About this role
At Perplexity, we're changing how the world finds answers. In 2026, we launched Computer, the defining product for the new era of agentic AI. Millions of people now use Perplexity to transform knowledge into action, and behind all of that sits the technology infrastructure that keeps a fast-moving company running.
We're looking for an IT Systems Administrator who wants to do more than keep the lights on. This is an early, high-impact role where you'll build the systems and automations that let our team move even faster. You won't just respond to tickets. You'll figure out how to make them disappear. We give our IT team the same AI tools we build for everyone else, and we expect you to use them.
This role is based in-person at our San Francisco office.
