Job description
The Senior Technical User Support Analyst delivers advanced technical support to Medtronic's executive employees, resolving complex IT issues through in-depth troubleshooting and root cause analysis. This role prioritizes incidents based on business impact, acts with urgency to restore services, and collaborates with internal and external technical teams when specialized support is required.

The analyst also serves as a subject matter expert for IT and audio-visual support for executive and offsite meetings, coordinating with vendors and internal teams to ensure seamless technology experiences.
We believe that when people from different cultures, genders, and points of view come together, innovation is the result -and everyone wins.

Our unwavering commitment to inclusion, diversity, and equity (ID&E) means zero barriers to opportunity within Medtronic and a culture where all employees belong, are respected, and feel valued for who they are and the life experiences they contribute. We know equity starts beyond our workplace, and we must play a role in addressing systemic inequities in our communications if we hope to have long-term sustainable impact.
