Built by researchers from a global top 5 university theyre creating an open platform where the world accesses and evaluates leading AI models. Think of it as the definitive leaderboard for AI progress shaped by millions of users comparing models side by side.

With only 50 people they are backed by top-tier investors and scaling fast. They are looking for their first dedicated IT Engineer to act as the Right Hand to the Head of IT.

This is a rare chance to come in as a founder-level operator and build the enterprise stack from the ground up. Youre not just setting up Google Workspace; youre establishing the operational backbone for a future AI giant.

  • High-Stakes Support: Acting as the primary go-to for the entire company (from new hires to the C-Suite).

What Theyre Looking For:

  • 3-6 years of hands-on IT Engineering experience specifically building systems from scratch (0 to 1).
  • Experience as thefirst or second dedicated IT hire at a startup or high-growth SaaS company (experience in similar rigorous but sub-scale environments is a plus (e.g. PE Law Firms etc.)
  • Hands-on experience with macOS administration and troubleshooting.
  • Solid scripting experience using Python/PowerShell/Bash.
  • Excellent communication skills to interact with executive-level stakeholders.

Why This Role is Special:

This isnt an IT support job for a big corporation. This is a chance to write the rules for how a $1B AI startup operates.
