The role

We're looking for a Mid IT Systems Engineer to take our identity and core platforms to the next level 🚀.

At Factorial, we are on a mission to change how small and medium-sized companies manage their teams. We are experiencing hypergrowth, scaling faster than ever, and managing a volume of billions in invoices. To support this massive expansion and the high volume of monthly onboardings, we are looking for a Mid IT Systems to join our Tech team in Barcelona (Hybrid). If you love automation, and want to build a scalable access infrastructure from scratch using AI and agile methodologies, this is your place!

What you'll do

As our Mid IT Systems engineer, you will own the administration of our Microsoft Entra ID and Azure cloud platform, not the server infrastructure itself, but the platform administration: users, groups, and organizational structure. You will act as the Product Owner of the Microsoft Entra ID area within Factorial, applying IAM knowledge to structure the organization by departments, groups, and roles, and defining the right permission model for each person.

👉 Fluency in English and Spanish is required for this role.

  • Entra ID Administration: Manage users, groups, and organizational structure within Microsoft Entra ID, acting as the Product Owner of this area.

  • IAM & Access Governance: Apply IAM knowledge to define what permissions each person needs and structure the organization by departments, groups, and roles.

  • Privileged Access Management: Configure and manage PIM (Privileged Identity Management) to grant temporary elevated privileges for accessing Azure resources.

  • Azure Foundry Deployment: Manage the deployment (when needed) of Azure Foundry, where BI and AI models are deployed, interviewing stakeholders to determine which AI model is needed, expected token consumption, and configuring the model and rules for each profile.

How you'll work

At Factorial, we believe the best products are built when people come together in person- o collaborate, challenge ideas, and move fast. That's why our Engineering Team follows an office-first, flexible approach.

We work on-site several days a week (80%), using that time to connect, align, and innovate as a team. However, we also understand the importance of focus and flexibility, so we support remote work when it makes sense (20%)-whether for deep work, personal needs, or just a change of scenery.

This balance helps us stay agile, creative, and closely connected-while giving everyone the space to do their best work.

Our Hiring Process

Our Tech Stack:

  • Identity & Cloud: Microsoft Entra ID, Azure (platform administration, not server infrastructure), PIM.

  • AI & BI Deployment: Azure Foundry.

  • Infrastructure as Code (good-to-have): Terraform.

What We're Looking For?

  • Database knowledge is not required for this role.

Our Values

  • We own it: We take responsibility for every project. We make decisions, not excuses.

  • We learn and teach: We're dedicated to learning something new every day and, above all, share it.

  • We partner: Every decision is a team decision. We trust each other.

  • We grow fast: We act fast. We think that the worst mistake is not learning from them.

In their own words

About the company & team

Factorial is the AI for Business that knows companies, connects how work happens across the business, and turns that context into action.

Founded in Barcelona in 2016, we now have +1,700 employees serving more than 16,000 companies across 112 countries.

Factorial started with a simple idea: companies were spending too much time managing processes and not enough time doing the work they were hired to do: their best work.

But as companies grow, work gets more disconnected. More people, more tools, more information, and more time spent connecting the dots. Generic AI can answer questions, but it doesn't know your company. Every time, you have to give it the context.

Factorial is different. Because it's inside the company, it already knows how it works, including its people, processes, policies, and data. So you can ask it to do real work, from screening candidates and managing expenses to answering questions and creating reports.

AI isn't the goal. Giving people back their time is.

When work changes, so do we.

We believe in diverse talent: we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and strongly encourage people of diverse experiences and identities to apply.

We believe in inclusion: we are committed to equal opportunities and actively promote workplace inclusion of people with disabilities. If you would like to learn more about our inclusive recruitment processes, you are welcome to indicate so optionally and we will share additional information with you.
