Business Automation & IT Manager (80-100%)

Join our tipee team!
-----------------------------

Located in the heart of Lausanne, we are an SME of about fifty passionate employees. We develop tipee, a time management application and HR portal that has been simplifying our clients' lives for more than 10 years.

Operating in a participatory and agile mode, our company is organized into circles where everyone is autonomous, has a say, and has opportunities for evolution within the company. And all this, with a positive impact for our clients, our colleagues, the community, and the environment.

To strengthen our organization, we are looking for a Business Automation & IT Manager. This cross-functional position places you at the heart of tipee's operations: you help teams save time through automation and AI and you make our work environment reliable, efficient, and pleasant.

At tipee, we are convinced that AI can sustainably streamline work and create concrete gains. We want to integrate it widely where it makes sense, with the discernment, security, and simplicity necessary for uses that are built to last.

Your daily role
----------------------

Reporting to the CTO, you work in close partnership with our DPO and the tipee teams:

• You work closely with all teams (product, customer success, sales and marketing, admin) to identify opportunities to simplify and accelerate their work.
• You are on the lookout for new opportunities offered by AI to evolve our ways of working, automate what could not be automated until now, and open new possibilities.
• You also know how to recognize when AI is not the right answer, preferring more conventional and robust solutions: workflows (n8n), scripts, API integration, etc.
• You are the reference person for internal IT: preparation and deployment of workstations, fleet management, pragmatic problem solving, and continuous improvement of the working experience.
• You manage a heterogeneous and flexible work environment, with Linux, macOS, and Windows workstations. You prioritize simple standards, adapted to uses and risks, rather than standardization for principle's sake.
• You implement the IT actions of our ISO 27001 approach: monitoring of measures, access management, team awareness, basic cybersecurity training, and monitoring of corrective actions. You aim for truly effective security, and not dogmatic controls that incite being bypassed.

What we are looking for
------------------

• Practical experience in automation or tool integration, combined with systemic thinking: you know how to start from a concrete need to design and implement an adapted solution.
• A strong interest in professional uses of AI, with the desire to transform them into concrete gains and the necessary discernment to distinguish useful experimentation from trends.
• Ease in Linux, macOS, and Windows environments, as well as a taste for solving varied problems through logic, observation, and experimentation.
• Clear communication, initiative, and a taste for collaborating with both technical and non-technical people, while bringing your own ideas.
• Proficiency in French for daily exchanges and in English for technical resources.

You do not need to be a specialist in every subject, nor to have the perfect background on paper. Above all, we are looking for a reliable, curious, and versatile person, with good technical reflexes, capable of understanding a need, imagining a solution, and implementing it.

Working at tipee
---------------------

• Flexibility: flexible hours, hybrid work (up to 50% remote), activity rate adaptable to the evolution of your personal life.
• Premises in Lausanne: 15 minutes walking from the station, 7 by bike or scooter.
• Training: an individual budget for conferences or training on topics that interest you.
• Participatory culture: mutual aid, dialogue, trust, taking of responsibilities.
• Commitments: B Corp and STI certified, committed to societal and environmental aspects.
• Mobility: up to CHF 300.- per year for your sustainable transport costs (CFF subscription).
• Conditions: attractive LPP benefits with a sustainable fund, benefits around parental leave, at least 5 weeks of vacation, and more.
• Company life: regular events and convivial moments that pace the year.
