Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next. ABOUT THE ROLE: Are you a strategic thinker and proven problem-solver with deep expertise in modern IT ecosystems? We're seeking a Sr. IT Systems Engineer passionate about driving automation, maturing enterprise workforce identity and access management (IAM), and architecting scalable, secure SaaS integrations. This senior individual contributor role serves as a key technical resource, partnering closely with IT Services, Information Security, HR, Finance, and Engineering teams. You'll own the deployment and integration of mission-critical IT systems, act as the primary escalation point for complex IT outages and architectural challenges, and guide the evolution of our hybrid infrastructure to support rapid business growth. RESPONSIBILITIES: Lead the design, implementation, administration, and optimization of core SaaS platforms including Okta, Google Workspace, Slack, Atlassian, and other IT tools. Own end-to-end support, monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance tuning of applications, systems, and their complex interconnections—ensuring high availability, security, and seamless user experience. Help architect and advance our workforce Identity and Access Management program
