- Document actions in ticketing systems to effectively communicate information to both internal resources and external customers.
- Respond in a timely manner (with published SLA) to incidents and support requests.
- Perform basic troubleshooting to diagnose common Network problems using fundamental TCP/IP network skills.
- Assist engineering staff with lab systems configuration.
- Update open ticket status for engineers and other technicians within the ticketing system.
What we're looking for:
- A minimum of Associates Degree (A.A.) or equivalent from a two-year college or technical school in Information Technology, Information Security/Assurance, Network Administration, Engineering, or related area of study.
- Related experience and/or training in a technology environment or equivalent combination of education and experience.
- One or more of the following certifications is beneficial:
- Palo Alto Networks – PCNSA, PCNSE

- Juniper Networks – JNCIA-Junos, JNCIS-ENT, JNCIS-SEC
- Fundamental knowledge and minimal exposure to TCP/IP networking.
- Entry-level desktop/networking experience, application software experience, with exposure to Microsoft and UNIX/Linux-based operating systems.
- Previous IT help desk experience preferred.
- A passion for information, network, and data security.
- A solid understanding of information security and networking.
- Shift flexibility, including the ability to provide on-call support when needed.
- Demonstrated experience and success in a customer-focused satisfaction environment.
- Ability to work greater than 40 hours per week as needed.
