IT Manager

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.
