The posting

ClassDojo's goal is to give every child on Earth an education they love.

We started by building a powerful network for communication. ClassDojo’s flagship app is the #1 communication app connecting K-12 teachers, children, and families globally. Teachers use it to share what’s happening throughout the day through photos, videos, and messages that make parents feel like they’re there. It’s actively used in over 95% of US schools, reaching over 45 million children in 180 countries, with a team of just around 200 people [1]. We are now beginning to use this network to give kids the best learning experiences in the world, far beyond those a standard school can provide.

We hire for talent density. Our team comprises the most talented, entrepreneurial, and innovative teammates from around the world, with experience in education and large scale consumer internet companies, including Instagram, Netflix, Dropbox, Stripe, Uber, Y Combinator, and more. We’re building a company where the most talented people want to work. We believe you’ll do the best work of your life here—and you’ll pioneer the future of education, too.

As IT Lead you are ClassDojo's IT function; owner & operator, reporting to the CTO, covering identity, devices, SaaS, security operations, vendors, and our AI platforms for roughly 350 people.

The function already runs on automation and AI-assisted triage rather than effort. You inherit it with a documented handover, keep it efficient, make it your's, make it better, and make it legible to people who are not you.

What you’ll do:

  • Own identity and the employee lifecycle: Okta, Google Workspace, and an HRIS-driven pipeline where access changes fire automatically with an audit trail the systems produce.
  • Own a Mac-first MDM fleet at near-100% coverage, passwordless authentication at 100%, and assist response on security incidents.
  • Run and own IT operations end to end: onboarding, offboarding, support, and the AI triage and self-service that handle most of it, treating repeat request as a defect to remove.
  • Govern a 50+ tool SaaS stack, the IT budget and vendors.
  • Apply governance for Claude and ChatGPT accounts, use AI and automation to take manual work out of IT.
  • Keep IT-owned SOC 2 controls audit-ready with evidence that comes from the systems.

You will be a match if:

  • You have owned and operated IT alone at 200+ staff, including identity in Okta, Google Workspace, and Slack, and a HRIS-driven lifecycle that ran unattended.
  • You have owned a production Mac fleet under MDM, including a migration or baseline rebuild
  • You have administered ChatGPT and Claude (or comparable) for a company, use them daily, and have built automations that replaced manual IT work with a measurable result.
  • You automate by default: script, API, log, admin console, and you can automate entire request categories.
  • You have practical security judgment and have worked inside a SOC 2 environment.
  • You support people directly and well, and can quote your own support numbers.
  • You write documentation people follow and explain technical decisions to executives in two sentences.
  • You have an ownership mindset and do not wait for perfect requirements or handoffs.
  • You live in the US, East or West Coast, and can travel to San Francisco.

Bonus - You have experience with:

  • AWS IAM Identity Center and Terraform, or other config-as-code you could apply to Okta and Google.
  • Office buildouts, BYOD policy rollouts, international contractors, Windows and ChromeOS

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
