- Support and maintain Slack, Zoom, and other applications used across the organization.
- Administer device management and endpoint-security tools.
- Maintain the company’s hardware inventory, asset tracking, and license management systems.
- Collaborate with the Security team to ensure adherence to security policies, including MFA, patching, and access-control requirements.
- Document troubleshooting procedures, IT workflows, and user guides in the internal IT & Security Wiki.
- Assist with network and office infrastructure support where applicable, including printers, routers, and A/V systems.
- Participate in IT projects and process-improvement initiatives as assigned.
Requirements

- Strong Tier 1 and Tier 2 support experience.
- Familiarity with identity and access management (IAM) tools, MDM systems, and ticketing platforms.
