Systems Support Engineer / IT Administrator

About Maddox + You:

You will be responsible for supporting the technology experience of all Maddox employees and partners, the administration of network, surveillance, and building access control systems, and for handling both vendor management and administration of a wide-range of best-in-class industry software. The systems you will oversee touch every area of the organization.

Your work will enable your colleagues to perform their tasks with speed and efficiency, enabling them to purchase, recondition, and sell industrial transformers better than anyone else in the market. Your hands-on, proactive approach to maintenance, your speedy responses to support requests, and your ability to identify problems and solve them quickly will give Maddox a competitive edge. 

You will respond to internal user support requests with the posture of a first-class customer success agent and resolve issues in a timely manner. You will provide users with access to systems, investigate and troubleshoot software and hardware failures, coordinate with external support teams and vendors, solve both documented and novel problems that arise within our various 3rd party systems, and replace faulty equipment.

You will proactively ensure that all Maddox team members have the technological tools they need to be successful. You will set up new users and change access permissions as roles change. You will maintain and support a fleet of devices deployed across the business. You will ensure that networks are online and that facilities are secured by functional surveillance and access control systems.
