• Monitor and configure network settings, access points, and switches using the Ubiquiti UniFi Admin Center
• Assist with basic infrastructure troubleshooting (DHCP, DNS, VLANs)
• Monitor endpoint security alerts using EDR/XDR platforms
• Act as the first line of defense by identifying, isolating, and reporting potential malware or security anomalies on user devices
• Maintain, troubleshoot, and manage physical surveillance systems (Hikvision, SCW) and facility access control (fob controllers)
• Diagnose and repair physical hardware issues, including replacing HDDs, SSDs, and RAM in laptops, desktops, and small servers
• Maintain accurate IT asset inventories (hardware assets, software seats) and document standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the internal knowledge base
• Assist in the evolution of our software through bug reports and feature requests

Skills & Qualifications:

• 2–4 years of experience in a Helpdesk, Desktop Support, or Tier 2 Technical Support role.
• Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft 365 Admin Center, Exchange, and Active Directory / Entra ID
• Hands-on experience navigating and managing local networks through the UniFi Controller or similar network management platforms
• Basic understanding of EDR/XDR concepts (e.g., Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne) and modern endpoint security best practices
• Familiarity with configuring and troubleshooting IP cameras (Hikvision, SCW) and configuring keycard/fob access systems
• Confident in opening up devices to swap components (RAM, storage upgrades) and running hardware diagnostics
• Strong problem-solving abilities, excellent user communication skills, and a methodical approach to documenting technical processes
• CompTIA A+, Network+, or Security+ certifications are an asset
• Experience utilizing MDM (Mobile Device Management) platforms like Microsoft Intune is an asset
• Experience with ticketing systems (e.g., Jira Service Desk, Zendesk, Freshservice) is an asset
