We’re looking for a technical generalist and problem solver who enjoys understanding how things work, figuring out why they don’t, and using whatever tools are available to solve the problem. On a given day, that might mean troubleshooting a workstation, investigating a SQL query, writing a script to automate a repetitive process, diagnosing a network or hardware issue, working with an API, setting up equipment, researching an unfamiliar system, or helping a staff member solve a technology problem.

We’re especially interested in people who have learned technology because they genuinely enjoy it, whether through professional work, personal projects, building computers, homelabs, programming, automation, school, or simply spending years figuring things out. The Person We’re Looking For More than any particular certification or technology, we’re looking for someone who thinks like a troubleshooter. When something unfamiliar breaks, your reaction should be: “I don’t know yet, but I can figure it out.” You should be willing to read documentation, inspect logs, test hypotheses, research unfamiliar technology, use AI effectively, ask good questions, and keep digging until you understand what’s happening.

You’ll also work directly with nontechnical employees, so patience, friendliness, and the ability to explain technical issues clearly are important. Why This Role Is Different This position offers an unusual amount of exposure for someone early in their technology career. You’ll work closely with the Director of Information Systems and gradually take ownership of systems, reporting, data workflows, automations, and technical projects as your knowledge grows.
