ABOUT [BASETEN](https://jobicy.com/company/baseten.md)

Baseten powers mission-critical inference for the world’s most dynamic AI companies, like Cursor, Notion, OpenEvidence, Abridge, Clay, Gamma, and Writer. By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production. We’re growing quickly and recently raised our [$1.5B Series F](https://www.baseten.co/blog/announcing-our-series-f/), led by Altimeter Capital, Conviction Partners, and Spark Capital. Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to ship AI products.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for an IT Engineer to design the systems behind how people at Baseten get access, stay secure, and move through their time here. This role builds the controls and automation that our IT Operations team runs every day across identity, client platforms, SaaS, and cloud access.

The goal is a corporate environment that’s secure by default and easy to use: access that’s right from day one, removed when it should be, and provable at any time.

RESPONSIBILITIES

*

Strengthen our identity platform with strong authentication, clean access models, and least privilege as the default.

*

Automate the workforce lifecycle so that joining, changing roles, and leaving Baseten are fast, consistent, and need little manual work.

*

Build reliable pipelines for OS updates, patching, and software deployment that keep the fleet current without disrupting people’s work.

*

Connect device health to access decisions, so a compliant device is what earns access to sensitive systems.

*

Recommend identity and security standards for our SaaS and AI tools, and make the secure configuration the easy path for teams adopting new ones.

*

Bring governance to non-human identities (service accounts, API keys, AI agents) and replace long-lived credentials with better options wherever possible.

*

Manage configuration as code across identity and endpoints to reduce drift, so audit readiness comes from the systems themselves instead of a separate workstream.

*

Give IT Operations well-designed tools and guardrails, so they can handle more requests on their own, safely.

REQUIREMENTS

*

5+ years in IT engineering or corporate security engineering, ideally at a cloud-native company.

*

Strong grounding in identity: SSO, MFA, provisioning, and the protocols behind them.

*

Hands-on experience engineering macOS fleets at scale: MDM, configuration profiles, app packaging and deployment, and endpoint visibility and EDR tooling.

*

Experience automating real workflows in code (Python, Bash, or similar), and comfort with infrastructure-as-code.

*

A working understanding of SaaS and cloud access risks, and how to reduce them without blocking the business.

*

Good judgment about when to build, when to buy, and when to leave something alone.

*

Clear writing, and a track record of working across IT, People, Engineering, Legal, GRC and Security.

BENEFITS

*

Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity

*

(U.S. only) 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

*

(U.S. only) 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.

At Baseten, we are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. We provide equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, genetic information, disability, or veteran status.

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer and will consider qualified applicants with criminal histories in a manner consistent with applicable law (by example, the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, where applicable).

Sample interview questionsHow would you automate the employee joiner, mover, and leaver lifecycle?I would define the authoritative HR source, map role and department attributes to access policies, and automate provisioning through SCIM or APIs. I would include approval workflows for elevated access, event-driven deprovisioning, logging, exception handling, and periodic access reviews.

How do you connect device compliance to access decisions without creating unnecessary friction?

I would establish a small set of measurable compliance signals, such as disk encryption, supported OS version, EDR health, screen lock, and certificate status. Conditional access should progressively restrict sensitive resources while providing clear remediation guidance and a documented emergency-access path.

What is your approach to managing a macOS fleet at scale?

I would use an MDM platform with declarative configurations where possible, standardized baseline profiles, automated enrollment, reliable application packaging, and staged OS update rings. Endpoint telemetry and EDR health would be continuously monitored, with automation for common remediation tasks.

How would you reduce risk from service accounts, API keys, and AI agents?

I would inventory non-human identities, assign accountable owners, scope permissions narrowly, and replace persistent secrets with workload identity, short-lived tokens, or managed secret systems where possible. I would also implement rotation, usage monitoring, periodic reviews, and automatic expiration for unused credentials.

Describe how you decide whether to build, buy, or leave an IT security process unchanged.

I compare security impact, reliability, maintenance cost, integration needs, and time to value. I prefer proven tools for commodity controls, build automation when it removes repeated operational work or enables unique workflows, and avoid changes when the existing process is secure, supported, and proportionate to the risk.
