believe in hiring the best, the brightest, and cultivating a culture of collaboration and appreciation. You will receive consideration for employment and will not be discriminated against on the basis of race, creed, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, marital status, citizen status, age, disability, military or protected veteran status, genetic predisposition or carrier status or any other legally protected status.
