This is a mostly remote position, but you may occasionally need to go on-site when remote resolution isn't possible or when a project needs an extra pair of hands. On-site work may sometimes include light hands-on tasks like running data lines, setting up or moving equipment, or using ladders and basic tools. You should be comfortable lifting up to 50 pounds and okay with the occasional bit of dust or physical work in more technical spaces. The schedule is Monday through Friday, with flexible daytime hours that make it easier to fit work into your routine while still supporting the team during core business times. Occasionally, if we are very busy or there's an emergency, you may need to stay a little longer or help out after hours, but this happens only when needed. What This Role Looks Like This position combines both Tier 1 and Tier 2 responsibilities. Some days you'll handle quick fixes like password resets and account setups. Other days, you'll dive deeper into network issues, hardware troubleshooting, or software problems that require more investigation. You'll support multiple clients and environments, so every day will bring something new to learn and solve. What you'll do: * Serve as the first or second point of contact for users needing IT support. * Respond to and resolve tickets covering hardware, software, and network issues for Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. * Troubleshoot operating systems, applications, VPNs, firewalls, and connectivity problems. * Manage common Tier 1 tasks while also handling Tier 2 escalations and more advanced troubleshooting issues. * Support technologies such as Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Azure/Entra ID, remote access tools, and networking infrastructure. * Use remote management tools (RMM, remote desktop) and ticketing systems such as ServiceNow, ConnectWise, BMC Remedy, or Jira. * Document troubleshooting steps and resolutions clearly in the ticketing system. * Prioritize and manage tickets according to service level agreements (SLAs) and client urgency. * Communicate clearly and professionally with users, even in high-pressure situations. * Collaborate with teammates and escalate issues when needed, while also being comfortable working independently and owning issues through resolution. * Stay current with emerging technologies and IT support best practices. ## Related Videos - [What makes Cybersecurity different for critical infrastructure?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/571-what-makes-cybersecurity-different-for-critical-infrastructure) - [JavaScript?
