About ALSO.

We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian. We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new (not to mention, innovative and delightful) vertically integrated, small EVs designed to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.

ALSO is looking for a Director of Enterprise Technology– our first internal Enterprise Technology hire – to take ownership of our rapidly evolving technology environment following a successful enterprise spinout.

• Champion a culture of continuous improvement, automation, and operational excellence
  within the Enterprise Technology function.

What You Will Bring

• Extensive Enterprise Technology leadership experience (10+ years), with a strong track
  record of building and scaling modern IT functions in fast-paced, high-growth
  environments.

• A strategic mindset with the ability to align technology initiatives with business goals and anticipate future needs as the organization scales.

• Proven experience in managing technology partnerships and external service providers
  to ensure quality, performance, and alignment with internal priorities.

• A deep understanding of modern IT operations, including cloud infrastructure, identity
  and access management, endpoint management, security, compliance, and network
  architecture to support growing connectivity needs.

• Hands-on experience with core SaaS tools used in modern workplaces—including MDM
  platforms (for Windows and macOS), Slack, the Atlassian suite (Jira, Confluence),
  Google Workspace, and SharePoint.

• Experience managing or implementing service desk operations and improving internal IT
  support models at scale.

• Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to build trust and
  communicate effectively across technical and non-technical teams.

• A passion for process improvement and automation, with a focus on efficiency,
  scalability, and user experience.

• Experience developing and implementing technology governance frameworks, business
  continuity plans, and IT service delivery standards.

• A hands-on, self-starter mentality with the ability to operate independently, identify
  opportunities, and drive initiatives forward with minimal direction.
