Key Responsibilities

- Manage campus device lifecycles, inventory, and loaner pools using Jamf Pro and Google Admin Console to ensure Day-1 readiness for school openings, assessment windows, and campus events.
- Execute frontline hardware break/fix and basic network edge troubleshooting (switch/Wi-Fi checks, port tracing, cabling hygiene, AP monitoring) in collaboration with central Tech Ops teams.
- Facilitate tech onboarding and training for new staff while creating knowledge base articles and quick-reference guides to reduce repeat incidents and promote user self-service.
Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience in Help Desk, Desktop Support, or K–12/enterprise tech support (internships included).
- Proficiency with macOS, iOS/iPadOS, ChromeOS, Google Workspace, Jamf Pro, and Google Admin Console for endpoint management.
- Working knowledge of basic networking concepts (DHCP/DNS, Wi-Fi troubleshooting, port tracing, basic VLANs) and classroom A/V setups.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education, technical certifications (e.g., CompTIA A+, Network+, Jamf 200+), and hands-on experience.
Competencies
