Ally and Your Career

*

Ally Financial only succeeds when its people do - and that’s more than some cliché people put on job postings. We live this stuff! We see our people as, well, people - with interests, families, friends, dreams, and causes that are all important to them. Our focus is on the health and safety of our teammates as well as work-life balance and diversity and inclusion. From generous benefits to a variety of employee resource groups, we strive to build paths that encourage employees to stretch themselves professionally. We want to help you grow, develop, and learn new things. You’re constantly evolving, so shouldn’t your opportunities be, too?

The Opportunity

At Ally, you get a startup feel, but experience the benefits of a company that has worked out the kinks and is fulfilling its purpose. We are always evolving and see that as a good thing. From owning our work to seeing its impact in the real world, our team is relentless in finding new ways technology can help make experiences better and help people.

Ally is seeking a visionary and results-driven Infrastructure Operations Leader to oversee the day-to-day operations of our Hosting Infrastructure and lead the transition to our next-generation Private Cloud.

* Lead a team of domain experts across Unix, Storage, Virtualization, and Hardware operations.

* Collaborate cross-functionally with internal stakeholders, audit teams, and vendor partners to ensure seamless service delivery and regulatory compliance.

* Shift the team mindset from reactive support to proactive planning and problem prevention.

* Develop and execute strategic roadmaps for operational maturity and infrastructure modernization.
