## Description

Cascade is a rapidly-growing MSP (managed service provider), offering tech services in New York, the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and beyond. We provide a world-class service to high-end clients in the Financial Services industry.

**Location:**

**On-site in Los Angeles.** This is an in-person role, not a remote position.

**About the role:**

We're looking for a Systems Administrator who can use their technical depth and customer service skills to keep our clients’ environments secure, stable, and running at their best and play a key role in our company's growth. The majority of this role is hands-on systems administration: managing identity, endpoints, email, networks, and security tooling across our client base, and leading improvement projects from start to finish. A growing part of that work is AI: we’re helping clients adopt public and private AI/LLM tools safely, and this role will be central to deploying, securing, and supporting those tools for users at scale. You’ll work on-site with clients and their VIP users in Los Angeles, with occasional remote support when those users are traveling.

**Some responsibilities include:**

-   Administering, maintaining, and securing client systems, including identity, email, endpoints, and network infrastructure.
-   Deploying, administering, and supporting public and private AI/LLM platforms across client organizations, from pilot through company-wide rollout.
-   Configuring AI tool security and governance (SSO, provisioning, data retention, connector and integration permissions) in line with client policies.
-   Training and enabling users on AI tools, building documentation and best practices, and serving as the go-to resource for AI questions and troubleshooting.
-   Managing user lifecycle (onboarding and offboarding), access, and permissions across client environments.
-   Deploying and maintaining device management, patching, backup, and security tooling across Mac and Windows fleets.
-   Planning and executing state of the art technical improvement projects (migrations, rollouts, and infrastructure upgrades) for clients.
-   Working on-site at client offices and directly with client VIPs to tackle a diverse range of challenges.
-   Providing escalation-level technical support in person, by phone, email, and chat, including occasional remote support for VIPs while traveling.
-   Being available, flexible, and on-call for periodic after-hours and/or weekend work, including maintenance windows.
-   Being able to work with a team to solve difficult problems.
-   Creating and maintaining technical documentation, runbooks, and system configuration records.

## Requirements

**We are looking for someone with:**

-   A home base in Los Angeles or West Hollywood, or willingness to relocate to the West Hollywood area, and the ability to work in person at client sites. (This is not a remote role.)
-   Eligibility to work in the United States.
-   At least 7 years of IT experience, including 3+ years in a systems administration role, with evidence of growth.
-   Experience deploying, configuring, and supporting AI tools for users at scale, including SSO/SCIM provisioning, admin and data-governance settings, usage policies, and user enablement, is a plus.
-   Strong hands-on experience administering Microsoft 365 / Entra ID and/or Google Workspace.
-   Demonstrable experience administering and supporting Mac OS environments. Windows experience is a plus.
-   Experience with Jamf Pro or other MDM platforms, including configuration profiles, policies, and patch management.
-   Solid networking knowledge.
-   Familiarity with endpoint security and SSO/identity platforms (e.g., EDR tools, Okta); familiarity with backup platforms is a plus.
-   Working knowledge of bash and/or PowerShell scripting for automation is a plus.
-   Exceptional customer service skills, including a clear communication style, very high reliability, and full ownership of all issues to complete resolution.
-   Availability for periodic after-hours or weekend on-call work, including maintenance windows.
-   Optional experience supporting audio/video systems (Crestron, Savant, etc.)

## Benefits

**Compensation, benefits, and perks:**

-   Above-market base salary of $140,000-$160,000 annually for excellent technical and communication skills.
-   95% coverage for medical/dental/vision premiums and more.
-   401k with employer match.
-   $125 monthly technology reimbursement.
-   $150 monthly meal stipend.
-   $100 healthy living expense program.
