Director of Information Technology

The BayTech Group, Louisville, KY, United States


We’re seeking a hands‑on IT Infrastructure leader to drive the integration and standardization of multiple acquired environments into a unified, secure platform.

This is not a purely strategic role — we’re looking for someone who has personally led system integrations, worked within infrastructure environments, and enforced security/compliance standards.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

  • Adhering to SOC 2 Type II compliance requirements
  • Leading end‑to‑end IT integration of newly acquired entities (systems, networks, vendors)
  • Consolidating and standardizing infrastructure across multiple environments
  • Managing and holding multiple MSPs accountable for execution and delivery
  • Driving cloud and hybrid infrastructure strategy (AWS/Azure + on‑prem)
  • Enforcing security, compliance, and documentation standards across all systems

Required Experience (Must‑Have):

  • Direct experience leading IT integrations in acquisition‑driven or multi‑entity environments
  • Strong, hands‑on background in infrastructure, networking, and systems integration
  • Proven ability to manage and coordinate multiple MSPs and external vendors
  • Hands‑on experience with SOC 2 Type II compliance (required — not theoretical exposure)
  • Experience aligning environments to NIST or similar security frameworks
  • Ability to work both strategically and in the weeds — this role is not hands‑off

This Role is NOT a Fit If You:

  • Have only worked in a single, stable IT environment
  • Are primarily focused on helpdesk or end‑user support
  • Have not been directly involved in system or infrastructure integrations
  • Do not have hands‑on SOC 2 / security compliance experience
  • Prefer purely strategic leadership roles without execution

Why This Role:

  • Own IT integration across a rapidly growing organization
  • High visibility and direct impact on business operations
  • Opportunity to build and standardize infrastructure at scale
  • Autonomy to drive decisions in a fast‑moving environment
