IT Operations Engineer

About the Role

PayMitto is looking for an Implementations Manager to own the onboarding and go-live process for our clients, from contract signature through production launch. You will run day-to-day implementation projects for a portfolio of financial institution (FI) clients, coordinating with engineering, compliance, and client success, and serving as the point person when things get complicated.
You will spend your days moving between client-facing meetings, internal standups, and hands-on problem solving with engineering and vendor partners (Q2, SoCure, Sardine, and similar platforms). We are searching for someone who is equally comfortable running a structured project plan and diving into a technical escalation to figure out what is actually going wrong.

We're looking for an IT Operations Engineer who loves keeping things running and also enjoys getting hands-on with cloud and customer onboarding. This role is a blend of two worlds:

• About 60% internal IT operations, keeping our team productive and secure
• About 40% Azure support, customer provisioning, and integrations

If you like variety, enjoy automating the boring stuff, and want to work closely with cloud engineers, InfoSec, and Implementations, this one's for you.

Our IT Operations Engineer will be based in Atlanta, GA. This is a hybrid role requiring Tuesdays and Thursday in-office at the Battery.

• Monitor and triage the internal helpdesk queue and support staff with day-to-day IT needs

Azure Cloud Support, Customer Provisioning & Integrations

• Create and configure new customer environments across Azure, PostgreSQL, Auth0, and third-party platforms (like Q2)
• Build SFTP file delivery pipelines using Azure Data Factory
• Configure SSO integrations through Auth0
