About TurboPass
TurboPass is a cloud-based SaaS platform serving the automotive financing and dealer technology space. We aggregate and deliver consumer data to dealers and lenders across the country. Our team is ~40 people and growing.
We’re looking for a Microsoft Administrator to run the day-to-day of our Microsoft 365 environment and keep it healthy, secure, and well-managed. You’ll spend your time identifying security gaps, closing blind spots in logging and visibility, and finding smarter, more efficient ways to operate. This is a hands-on technical role for someone who likes to dig in, take initiative, and improve things as they go. This position reports to the Head of Security.
TurboPass is 100% cloud-native and identity-based — there is no on-premises infrastructure or traditional network to manage. The environment is built on a modern Microsoft 365 security and productivity stack, complemented by a Zero Trust access model.
