JOIN YOUSICIAN
Yousician impacts and enriches the lives of millions of people by empowering them to play music they love, learn something new, and nourish their well-being. We merge music and tech to amplify the everyday. We reimagine the way people learn to play so that everyone can play.
And, you don’t need to be a musician to join Yousician!
We’re a band of passionate professionals who love what they do, are great at it, and move to the beat of the same drum. We’re for all players — from newbies to seasoned pros. If you are looking for a rewarding career opportunity that helps shape the future of music-tech, you’re in the right place!
WHY YOU SHOULD APPLY
At Yousician, IT is about empowering people to do their best work, friction-free. Our environment is highly SaaS-driven, so the role focuses more on organization, planning ahead, and ensuring our setup evolves smoothly with the company’s needs, rather than managing heavy infrastructure.
You’ll have the opportunity to lead and develop a small but mighty IT function, currently a team of two, and design the digital employee experience for a fast-growing, international team of music and tech enthusiasts.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
As our IT Manager / IT Specialist, you will:
- Lead, mentor, and develop the small but effective IT team.
- Manage and develop Yousician’s IT environment with a focus on digital employee experience and operational excellence.
- Oversee macOS device management and ensure smooth onboarding/offboarding processes using modern tools.
Keep our systems and tools well-organized, secure, and aligned with company needs. - Support employees by solving open-ended IT challenges and proactively improving workflows.
Collaborate with teams across the company to ensure IT solutions meet changing business demands. - Manage IT assets, vendor relationships, and SaaS tools.
- Plan ahead for new tools, automations, and integrations as the company grows.
WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED
Hard requirements:
- Proven experience managing macOS devices with modern tools (e.g. Kandji).
- 5+ years of overall IT field experience — the more varied, the better.
- Proven experience solving open-ended IT problems and designing practical solutions.
Helpful experience:
- Budgeting and vendor management.
- Existing connections to local vendors in Finland.
- Team management experience
- Finnish language skills (not required but occasionally useful).
- German language skills are a plus.
Experience with scripting and working with APIs.
Our tech environment includes:
- Google Workspace (also our IdP)
- Kandji (device management)
SentinelOne (EDR) - Meraki (LAN)
- Torii (SaaS management and automations)
- Snipe-IT (asset management)
- Zoom + Logitech meeting room hardware
- Twingate (remote access management)
You don’t need to have experience with all of the above, what counts is a curious mindset and the ability to pick things up fast.
WHAT WE OFFER
- A chance to join an international team, backed by top VCs and competing with the world’s best education applications.
- A meaningful, profound impact on the lives of millions of musicians and future musicians worldwide.
Collaboration with a passionate and friendly team of PMs, designers, developers, and data scientists. - A competitive compensation package (salary, perks) and an awesome office in the heart of Helsinki.
