About the role
Drug Hunter is a B2B subscription scientific intelligence platform for biotech and pharmaceutical R&D scientists. We serve many of the world's leading biotech and pharmaceutical organizations, including Dow 30 and S&P 500 companies.
What You'll Do
- Serve as the first point of contact for help desk requests, troubleshooting hardware and software issues for a fully remote team
- Manage and maintain our Mac and Windows fleet, using JAMF for Macs and Windows management tooling for everything from setup and configuration to updates and security compliance
- Handle user provisioning end to end: onboarding new hires with the right accounts, devices, and access, and offboarding departures cleanly and securely
- Administer Google Workspace, managing accounts, groups, and access as part of day-to-day provisioning and support
- Manage access to software and applications, granting, adjusting, and revoking permissions across the tools the company relies on
- Take direction on day-to-day work while also running smaller projects independently, with light oversight rather than constant hand-holding
- Grow into owning systems outright as you build confidence in them, taking on more responsibility over time
- Document common issues and fixes, helping build out an internal knowledge base that makes everyone's life easier
Requirements
- A quick learner. Above all, we want someone who picks things up fast and is genuinely excited to learn. We care more about drive and aptitude than a long résumé
- A real interest in IT support and the patience to help people solve problems, no matter their technical comfort level
- The ability to take direction well and also work through projects on your own with only light supervision
- Some familiarity with macOS and Windows environments; hands-on exposure to device management (JAMF or another MDP) is a plus but not required
- A basic grasp of user account and access management, or the eagerness to learn it quickly
- Experience with or comfort learning Google Workspace administration
- Strong communication skills, especially the ability to explain technical things clearly to non-technical colleagues
- Organized, dependable, and comfortable working independently in a remote setting
- Relevant coursework, a certification like CompTIA A+, a degree, or equivalent hands-on experience is welcome, but attitude and ability to learn matter most

- Competitive salary, variable compensation, and equity
- Broad range of medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees and their dependents, including generous coverage for a platinum PPO healthcare plan
