Job description

The IT Manager owns the reliability, security, and continuous improvement of the corporate technology

environment across Prometheus Ventures and its portfolio of businesses, including construction,

development, and technology operations. This is a hands-on leadership role combining infrastructure and

systems administration, cybersecurity, employee support, vendor oversight, and pragmatic adoption of

emerging technology and AI.

The ideal candidate can establish shared standards while accommodating different business needs, protect

sensitive company and client information, and move comfortably between strategic planning and solving

technical problems. The role partners with the CTO and product engineering teams but does not own

software product development.

Key Responsibilities

Portfolio IT Strategy & Governance

• Partner with the CTO to maintain a prioritized IT roadmap, budget, policies, and service standards across entities.
• Define shared versus entity-specific systems, permissions, licensing, data boundaries, and onboarding/offboarding processes.
• Inventory technology assets, dependencies, vendors, and risks; support integration of new entities and teams.

Infrastructure, Cloud & Endpoints

• Administer and improve office and remote networking, Wi-Fi, firewalls, VPN/zero-trust access, servers, storage, and cloud services.
• Manage identity and access management, SSO, MFA, device provisioning, MDM, patching, endpoint protection, and lifecycle replacement.
• Maintain resilient collaboration, file sharing, email, backup, recovery, and connectivity services for office, remote, and field personnel.
• Document architecture, configurations, access ownership, recovery procedures, and system dependencies.

Cybersecurity, Privacy & Resilience

• Own security baseline and ongoing risk management: least privilege, privileged access, logging, vulnerability remediation, phishing defense, and security awareness.
• Develop and test incident response, ransomware recovery, business continuity, and disaster recovery procedures; coordinate external security partners when needed.
• Assess third-party software, integrations, and vendors for data access, security posture, contractual obligations, and privacy risk.
• Support applicable customer, contractual, insurance, and regulatory security requirements; maintain evidence and practical controls.

AI Enablement & Emerging Threats

• Evaluate and help deploy approved AI productivity tools and workflows with clear security, privacy, and data-handling guardrails.
• Understand risks from shadow AI, confidential data leakage, prompt injection, malicious content, deepfakes, AI-enabled phishing, and unsafe agent permissions.
• Establish policies for employee AI use, approved models and integrations, retention, access to enterprise data, and human oversight of automated actions.
• Partner with the CTO and engineering teams on secure use of AI services, APIs, service accounts, and automation without taking ownership of product engineering.

Business Applications & Field Technology

• Support core business systems across construction, development, and technology entities, including productivity suites, finance/ERP, Procore, Autodesk, Bluebeam, and related platforms as applicable.
• Ensure secure, usable access for job sites, traveling staff, high-performance workstations, and distributed teams.
• Improve integrations, license utilization, workflows, and user adoption while reducing duplicated tools.

Service Delivery, Vendors & Leadership

• Own responsive IT support, escalation, ticket prioritization, service metrics, and employee experience.
• Manage managed-service providers, security vendors, telecom providers, hardware suppliers, and software contracts.
• Provide clear communication, documentation, training, and recommendations to leadership and employees.
• Remain hands-on with troubleshooting, implementation, and incident coordination; lead internal IT personnel as the function grows.

Qualifications

Required

• 5+ years of progressive IT experience, including ownership of infrastructure, support operations, and cybersecurity controls.
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft 365 and/or Google Workspace, identity platforms, networking, cloud services, endpoint management, and backup/recovery.
• Demonstrated experience securing distributed users, multiple offices, or business units and managing third-party IT partners.
• Ability to independently troubleshoot technical issues, prioritize risk, document systems, and communicate effectively with executives and nontechnical teams.
• Practical understanding of modern AI tools and associated security/privacy threats, or a demonstrated ability to develop that expertise quickly.

Preferred

• Experience supporting multiple legal entities, holding companies, acquisitions, or diverse business lines.
• Background in construction, development, field operations, or engineering-intensive environments.
• Experience with AWS/Azure, zero-trust architecture, security monitoring, compliance frameworks (such as NIST CSF or CIS Controls), and incident response exercises.
• Familiarity with AI governance, LLM integrations, agentic automation, and securing service accounts and API access.
• Relevant certifications such as Microsoft, AWS, Cisco, CompTIA Security+, CISSP, or equivalent practical experience.

What Success Looks Like

• Secure, dependable technology across all Prometheus Ventures entities with clear ownership and minimal avoidable downtime.
• Consistent identity, access, device, backup, and incident-response standards, with appropriate separation of entity data.
• Faster employee support, predictable vendor performance, transparent IT costs, and fewer redundant systems.
• Safe, useful AI adoption that improves productivity without exposing sensitive information or granting excessive automation privileges.
• An IT foundation that scales with new offices, projects, operating companies, and technology initiatives.
