This role is for a seasoned IT professional that loves to solve problems that help their coworkers be faster and more efficient at their jobs, who knows the landscape of existing tools available and when to use them, and who isn’t afraid to dive into a bit of code when the existing tools don’t match our needs.

• Project Management: You can take a solution from an idea to a working tool. Often solutions involve cross-team collaboration without a clear task list.
• Get Things Done: You have great time-management skills. You get really excited about how to organize a workflow, and have built strong personal tools for tracking your own work and breaking big projects down into bite-size chunks.
• People focused: You like helping people. You enjoy teaching, learning and the collaborative exchange involved in sharing knowledge. People feel good when you’re helping them.

What you’ll do:

• Manage Alerts and Data collection for IT Systems in our monitoring system.
• Manage automation of Active Directory and G Suite.
• Deploy and Manage Windows and CentOS systems on Vmware ESXI
• Manage automation of deployment for both Windows and Mac computers.

• Document remediation steps for common infrastructure and service outages.
• Work with the Help Desk team to solve advanced tickets and projects.

• 6-years of education or relevant work experience / certifications. For example:
• 4-year degree in Information Technology (or related), plus 2 years of experience, or:

It would also be nice to have:

What you’ll get in return:

• A budget for continuing education and personal development
• (If in NY) An office with great amenities, including an espresso bar, and free lunch every day prepared by our in-house chefs
• Employees will never be poked with a sharp stick

If you want to work remotely…. We’ll help you set up a great home office, with an ergonomic chair, standing desk, and any other equipment you need to do your job.

If you want to work in our office… You’ll get your own private office in our headquarters in New York City, and enjoy additional benefits like free lunch every day prepared by our own in-house chefs, transportation reimbursement, and all the espresso you can drink.
