## Description

We're hiring a Systems Engineer to keep our IT environment running smoothly while contributing to the software that runs our business. This is a hybrid role: roughly 70% systems and end-user support, 30% development work on our internal tools, websites, and sales applications. You'll be the person who unblocks users in the morning, ships a feature in the afternoon, and improves how we deploy and monitor things along the way.

You'll inherit an existing PHP and JavaScript codebase with active feature work in progress, and you'll have real input on new projects from the design stage through deployment. If you like variety, dislike being boxed into one lane, and want your work to be visible - this role fits.

What You'll Do

Systems & Support

· Serve as the primary point of contact for end-user IT issues (Tier 1 and Tier 2)

· Administer Microsoft 365, Entra ID (Azure AD), and endpoint management

· Install, configure, and maintain hardware, software, and network components

· Document and track tickets accurately; close the loop with users

· Perform root-cause analysis on outages and partner with the team on prevention

· Maintain and deploy company websites and internal applications

Development

· Maintain and extend an existing PHP/JavaScript codebase (web apps, intranet, sales tools)

· Build new features from spec through deployment

· Contribute technical input during design and feasibility discussions

· Write clean, reviewable code; use Git/GitHub day-to-day

· Help maintain development and staging environments
