We are AI Native

We are building an AI native company where AI is an integral part of how we build and operate. AI tool usage during interviews varies by role. You may be asked to demonstrate proficiency with AI tools, discuss how you leverage AI, or complete interview exercises without AI assistance. Your Recruiter will provide clear guidance as you move through the interview process.

Undisclosed use of AI not previously discussed with or approved by your Recruiter may impact your candidacy.

About The Team

The IT team enables every Life360 employee to do their best work — owning helpdesk, hardware, in-office technology (yes, we still have offices!), and the business applications that run the company. Within IT, the IT Engineering team handles the deeper engineering work across identity, endpoint security, SaaS governance, and automation — pairing deep specialists with generalist engineers who cover the full surface, and treating internal IT as a product, not a ticket queue.

About the Job

Reporting to the IT Engineering Manager, the Senior IT Systems Engineer II is the generalist on the IT Engineering team — the engineer who can move fluently across SaaS platforms, identity, endpoints, and integrations, and the cornerstone our automation and infrastructure specialists rely on. You’ll be the primary technical escalation point for the Help Desk, the subject matter expert on Okta and the broader SaaS estate, and a strategic voice in tool evaluation, governance, and AI-native IT operations.

This is the role for a senior IC who genuinely enjoys the breadth — someone who can debug a SAML claim in the morning, scope an MDM policy at lunch, and design a new SaaS integration in the afternoon. Deep Okta experience is essential; Okta Certified Administrator or higher is strongly preferred.

The US-based salary range for this position is $91,000 to $169,000. We take into consideration an individual’s background and experience in determining final salary - therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the senior technical escalation point for the Help Desk on identity, SaaS, MDM, and authentication issues that exceed Tier 2 — owning resolution and feeding fixes back into platform configuration.
• Act as the subject matter expert on Okta and our broader identity stack (user directories, SCIM provisioning, SSO integrations, group rules, authentication).
