Ideal Superpowers

• Experience with Microsoft Intune, Endpoint Configuration Manager, or similar MDM/MAM solutions
• Strong proficiency in PowerShell scripting and automation

• Familiarity with virtualization technologies (e.g., Hyper-V, VMware)
• Knowledge of existing authentication protocols (e.g., Kerberos, SAML, OIDC, FIDO2) and cryptographic paradigms (e.g., PKI and PGP)
• Relevant Microsoft certifications (e.g., Azure Administrator, Windows Server Hybrid Administrator)

Benefits

• 100% employer covered health, dental and vision insurance
• Equity grant
• 401k with company matching

We are trying to crack one of the hardest problems in Computer Science (secure, usable key management), and nothing about that is easy. We'll be spending a lot of time together and we want to make sure that every minute of that is as pleasurable as possible. We have regular social outings to make sure we get to know each on a personal level and we are very flexible with hours to do our best to maximize happiness. We are taking on some of the hardest problems on earth -- it's going to take more than a few smart people -- it takes an elite team.
