The posting

Title: Manager, IT

Location: Austin, TX (hybrid) or Dallas, TX (Hybrid)

Reports To: Director, Information Technology

About Hippo:

Hippo was built on a promise: make homeownership effortless. Nearly a decade later, that mission still drives us. We use technology and data to help our customers stay ahead of problems and protect what matters most.

Today, that same tech-native approach powers our work beyond homeowners. Hippo operates as a diversified carrier platform, partnering with MGAs to deliver tailored program solutions that help them grow and deliver better customer experiences. Behind that work is a team that values ownership, curiosity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

If you're energized by building what's next, we'd love to meet you.

About you:

You will be a customer service and support evangelist, leading our support team while also assisting our customers via in person walkup, support tickets, email, and chat. You will work closely with the Director of IT to drive team direction and make continuous improvements to our internal tools, documentation, and processes that directly impact the business.

You love building relationships with customers, business partners, and IT team members alike. You have an extensive background in leading projects and teams, utilizing metrics to drive change, and are passionate about providing the best customer service experience possible. You are also passionate about mentorship and providing direct constructive feedback for continued development.

  • Leverage AI tools to innovate and improve efficiency with Helpdesk processes
  • Co-manage & administer our SaaS environment, including identity access management (SSO integrations), O365, and other major platforms
  • Create comprehensive policy and process documentation for both IT staff and Hippo employees
  • Manage team performance globally (U.S., Poland) through Service Level Objectives, ensuring commitments to Hippo are met and exceeded
  • Lead cross-functional projects as a key stakeholder, highlighting and championing company impact including user experience, security, infrastructure, and others
  • Translate project requirements into actionable objectives and deadlines for IT Support staff
  • Identify gaps in current technology, systems, and operations, and engineer scalable solutions
  • Provide hands-on technical and policy escalation support

Must Haves:

  • 6+ years of experience in a modern IT Support environment
  • 3+ years of experience managing/leading projects
  • 2+ year(s) of people management or team leadership experience
  • Hands-on experience managing/administering modern identity providers, device management, and other enterprise tools like Slack, Teams, Zoom, etc.
  • Subject matter expert in one or more modern enterprise tools
  • Experience with video conferencing solutions and support
  • Extensive technical knowledge of recent desktop operating systems (I.e. macOS, Windows)
  • Strong understanding of support ticket management, tracking metrics and trends, and defining/enforcing best practices
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to interact with key stakeholders in partner teams and company leadership
  • Strong attention to detail and a passion for correctness
  • Passion for continuous improvement, scalability, and the user experience

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.
