• Troubleshoot, configure, and manage hardware including servers, workstations, scanners, printers, and peripherals.
• Install and support Windows-based systems (both desktop and server), including OS, drivers, and Cott application environments.
• Perform basic system admin functions: running SQL Server 2019 queries, updating database tables, and assisting with patching and backup validation.
• Lead remote or onsite installation planning and support engagements for new customer hardware.
• Work cross-functionally with internal teams and customers to ensure technology environments are healthy, stable, and aligned with application needs.
• Track and escalate complex issues as needed, always ensuring responsive and professional communication.

Requirements

• Associate degree in IT or related field, or equivalent experience supporting Windows-based hardware/software environments.
• Strong hands-on experience troubleshooting desktop and peripheral hardware.
• Familiarity with Windows 10/11 and Windows Server environments (2012 through 2019).
• Working knowledge of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), including basic queries and table updates.
• Comfortable navigating Active Directory, DNS, and basic Windows network configurations.
• Experience with IIS, backup/restore utilities, or virtualization (Hyper-V, VMware, Citrix) is a plus.
• Excellent problem-solving and customer communication skills.
• Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Willingness to occasionally travel for onsite customer installations or escalated support needs.
