Every role at Ajaia is AI-forward. We expect candidates to use AI in daily workflows across infrastructure monitoring, security auditing, automation scripting, and technical support. AI usage is a core execution requirement, not optional tooling.

• Operational Excellence: Automate internal business solutions and CRM/CMS platforms to minimize manual overhead.
• AI Native Workflows: Use AI tools daily for network ideation, rapid troubleshooting, security variant creation, and QA support.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with engineering, strategy, and growth teams to ensure technical alignment with company milestones.
• Asset Management: Oversee the procurement and maintenance of hardware and software assets for a global, remote workforce.

Job Requirements

• Experience: 3-7 years of experience in IT management, systems administration, or technical operations.
• AI Mastery: Demonstrated ability to use AI-native workflows as a daily execution standard to improve speed and quality.
• Technical Proficiency: Deep familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/GCP), automated business solutions, and security frameworks.
• Smart & Adaptive: Proven ability to exercise high-level judgment in fast-paced, cross-functional startup environments.
• Communication: Excellent communication skills to translate complex technical requirements for non-technical leadership.
• Preferred: Familiarity with AI implementation engineering or software development to better support our technical teams.
