Some hybrid after 6 months

I am handpicking this hands-on, technically credible Vice President of Technology Infrastructure to lead the strategy, architecture, delivery, and operations of its enterprise technology environment.

This senior leader MUST have begun their career as a hands-on infrastructure engineer and bring deep, practical experience into strategic decision-making and modernization efforts.

The role oversees all infrastructure services, including Azure cloud platforms, enterprise networking, identity and access management, endpoint management, security, and core systems.

Partnering closely with the CIO, security leadership, and firm stakeholders, the VP will drive multi-year infrastructure strategy, cloud modernization, zero trust security, and digital workplace initiatives.

You will report to the CIO, who is great, very sharp, educated, driven, and amazing, and so is the Team. The company always leads with integrity and family-first leadership!
