**Department:** IT

## Description

**About Echo Base**

Echo Base is a privately funded investment platform focused on special situations and strategic opportunities within the digital asset ecosystem. We acquire, finance and build companies where our operational expertise and capital can unlock outsized value. Our team combines institutional investment discipline with crypto-native insight to identify and execute on complex opportunities across the industry’s most dynamic segments.

**Role Overview**

The Manager, IT Operations will be Echo Base’s internal technology owner. This hands-on role will run the firm’s corporate IT environment and selected web properties, with responsibility for reliable operations, access, security hygiene and sound technical judgment in a fast paced environment.

The ideal candidate is comfortable operating with the breadth and discretion: practical rather than theoretical, security-conscious and able to turn ambiguous issues into clear priorities. In the first 90 days, they will map critical infrastructure and website dependencies, establish operating routines and close priority access, backup, monitoring and release-process gaps.

**What You’ll Do**

-   Own the firm’s technology operating model: systems inventory, access standards, vendor relationships, core IT roadmap and disciplined operating routines.
-   Administer Google Workspace, user lifecycle, groups, access controls, endpoints, SaaS applications and core security settings.
-   Maintain AWS access, monitoring, backup checks and routine operations; engage specialist engineers for material architecture or security work.
-   Administer Cloudflare DNS, CDN, SSL/TLS, WAF, redirects, domain configuration and incident troubleshooting.
-   Own the day-to-day operation of internal AI tools and agentic workflows, including integrations, access controls, monitoring, documentation and lifecycle management.
-   Own the corporate website end-to-end: implement content, configuration, CMS and light front-end changes directly; manage releases, hosting, testing, change control and rollback procedures.
-   Manage domains, certificate renewals, asset records, endpoint procurement and access inventories.
-   Provide practical, high-trust IT support for employees, including devices, accounts, connectivity and common software issues.
-   Maintain access reviews, patching, backups, security hygiene and incident procedures; escalate material risks promptly and appropriately.
-   Act as the first technology point of contact for everyone; maintain clear runbooks, system maps and decision records.

**What We’re Looking For**

-   Five or more years of relevant experience in IT operations, technical operations, cloud or infrastructure support, or an internal IT ownership role.
-   Demonstrated experience acting as the primary technology owner in a lean, high-trust environment such as an investment firm, crypto company, fintech, startup, family office, or professional-services firm.
-   Hands-on experience with Google Workspace, AWS fundamentals, Cloudflare, DNS, SSL/TLS, identity and access management, endpoint management and SaaS administration.
-   Experience operating production websites, including hosting, CMS or deployment workflows, release coordination, testing and rollback.
-   Strong security and access-control judgment, including a practical approach to least privilege, backup verification, vendor risk and incident response.
-   Sound troubleshooting judgment: gathers evidence, limits impact, communicates clearly and avoids unsafe production changes.
-   Comfort working independently with executives, employees, vendors and specialist engineers; exceptional documentation habits and professional English are essential.
-   Hands-on understanding of modern AI systems and agentic frameworks, including LLM-based workflows, tool/API integrations, orchestration, evaluation, monitoring and safe production operation.
-   Experience implementing and maintaining business automations or AI-enabled systems, with sound judgment on security, data access, reliability, cost and vendor risk.
-   Nice to have: crypto, digital-asset, fintech, investment-firm, or regulated-environment experience; AWS, Google Workspace, Cloudflare, or security certifications are valued.
-   Nice to have: WordPress or another CMS, Git-based release workflows, lightweight front-end changes, or automation using Bash, Python, or low-code tools.

**What We Offer**

-   Entrepreneurial, high-performance environment with institutional standards.
-   Exposure to complex, frontier credit investments across global markets.
-   Opportunity to help shape the playbook for crypto-native special situations investing.
-   A very competitive remuneration package aligned with seniority, responsibility and performance.
-   Fully remote working arrangements with flexible schedules.
