The proprietary systems involve production and inventory software controls, using multiple devices on multiple operating systems and platforms.

Most support communication occurs via phone and email making strong communication skills a definite prerequisite. Technicians must be detail oriented with the ability to communicate well with others both technical (ex. Programmers) and less technical people (ex. customers, managers, or users). The CFS HelpDesk is 24x7, averages over 200 calls per month, and supports over 100 sites. During times of low ticket volume, the HelpDesk is also responsible for quality control through testing software updates, fixes, and/or full development releases. Technicians must possess time management skills and be goal oriented in order to meet testing deadlines. This is not a remote position.
