We’re a team of technologists and legal experts collaborating closely to reimagine corporate legal services from the ground up. We build proprietary technology and human-in-the-loop workflows to radically enhance the lawyer–machine relationship. Our mission is to review complex documents faster than ever — with perfect quality.
Crosby was founded by Ryan (Penn, Stanford Law, ex-Cooley, former GC) and John (Penn M&T, ex-Ramp, ex-Google).
We believe:
A great legal system is the watermark of a great society.
Legal work is both an art and a science — and discovering the frontier between the two is a magnificent puzzle.
Selling work, not software, is the best way to unlock the productivity gains of GenAI in professional services.
In-person collaboration matters. We operate from our NYC office.
As Crosby’s first dedicated IT & Security Operations Lead, you’ll own the systems, processes, and day-to-day operations that keep our team productive, secure, and unblocked.
This is a hands-on, high-ownership role at a fast-growing Series A company. You’ll design and run Crosby’s IT function end-to-end — from onboarding new hires and managing hardware, to securing devices and identities, to building repeatable processes that scale with the company.
You’ll work closely with the founders, engineering, People Ops, and Finance to define how IT operates at Crosby. Your work will directly impact employee experience, security posture, and the company’s ability to scale efficiently.
Own employee IT from end to end: onboarding, offboarding, access management, and day-to-day support.
Design and operate our endpoint management strategy (laptops, security baselines, patching, encryption).
Manage identity and access systems (SSO, MFA, role-based access, admin separation).
Build and run a lightweight helpdesk system with clear intake, prioritization, and SLAs.
Procure, deploy, and manage hardware inventory and lifecycle (ordering, spares, repairs, replacements).
Support in-person office IT needs (Wi-Fi, conference rooms, AV, printers as needed).
Handle security operations basics: phishing response, lost devices, access incidents, vendor security reviews.
Establish clear documentation, runbooks, and self-service resources to reduce ad-hoc requests.
Partner with People Ops and Finance on tooling, procurement, and compliance initiatives (e.g., SOC 2).
Evaluate and manage vendors, MSPs, and external tools as needed.
