Level 1/2 Support Technician

No, 'have you tried turning it off and on again?' is not beneath you here — it's literally step one...

We're looking for a Level 1/2 Support Technician who combines a great attitude with a genuine passion for helping people. This is an entry-level role with constant client interaction, supporting small to mid-sized businesses and keeping their technology running smoothly.

They are a growing Managed Services Provider known for their responsive, people-first approach to IT support. Their clients count on them not just for technical fixes, but for a team that communicates clearly and treats every issue with care.

Attitude and customer service come first. Technical skills and tools can be taught — what matters most is genuinely enjoying helping people, staying calm under pressure, and bringing a strong work ethic. Don't have experience with the exact software listed below? Apply anyway! The one thing we really need is some prior experience in a support/helpdesk role.

Responsibilities

• Be the first point of contact for client issues via phone, email, and automated alerts
• Triage tickets: identify the problem, assess severity, and escalate when needed
• Keep clients updated throughout the resolution process — no one likes radio silence
• Configure and deploy new workstations; migrate data and applications
• Troubleshoot Windows PCs, servers, and common hardware issues
• Support Active Directory, DNS, file/folder security, print servers, and certificates
• Monitor and troubleshoot client LAN environments
• Assist with endpoint security (BitDefender, Blackpoint) and email management (OpenText/AppRiver)
• Document everything in IT Glue — seriously, everything

Requirements

• 6 months to 1.5 years of experience in a helpdesk or IT support role, ideally at an MSP or in a role supporting multiple clients simultaneously
• Native English speaker — this is a deal breaker. You'll be on the phone with clients daily and need to communicate clearly and professionally at all times
• Available to work Monday–Friday, 8 am–5 pm US Pacific Time
• Proven experience communicating with customers across multiple platforms (phone, email, ticketing systems)
• Hands-on experience with RMM, PSA/ticketing, and documentation platforms (we use NinjaOne, Autotask, and IT Glue)
• Windows OS experience in Workgroup and Domain environments; ability to set up PCs and migrate data
• Working knowledge of Office 365, Adobe, and common Windows apps
• Endpoint security and antivirus experience (BitDefender preferred)
• Familiarity with email management platforms like OpenText (AppRiver)
• Hardware troubleshooting at the subassembly level (hard drives, power supplies, GPUs, etc.)
• Windows Server: Active Directory, DNS, file/folder security, certificates, and print servers
• Virus removal, spam mitigation, and LAN troubleshooting
