At Strawbridge Studios, we don't just take school pictures-we power the systems behind millions of student records, images, and memories.

We are seeking a dynamic IT & Development Manager to lead both our Infrastructure (IT) and Software Development teams-someone who can balance common sense business practices, employee development and company growth while building systems that serve schools, families, and our internal teams with excellence in technology, data integrity and customer experience. Our IT department should function as a strategic partner in the business, not just support.

Data & Security Excellence

Ensure the security and integrity of sensitive student and school data

Technology & Development Oversight

Partner with operations to manage all core systems including data intake, production workflows, and customer-facing platforms
Oversee software development lifecycle from initial planning through to release
Evaluate and implement new tools, platforms, and integrations that improve efficiency and scalability

Operational Impact

Ensure uptime, reliability, and performance of systems during critical production windows
Lead cross-functional collaboration with Operations, Customer Support, and Sales
Optimize processes for data handling, automation, and reporting

What Success Looks Like

Systems are secure, stable, and scalable during peak seasons
Data flows are accurate, efficient, and trusted by school partners
The development team consistently delivers innovative, business-driven solutions

Who You Are

A problem solver who is able to work interdepartmentally with other company leaders
A passionate, proven leader with experience managing and developing IT and/or software development teams
Comfortable working in data-heavy, compliance-driven environments
Strong understanding of:
- Infrastructure, networking, and system security
