What your team does

The IT Systems team at Clio operates at the intersection of emerging technology and operational scale. We lean into a modern tech stack, experimenting with novel solutions to solve complex problems. Our mission is to eliminate friction by replacing "air-prone" and tedious manual tasks with robust, scalable automation frameworks. You will have a high degree of autonomy to shape our automation strategy and influence the technical culture of the team.

A day in your life might look like:

  • Identify opportunities for automation throughout the company and implement solutions that improve the velocity of Clions all over the globe. This might include using Okta Workflows, Workato, or code.

  • Diving into an unknown technical system or business domains, and learning its idiosyncrasies and mechanisms to build robust and informed integrations around it.

  • Deploy and maintain infrastructure for our internal services using tools such as Terraform, Kubernetes, and AWS Lambda.

  • Continually grow and strive to push technical boundaries. 

  • Partnering with other teams and departments across the org to understand their bottlenecks and pain points, and developing automations to solve for them.

  • Act as a mentor for junior members of the team.

What you may have:

  • Practical experience with common Infra as Code tools such as Terraform.

  • Practical experience in at least two of the following:

    • Ruby

    • Python

    • Bash/Shell

    • Golang

  • In depth knowledge in administration of common SaaS environments such as Google Workspace, Okta, Slack, etc.

  • Knowledge of modern MDM systems for both macOS and Windows.

  • Fluency in modern API standards such as REST and GraphQL - and authentication mechanisms commonly used in both.

  • Ability to leverage CI and CD platforms such as Github Actions, Buildkite, etc.

  • Practical familiarity with iPaaS tools such as Workato, Okta Workflows, or Boomi.

  • Experience with leveraging AI to increase velocity.

This is a new role.
