About the job
We’re looking for a hands-on IT Manager to lead and operate the IT function at Vynca, a healthcare technology and services company focused on Palliative Care, Advance Care Planning (ACP), and Enhanced Care Management. In this role, you’ll manage a distributed team spanning multiple time zones—from Hawaii to the East Coast—while remaining technically engaged and ready to contribute directly when needed. This is a true player-coach position that sits at the intersection of team leadership and hands-on IT. You’ll set direction, develop and mentor your team, and oversee the security and compliance posture of our endpoint and access environment, while also being willing to jump in to provision a laptop, troubleshoot access issues, or assist with escalations alongside the team. As a healthcare organization that handles Protected Health Information (PHI) in a HIPAA-regulated environment, security, compliance, and the protection of sensitive patient data are core responsibilities woven into every aspect of this role.

Administer and maintain endpoint security tools, Mobile Device Management (MDM) platforms, and Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions to support a secure remote workforce.
Support audit readiness efforts, compliance initiatives, and evidence collection activities while maintaining thorough documentation of IT policies, procedures, and controls.
Leadership & Growth
Monitor and report on IT operational metrics, service levels, incidents, and trends, using data to drive continuous improvement initiatives.
Partner with Engineering, Security, Compliance, Human Resources, and business stakeholders to support organizational growth, security initiatives, and technology needs.
Identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency, strengthen security controls, enhance the employee experience, and scale IT processes across the organization.
Provide leadership, mentorship, and professional development opportunities for team members while fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and service excellence.
