  • Escalate unresolved issues to Level 2 or vendor support as needed, with proper documentation.
  • Maintain clear records of tickets, incidents, and resolutions.

System Administration

  • Register and manage devices in Microsoft Entra / Intune for compliance and conditional access.
  • Monitor device health, patch updates, and Defender for Endpoint alerts.
  • Support configuration and auditing of Azure AD Join and BitLocker policies.
  • Run regular security and compliance checks aligned with WISP and IRS data protection requirements.

Operational Support

  • Maintain and update onboarding documentation and IT SOPs.
  • Support user license management and access provisioning across tools.
  • Assist with IT inventory, equipment deployment, and workstation imaging.
  • Provide basic end-user training on company systems and cybersecurity best practices.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Associate degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related field required.
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred (or equivalent professional experience in IT support).
  • 1–3 years of hands-on experience in IT support, helpdesk, or system administration.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Intune, and Microsoft 365 Admin Center.
  • Familiarity with Windows 10/11, and virtual desktop environments.
  • Understanding of SSO, MFA, and conditional access policies.
  • Basic networking skills (IP configuration, DNS, VPN).
  • Excellent communication and troubleshooting abilities.
  • Strong attention to detail and documentation discipline.
  • Customer service–oriented and able to multitask in a fast-paced environment.

Skills and Traits That Will Make You Stand Out:

  • Certifications such as CompTIA A+, Microsoft 365 Certified: Modern Desktop Administrator, or Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900).
  • Experience supporting Genesys Cloud, RingCentral, or similar telephony platforms.
  • Familiarity with Google Workspace Admin Console and cross-domain SSO integration.
  • Self-motivated with a strong desire to learn and grow.
  • Customer-oriented with excellent problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to handle multiple tasks and prioritize effectively.
