Parallel
IT Manager
Salary
Job description
ABOUT US
Parallel is a web infrastructure company. Our products are used by leading businesses in sales, marketing, insurance, and coding to build best-in-class AI agents with flexible and powerful programmatic access to the web.
We've raised $230 million from Kleiner Perkins, Sequoia, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, First Round, and Terrain to build the web for AIs. We're currently valued at $2 billion and we're forming a world-class team of engineers, designers, marketers, sellers, researchers, and operational experts to achieve our mission.
Job: Own and operate IT at Parallel Web Systems. You'll be the single owner of our internal systems — managing our device fleet, securing endpoints and network, owning vendor relationships, and running smooth onboarding/offboarding. You'll also keep us SOC 2 compliant and audit-ready as we scale.
You: A strong IC who owns their domain completely. You don't need a team under you to get things done — you're hands-on, organized, and know how to keep a fast-moving company's infrastructure tight. You might come from an in-house IT role at a high-growth startup, an MSP background, or a systems/ops engineering path where you naturally drifted toward the internal-facing work.
LIFE AT PARALLEL
Our team works fully in-person, between our Palo Alto HQ and San Francisco office. We’re a flat, talent-dense organization dedicated to solving technical and creative problems.
We seek like-minded individuals who share our passion for applying science, creativity, and consistency to big and complex problems with equally big outcomes. These are our values:
- Own customer impact: It’s on us to ensure real-world outcomes for our customers.
- Obsess over craft: Perfect every detail because quality compounds.
- Accelerate change: Ship fast, adapt faster, and move frontier ideas into production.
- Create win-wins: Creatively turn trade-offs into upside.
- Make high-conviction bets: Try and fail. But succeed an unfair amount.
