Job Description

On a regular basis you will:

Serve as the primary Tier 1 point of contact for end-user IT support, managing ticket intake, triage, and resolution through the Foqal ticketing system
Troubleshoot methodically — reproducing issues, consulting Guru documentation and prior tickets, and applying structured first-line diagnostics before escalating
Resolve software support requests including application troubleshooting, access issues, and basic configuration, plus provide Zoom Phone setup, configuration, and support
Escalate unresolved issues to Tier 2 IT Analysts with thorough documentation and context, following established escalation workflows
Manage end-to-end computer and accessory deployment for new hires and existing staff, coordinating with vendors and tracking fulfillment status
Stage and deploy standard new-hire software licenses per the New Hire Deployment Worksheet and Technical Deployment Matrix, escalating non-standard provisioning to Tier 2
Maintain and distribute role-specific onboarding training materials, videos, and guides tailored to new hire job titles and required applications
Coordinate hardware repair, e-cycling, and responsible disposal of end-of-life equipment, and process purchase requests and inventory tracking via the ticketing system
Create, update, and maintain IT knowledge base content, SOPs, and support workflows to reduce repeat tickets
Participate in team meetings and retrospectives, and provide peer coverage across the Helpdesk Specialist team to maintain operational resilience

You're gonna crush it if:

You have roughly 1+ years of help desk, IT support, or comparable customer-facing technical experience (or an equivalent mix of coursework, certification, and hands-on practice) — this is an entry-level role, so advanced systems administration, security investigation, or scripting experience is not required
You're proficient in troubleshooting macOS and Windows environments and comfortable with SaaS provisioning, remote support tools, screen-sharing platforms, and MDM basics
You have familiarity with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and Zoom (including Zoom Phone) administration and troubleshooting
You have strong written communication skills suited to an async-first, fully remote environment, and can explain technical concepts to non-technical staff in plain, reassuring language
You have sound judgment about what to resolve at the first line versus when to escalate, and you write clear, structured handoffs when you do
You're security-minded, with working knowledge of phishing tactics and social engineering patterns, and comfort following documented escalation procedures
You have an Associate's or Bachelor's degree, a relevant certification like CompTIA A+, or equivalent practical experience
You're a collaborative team player who thrives on peer coverage, knowledge sharing, and managing multiple open tickets at once
