Role 

As an IT Helpdesk Engineer, you will serve as a primary technical resource on the Global ServiceDesk team, delivering end-user support and service excellence to Zscaler’s global workforce.

In this role, you will help maintain a secure, Zero Trust work environment while driving continuous operational efficiency and high CSAT.

What You’ll Do (Role Expectations)

  • Manage daily ServiceNow ticket queues to strictly adhere to MTTA/MTTR SLAs across incidents, providing Tier 1 support for workplace technology, VPN, and Gemini Enterprise Plus to drive high FCR and CSAT.
  • Execute end-to-end provisioning, modification, offboarding, and asset recovery across core systems (Okta, Active Directory, Google Workspace, ConductorOne) and enterprise tools (Slack, M365, 1Password, YubiKey).
  • Configure, stage, and deploy macOS and Windows laptops using Workspace ONE MDM alongside managing local hardware inventory, spares, and peripheral requests.
  • Verify device security compliance during support interactions, ensuring active status for ZCC, FileVault/BitLocker encryption, CrowdStrike agents, and OS updates.
  • Author SOPs and KB documentation, collaborate with L2 teams on root cause analysis for recurring issues, support ServiceNow workflow automations, and coordinate global shift handovers.

Who You Are (Success Profile)

  • Acts Like an Owner: Takes end-to-end accountability for assigned tickets, following up proactively with end-users until full resolution.
  • Customer-Centric Problem Solver: Combines technical rigor with empathy, delivering clear and transparent communication to maintain high CSAT.
  • Thrives in a Fast-Paced Environment: Adept at prioritizing urgent/VIP requests while managing active queue volume.
  • Security & Compliance Minded: Instinctively applies Least Privilege principles and verifies Zero Trust endpoint posture on every support interaction.
  • Continuous Learner: Eager to expand technical knowledge across cloud security, identity governance, and AI-driven support automation.

What We’re Looking For (Minimum Qualifications)

  • Foundational understanding of AI/ML technologies and experience leveraging, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your functional domain, alongside familiarity with leveraging AI tools (e.g., Gemini, ChatGPT, AI ticket assistants) to accelerate troubleshooting and documentation.
  • 3–6 years of experience in an IT Helpdesk, ServiceDesk, or Technical Support role within a global enterprise, featuring hands-on proficiency with ServiceNow (incident, service request, and queue management) or equivalent workflow tools.
  • Working knowledge of Okta (MFA, SSPR, policy checks), Active Directory, and governance platforms like ConductorOne.
  • Proficient in troubleshooting macOS and Windows 10/11, with exposure to Workspace ONE (AirWatch) or equivalent MDM solutions.
  • Experience supporting Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Calendar), Microsoft 365, Zoom, and password managers (1Password), supported by a solid understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VPNs, Wi-Fi troubleshooting, and local network diagnostics.

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Familiarity with PowerShell, Bash, or ServiceNow hands on experience.
  • Hands-on experience managing hardware security tokens (YubiKeys) and privileged account management.
