Office Tech Guru: You’re a pro at handling Google Admin—managing accounts, settings, and enforcing security like it’s a walk in the park. You keep Slack and Atlassian Suite running smoothly, ensuring every user has exactly what they need. And when it comes to managing hardware inventories? Let’s just say your attention to detail would make Marie Kondo jealous.
If that sounds like you AND you love a fast-paced workday where you get to support an amazing team on a mission to change lives, then keep reading!
AlgaeCal is on the hunt for a IT Systems Administrator who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and keep our tech systems running smoothly.
Small print here ⇒ We need someone with experience in IT management and a passion for problem-solving. So if you don’t love tech like Steve Jobs loved turtlenecks, you might want to stop here.
Still here? Great…
This job will give you ALL the feels:
At AlgaeCal, we’re driven by a single idea. To end the fear of bone loss. In the United States, an estimated 54 million people have low bone density.
The good news? AlgaeCal has the world’s only clinically-backed natural solution to this problem. We give hope to everyone worried about bone loss. If that excites you, you’ll find no better place to continue your career than at AlgaeCal.
Here’s what you’ll be up to in this busy role:
- Google Admin: You’ll take charge of all account settings and creation, and make sure 2-Factor Authentication is in place to keep our company secure.
- Slack: You’ll set up new accounts, audit user and channel permissions, and create handy Slackbot automations to keep our team connected and communication flowing smoothly.
- Atlassian Suite: You’ll be creating and managing boards, setting up Jira automations, and keeping an eye on Confluence permissions to make sure our workflows are as efficient as possible.
- Compliance Audits: You’ll handle Tugboat Logic tasks and ensure we stay on top of security compliance across the board.
- Hardware and Software Inventories: You’ll keep track of our tech equipment, coordinate inventory renewals and resales, and troubleshoot any hardware issues that come up around the office.
This job might be for you if you’ve got…
- A resume that wows us: We’ll need to see proven experience managing Google Admin, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.
- 1-2 years of experience with compliance frameworks: PCI, SOC-2, HIPAA—if you’re already familiar with these, you’re speaking our language.
- An encyclopedic knowledge of computers, routers and A/V equipment. If you have to Google “how to connect a VPN to a server” then this isn’t the role for you!
- Top-notch troubleshooting skills: You’ve tackled every glitch out there. In previous roles, you were the go-to problem solver, fixing issues in record time and keeping operations running smoothly.
- Familiarity with Salesforce or Atlassian Suite: You don’t need to be an expert, but having some hands-on experience with Salesforce or Jira/Confluence will definitely put you ahead of the game. If you’re already a pro, even better!
Now, time to be honest: is this really you? If you’re nodding your head and feeling that flutter of excitement, then we can’t wait to meet you.
Other Qualities You’ll Need
At AlgaeCal we’re going to insist that you have these 3 qualities:
- You’re humble--you put the team and others’ needs ahead of your own
- You’re hungry to learn more
- You’re people smart--in the sense that you’re a great teammate
The truth is, if you don’t have these qualities you won’t last long at AlgaeCal. So if you’re missing one of them, be honest. Save yourself a lot of headaches and skip to a job posting that is a better fit for you.

What We Do
AlgaeCal has pioneered the multi-nutrient approach to bone health, has supported its effectiveness with clinical studies, and guarantees stronger bones as measured by DEXA, making us the leader in natural bone health.
We are firm believers in the power of nature and the veracity of good science. AlgaeCal Inc. is proud to be the first company to popularize a plant as a calcium source in a world of limestone calcium supplements.
We have learned this full spectrum of plant minerals outperforms traditional calcium through independent clinical trials. As pioneers introducing vitamin K2, significant levels of D3, and strontium, we have forged a path for others to follow.
More recently, AlgaeCal has developed the world’s best bone supporting anti-inflammatory product, Triple Power Omega 3 Fish Oil. Inflammation is a primary cause of bone loss so it needs to be addressed head-on with the 3 leading anti-inflammatory nutrients.
But perhaps what sets AlgaeCal apart from the crowd most is guaranteeing your result. No doctor or supplement company we know of has the confidence in their approach to bone loss to do this.
We’re a different kind of company.
Let us serve you
