  • Own hardware and software system access for employee onboarding and offboarding  (including Slack, Google groups, and general user access management)
  • Maintain conference room hardware (including projectors, computing equipment, audio/visual, telephony)
  • Tackle multiple tickets at the same time, addressing urgency as it may arise, and delegating both internally and externally with our vendors & 3rd party suppliers
  • Maintain and help support network and wireless infrastructure 
  • Survey and deploy new or existing network hardware, research relevant technology trends and provide recommendations for cost-effective solutions that provide the organization with a competitive advantage and increased productivity (including hosted platform capacity planning and budgeting)
  • Manage & maintain IT asset inventory and software licensing, and work with management to ensure that systems and software are accurately recorded, tracked, and retired to 100% of accountability standards

We’d love to hear from you if…

  • You have 6+ years of professional experience in IT with a strong technical knowledge of MacOS, Windows, and a wide variety of SaaS solutions (e.g. G-Suite, JAMF, OneLogin, Jumploud, Slack, Keeper, Atlassian, etc)
  • You’re able to be onsite in the NYC office in Lower Manhattan several days a week on a rotating schedule (with flexibility to work from home on the other days)
  • You're proficient with scripting languages (e.g. Bash, Powershell, etc)
  • You're a stellar verbal and written communicator with strong interpersonal skills--across all levels of an organization
  • You have exceptional attention to detail and skilled at wearing multiple hats and juggling many tickets
  • You're a self-starter who is comfortable taking on significant responsibility--no matter how administrative or ad-hoc
  • You have a sense of urgency and high level of proven productivity in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment

You can expect...

  • Company-paid health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan, FSA & commuter benefits
