the posting

As we enter our next phase of growth and scale the Chaparral aircraft from flight testing into full-rate production, Elroy Air needs one person to own IT and security from the ground up. This is a true builder role: you'll be a team of one for the foreseeable future, operating as both the strategist setting direction and the hands-on operator keeping systems running day to day. You'll design and defend our network against real threats, and you'll build and maintain the CMMC compliance framework that lets us operate in export-controlled, government-adjacent environments, essentially standing up the function solo before it grows.

You'll work directly with engineering, security, legal, and leadership, with full ownership of decisions that in a larger company would be split across a team.

The Head of IT will build, lead, secure, scale, and create high-performing IT systems across the company. This role is responsible for architecting and operating our internal IT infrastructure, including corporate IT, identity and access management (physical and digital), endpoint systems, networking, and compliance frameworks required for export-controlled environments.

You will shape and build the systems that allow the company to mature and operate efficiently as we scale.
