About Unlock

Unlock’s mission is to unleash the power of home equity to enrich people’s lives. We do this through a financial solution called a Home Equity Agreement or HEA, an entirely new way to access and utilize home equity. We’re not a lender, so there are no interest charges or monthly payments and homeowners with poor credit or high levels of debt can still qualify. We're beyond passionate about helping our customers build greater financial resiliency. We are mission driven, consumer centric and our products are designed for the way homeowners want to live their lives today - with flexibility and control.

About the role

The Systems Engineer at Unlock Technologies will serve as the primary technical support resource for a core internal business application, handling triage, troubleshooting, and Python & SQL-based analysis to resolve end-user issues with minimal escalation to backend engineering. Approximately 75% of this role will focus on application support responsibilities. During periods of low support volume, this position will assist with broader IT operational needs including endpoint management, user lifecycle tasks, automation, and documentation. 

What you’ll do

  • Own day-to-day support for the internal Django/Python-based business application, including triaging user requests, diagnosing issues, reviewing logs and SQL queries, and minimizing escalations to engineering. Maintain documentation and collaborate with developers as needed to improve support workflows.
  • Write and interpret Python & SQL to support reporting, troubleshooting, and validation tasks within core systems.
  • Manage and support Microsoft 365 services, including Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and Entra ID (Azure AD).
  • Configure and support device compliance using Microsoft Intune. Perform imaging, software deployment, and support for both Windows and macOS environments.
  • Provide Tier II support to users in the Tempe office and remotely across the organization, ensuring smooth operations and timely resolution of service requests.
  • Use PowerShell and scripting tools to streamline IT tasks and improve support workflows.
  • Maintain detailed documentation for application support processes, IT systems, and internal tools to support knowledge sharing and operational efficiency.

What we’re looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in IT support, systems engineering, or application support roles
  • Proficiency in Python & SQL (query writing, data analysis, troubleshooting)
  • Familiarity with Django-based applications and Python
  • Strong experience with Microsoft 365, Entra ID (Azure AD), and Intune
  • Proven ability to support both application-level and system-level issues with minimal escalation
  • Experience with ITSM tools and ticketing systems
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills to effectively partner with leaders across multiple functions
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment and support cross-functional teams 
     
    Preferred Qualifications 
    • Experience supporting internal business applications and workflows 
    • Familiarity with logging/monitoring tools 
    • Exposure to REST APIs, integrations, or backend support workflows 

What we offer

  • Opportunity to work in a rapidly growing fintech
  • Dynamic and inclusive work environment that fosters innovation and growth
  • Competitive compensation package
  • Ongoing professional development and career advancement opportunities
  • Flexible work arrangements and a strong emphasis on work-life balance

Target base compensation is $145,000 annually. Actual base salary varies based on factors, including but not limited to, relevant skill, prior experience, education, base salary of internal peers, demonstrated performance, and geographic location. Additionally, Unlock’s Total Rewards package is highly competitive, designed to support your success at work, at home, and at play – such as 401K matching, health benefits, employee stock options and paid time off.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
