Giga is hiring a Head of Corporate IT to lead the technology services used by our global workforce. You will own workforce identity and access, employee devices, company-wide software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, collaboration tools, business networks at offices and operating sites, employee technology support, vendor management, technology spend, and audit readiness.
This is a hands-on role building the function. You will lead a lean distributed team with one IT role in China and one in India, while continuing to own important work directly. You will establish clear ownership, service standards, and practical controls so employees and engineers can move quickly. Success means reliable employee technology, faster support, stronger backup coverage, and audit-ready evidence.
Your scope is employee technology and business networks. Product software, industrial controls and operational technology (OT), physical security, and department-specific business applications stay with the teams that run them.
In your first 90 days, you will map current services, owners, access, devices, applications, vendors, spend, and material risks. You will set clear service ownership and decision rights, then close the highest-impact reliability and control gaps. During the first year, you will make employee technology more reliable, keep audit evidence ready, build backup ownership for critical services, and create a support model that works across regions.
This role is ideally based in the Houston area and will work out of our HQ office.
That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you’re the right person for this role, we’ll have a conversation about what works.
