·      Apply technical expertise, and knowledge base resources to identify, research, and resolve complex technical issues efficiently and accurately.

·      Document, track, and monitor all incidents and service requests within the IT service management (ITSM) platform to ensure timely resolution, accurate reporting, and knowledge base maintenance.

·      Coordinate with team leads, IT personnel, and third-party vendors to address issues related to existing IT systems, cloud platforms, and implementations of new technologies, including migrations and integrations.

·      Triage, prioritize, and route service desk tickets using the Service Desk system, ensuring proper categorization, escalation paths, and SLA compliance across all support tiers.

·      Serve as the primary owner of Tier 1 and Tier 2 (advanced) support incidents, including escalations from Tier 1; engage Tier 3 or vendors as needed for complex infrastructure or application issues.

·      Assist end users experiencing technical difficulties with a customer-first approach, ensuring all work is carried out in a timely manner, within defined SLAs, and with clear status communication throughout resolution.

·      Perform diagnostic testing and analysis using both built-in OS tools and third-party utilities to isolate hardware, software, and network issues; document and act on test results.

·      Conduct root cause analysis (RCA) on recurring or high-impact incidents; identify, implement, and validate both short-term workarounds and long-term permanent fixes.

·      Ensure all workarounds and permanent fixes are documented in the knowledge base and communicated to Tier 1 team members to reduce repeat escalations and improve first-call resolution rates.

·      Collaborate with IT infrastructure, Enterprise Applications, Cybersecurity, and development teams to reproduce issues in test environments, validate patches and fixes, and support change management processes.

·      Maintain clear, proactive, and timely communication with end users, stakeholders, and the service desk team throughout the lifecycle of all open support cases, including regular status updates for high-priority incidents.

·      Actively identify and contribute to ongoing process improvements, automation opportunities, and service desk efficiency initiatives.

·      Engage directly with technology vendors and managed service providers (MSPs) to escalate complex issues, manage warranty/RMA processes, and ensure hardware and software systems remain fully operational.

·      Manage IT asset inventory and equipment lifecycle, including procurement tracking, hardware refresh cycles, configuration, imaging, and disposal, using asset management tools to ensure accurate records and minimize downtime.

·      Administer, update, and troubleshoot unified communications systems, including VoIP/cloud telephony platforms, video conferencing tools (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom), and collaboration technology.

 

Other Responsibilities (Non-Essential): 

·      You will be asked to perform related duties or special projects as assigned. 

 

Skills you need to succeed: 

 

Demonstrated proficiency in: 

·      Excellent interpersonal skills;

·      Proven troubleshooting and problem-solving skills;

·      Proven ability to multitask effectively and handle the fluctuating workload;

·      Proficient at troubleshooting problems with common office equipment.

 

Ability to:

·      Communicate effectively with end users in non-technical terms;

·      Assist and/or coach junior-level team members with advanced technical issues;

·      Work responsibly with or without direct supervision;

·      Travel as needed.

 

Education and/or experience:

·      5+ years’ experience in service desk operations;

·      Thorough working knowledge of Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive), Windows 10/11, macOS, and common enterprise software applications.
