IT Security Systems Administrator

Our Story

TopDog Law is not your typical law firm. We're a nationally scaling personal injury firm built for impact and growth — owning the client experience end-to-end, from marketing and intake through litigation. We believe that world-class marketing, paired with exceptional legal talent and operations, creates better experiences and outcomes for clients and the business alike.

Over the past three years, we've grown 2–3x year over year, setting a new standard on the marketing side of the personal injury space and proving what's possible when strategy, speed, and execution align. Now we're applying that same discipline and innovation to firm operations, case management, and national scale — intentionally building the infrastructure, systems, and teams to grow without sacrificing quality, culture, or accountability.

We are a fully remote team that share trust, open communication, and a commitment to doing great work. If you love ownership, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and want to help build something exceptional, you'll feel right at home here.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Senior IT Security System Administrator to own both sides of a critical mandate: keeping our systems running reliably and keeping them secure. This is a hands-on individual contributor role reporting directly to the IT Director. You'll split your time roughly equally between systems administration Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, endpoint management, identity, and SaaS platforms) and security operations (policy enforcement, access control, compliance, threat monitoring, and incident response).

You'll be the person who implements, monitors, and enforces security controls across a rapidly growing distributed workforce. The ideal candidate is technically sharp, operationally disciplined, and comfortable owning both the "does it work" and "is it safe" questions simultaneously. This role is essential for maintaining the reliability, performance, and security of our systems.

What You Will Own

- Administer Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 environments, while facilitating the setup and full migration to Microsoft 365.

- Manage a mix of Windows and Mac endpoints using MDM tools for device enrollment, configuration, compliance, and patch management policies.

- Administer SSO, MFA, and directory integrations; maintain identity provider configuration and authentication policy.

- Administer and manage security toolsets (DLP, EDR, email security, and SIEM logs) to ensure effective threat detection and policy enforcement.

- Provide tier 2/3 support for firm-wide SaaS applications as necessary.

- Monitor, triage, and respond to security alerts across endpoint, email, identity, and cloud environments.

- Support compliance activities and internal audits; maintain evidence and documentation for security controls.

- Contribute to incident response: detection, containment, remediation, and post-incident review.

- Assist with vulnerability management, including patch cadence tracking and endpoint hygiene reporting.

- Identify gaps in security coverage or operational process and drive remediation.

- Stay current on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and best practices relevant to a remote-first professional services environment.

- Develop dashboards & reports for security metrics, compliance status, and operational health.

- Manage relationships with key vendors and service providers, ensuring service level agreements (SLAs) are met.

- Oversee security operations and ensure compliance with relevant industry standards and internal policies.

- Strategy and planning: Translate business needs into operational capability, capacity planning, DR/BCP design, cloud migration strategy, and lifecycle roadmaps.

- Minimum of 7 years experience in IT systems administration, security, operations, or a combined role.
