    THE ROLE

    We are looking for an IT Support / Operations Engineer to join Baseten

    as we continue to scale our IT team. In this role, you will play a critical part in

    bringing our technical support entirely in-house to provide a seamless, high-touch

    experience for all Baseten employees.

    As we continue to scale, you will be the primary point of contact for day-to-day

    technical issues, allowing you to have a direct impact on our team's productivity

    and overall office environment. This position is ideal for a hands-on problem

    solver who enjoys a mix of hardware and software troubleshooting, user lifecycle

    management, and maintaining the physical IT infrastructure of a modern office.

    While you will focus heavily on elevating our internal support standards, you will

    also assist with systems administration and workflow automation as our company

    evolves. This is a hybrid role based out of our San Francisco or New York office, following our

    standard policy of three days per week in-person to ensure our physical office

    and AV systems remain high-performing and reliable.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    • Serve as the escalation point for day-to-day technical support, diagnosing and

    resolving hardware and software issues across our Mac and Windows fleet

    • Manage user lifecycle administration including provisioning, deprovisioning,

    and access management across all systems and services

    • Own the IT onboarding experience for new employees - from laptop setup

    and account configuration to a smooth first-day experience

    • Maintain and continuously improve office IT infrastructure to ensure a reliable,

    high-performing environment for all employees

    • Build and maintain a knowledge base of self-serve resources to reduce ticket

    volume and empower users

    • Manage IT asset procurement, inventory tracking, and vendor relationships

    • Support new office buildouts and contribute to broader workplace IT planning

    as we scale

    • Identify opportunities to automate workflows and eliminate inefficiencies

    across IT operations

    • Adapt to the evolving needs of a fast-growing company, taking on new

    challenges as they arise

    • Systems administration, including managing admin-level access, configuring

    user permissions, and performing routine maintenance across cloud-based

    services.

    REQUIREMENTS

    • Strong working knowledge of Google Workspace, MDM platforms (e.g.

    Kandji), IdM/SSO solutions (e.g. Okta), and video conferencing tools

    • Proven experience administering macOS at scale, with solid working

    knowledge of Windows environments

    • Hands-on experience with automation tools and a track record of streamlining

    IT processes and workflows

    • Excellent communication skills with a genuine passion for delivering great

    support experiences

    • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a

    fast-paced, ambiguous environment

    BENEFITS

    • Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity.

    • 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents

    • Flexible PTO policy including company wide Winter Break (our offices are closed from Christmas Eve to New Year's Day!)

    • Paid parental leave

    • Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot

    • Company-facilitated 401(k)

    • Exposure to a variety of ML startups, offering unparalleled learning and networking opportunities.

    Apply now to embark on a rewarding journey in shaping the future of AI! If you are a motivated individual with a passion for machine learning and a desire to be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking team, we would love to hear from you.
