Job description
We donât believe in âpresenteeismâ or clock-punching. We believe in results. We are looking for a Tier I Technical Consultant-in-training-someone who is bored by traditional, rigid help desk roles and wants the autonomy to actually solve problems.
This is an entry-level role, but we arenât looking for âentry-levelâ thinkers. We want a teammate who views every technical glitch as a puzzle to solve and every client interaction as an opportunity to build trust. Because we prefer to promote from within, we are hiring our future consultants today.
Our âNo-Micromanagementâ Philosophy
- Ownership over Oversight: We give you the tools and the trust. You provide the drive and the solutions.
- Mistakes are Tuition: We want you to be unafraid to try new things. If you make a mistake while trying to help a client, weâll back you up and learn from it together.
- The âGet It Doneâ Attitude: Whether itâs a complex software bug or a day spent on a ladder running structured cabling, you take pride in crossing the finish line.
What Youâll Be Doing
- Be the Face of Tech: Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, turning their technical frustrations into âproblem solvedâ smiles via phone, remote sessions, and on-site visits.
- Own the Problem: Diagnose and resolve hardware, software, and network issues. You donât just âpass the buckâ-you own the ticket until itâs fixed or youâve learned the solution from our Tier II team.
- Build the Foundation: Perform structured cabling and hardware deployments with a crew. Youâll get your hands dirty building the physical infrastructure that keeps our clients running.
- Consult & Improve: Donât just follow procedures-help us break and fix them. We expect you to identify inefficiencies and suggest better ways to serve our clients.
- Document for the Future: Create clear, concise guides for your teammates so that when you solve a problem once, it stays solved for everyone.
Requirements
- You are a Self-Starter: You donât wait for a manager to tell you what to do next. If the ticket queue is empty, youâre looking for a project or learning a new skill.
- You are Resilient: You can handle a âcool-temperedâ approach during high-pressure situations and keep the client calm.
- You are a Team Player: Youâre willing to go the extra mile-whether thatâs staying late to finish a cabling job or helping a teammate with a difficult ticket.
- You are Tech-Savvy & Curious: You have a solid grasp of Windows (MacOS a plus but not required,) networking basics, and mobile devices, but your real âsuperpowerâ is your ability to Google and learn what you donât know., * Physicality: Youâll be active. You must be comfortable standing, climbing ladders, and lifting up to 50 lbs for structured cabling and hardware installs.
- Experience: 2 years in IT support. We value aptitude and attitude over years of sitting in a chair.
- Communication: You can explain complex âtech speakâ to a non-technical user without sounding like a robot.
- Education: An Associate degree, technical coursework, or relevant certifications (CompTIA A+, Net+, MS-900) are a plus, but a proven âcan-doâ mindset is required.
- Cabling experience a plus, and/or a willingness to learn.
