This is a hands-on, client-facing role for someone who wants real ownership over how support is delivered - not just a ticket queue to clear. You’ll be the face of the company for many of our clients, so initiative, reliability, and a knack for clear communication matter as much as technical skill., * Serve as the primary point of contact for all client helpdesk inquiries and support requests

  • Support and troubleshoot Algo speaker/PA systems, primarily for school clients
  • Handle client billing and invoicing for support and project work
  • Prepare quotes for clients on new equipment, services, or projects
  • Identify and resolve recurring technical issues, bringing creative, practical fixes rather than just patching symptoms
  • Represent the company professionally in all client interactions - you’re often the only face a client sees

Requirements

Do you have experience in Ticketing system technical support?, * 1-3 years of hands-on IT support experience (helpdesk, MSP, or similar)

  • No degree required
  • No certifications required
  • Comfortable picking up new tools and platforms quickly (Syncro, UniFi, Amcrest, Algo)
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Self-starter who’s comfortable owning client relationships with minimal oversight, Someone who treats this job like it’s theirs to run - not just a checklist to get through. We’re a small, close-knit team, so the right person will have real visibility and impact from day one. If you’re looking for a role where your ideas actually shape how things get done, this is it.
