About Fleet

Fleet studies how environments produce intelligence. We believe intelligence is an emergent property of environmental pressures: the environment determines what capabilities develop, what behaviors survive, and what "good" looks like. We work with frontier labs on post-training across modalities, building benchmarks that expose where frontier models break, training recipes that close those gaps, and scalable oversight for long-horizon agents. Backed by Sequoia Capital, Menlo Ventures, BCV, and SV Angel.

About the Role

Fleet moves quickly because a small team has access to reliable systems. As Fleet's first dedicated IT Engineer, you will be responsible for the corporate systems behind that work: identity and access, business applications, employee devices, and office networks.

This is a hands-on, high-ownership role based in Fleet's San Francisco office with on-call responsibility for business-critical systems. You will make technical and vendor decisions, resolve difficult incidents, and build automation so recurring work scales without adding manual overhead.

What You'll Do

  • Manage access. Keep identity, permissions, and provisioning coherent across Fleet's systems.
  • Make employee transitions boring. Accounts, access, and devices should be ready when needed and removed cleanly when they are not.
  • Keep corporate systems reliable. Manage employee devices, office networks, and shared technology while resolving incidents and eliminating recurring failures.
  • Automate the function. Use agents, APIs, code, and workflows to turn repetitive work into controlled, observable, and recoverable systems.
  • Manage vendors and tooling. Handle licensing, utilization, escalations, and decisions to expand, replace, or retire tools.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience running corporate IT, enterprise systems, or a major technology domain end to end in a fast-growing startup.
  • Comfortable with APIs, scripting, workflow automation, and AI tools as part of how you work.
  • Hands-on experience with identity and access systems, productivity platforms, and business-critical applications.
  • Judgment about when a change is worth making, what it will affect, and how to introduce it without unnecessary disruption.
  • Experience maintaining employee endpoints, device management, and office networks.
  • Security experience is a plus, especially across identity, endpoints, device trust, or incident response.

Compensation

Salary range: $200,000–$240,000 USD annually, plus meaningful equity.
