Position Summary
HAYA is seeking a highly motivated IT professional to oversee our evolution. You'll design, deploy, and manage the next generation of our IT platforms, ensuring both data science and global operations needs are met.
We’re looking for a hands-on infrastructure engineer who will keep our scientific computing environment running smoothly on our distributed on-premises servers, our AWS- and Azure-based cloud infrastructure, and on Microsoft 365 and Google Cloud Platforms. You’ll partner closely with Data Science, Research, and corporate functions to deliver rock-solid uptime, bullet-proof data protection, and cost-efficient growth. The right person brings deep technical fluency, an eye for detail, and the judgment to focus on solutions that solve real problems without creating new ones.
What’s in it for me?
This is a rare opportunity to own and shape IT systems at a cutting-edge biotech from the ground up. You’ll have the independence to build infrastructure and processes you believe in, solutions that are lean, scalable, and meaningful to the teams they support. You’ll get to explore and implement new technologies, from cloud services to automation tools, and see the real-time impact of your decisions on scientific progress. This role gives you the runway to deepen your biotech domain knowledge, stretch your skills across server management, cloud platforms, and compliance, and become the go-to expert for critical infrastructure decisions at HAYA. If you’re looking for a role where you can make systems smarter, cleaner, and more resilient — and be valued for it — this is it.

These values are deeply embedded in our culture and will be part of the interview process as we assess both capabilities and mindset.
