We're looking for an IT Specialist to own the Android tablet environment and provide hands-on technical support for a fast-moving technology company. When a team member's device or system goes down, this role is the first line of defense. Speed, accountability, and clear communication are non-negotiable.

You will handle day-to-day IT support, manage the company's Android device fleet, and work cross-functionally with IT, engineering, and operations to keep systems running reliably at scale. If you bring a no-task-too-small ownership mentality, respond fast when it matters, and take pride in keeping people productive, this role is a strong fit.
Why You'll Want to Join

- You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)

-
Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy

- Observance of Holidays per company guidelines

-
100% remote setup so you can work wherever you're most productive

- This role requires availability on Eastern Standard Time with a rotational weekend schedule

- Direct ownership over IT support and device operations with real impact on team productivity

- Close collaboration with IT leadership, engineering, and operations from day one

What You'll Work On
General IT Support

- Serve as the primary IT support resource for internal staff and field teams

- Handle help desk requests including account access, software troubleshooting, connectivity issues, and hardware support

- Triage and resolve IT tickets promptly, escalating to engineering when issues require deeper technical investigation

- Maintain clear documentation of recurring issues and resolutions to reduce repeat requests

- Onboard new team members from an IT perspective including account setup, device provisioning, and access management

Android Device Management and Provisioning

- Manage and maintain the Android tablet fleet across the full lifecycle from acquisition through deployment and retirement

- Configure and enroll Android devices into device management platforms before deployment

- Enable security settings, device policies, and functionality updates across the fleet

- Track device inventory and lifecycle status and ensure every device is properly configured before reaching a team member

- Establish and manage a structured release process for device configuration updates

Device Support and Troubleshooting

- Troubleshoot and resolve device issues quickly with a target resolution time under 30 minutes for critical issues

- Document troubleshooting procedures and processes clearly enough for others to follow

- Support the transition of Tier 1 support responsibilities to other team members as the function scales

Systems Improvement and Documentation

- Identify opportunities to improve Android device reliability, performance, and usability across the fleet

- Support rollout of new capabilities and updates with minimal disruption to the team

- Maintain and improve runbooks for triaging and troubleshooting as the company grows

- Keep documentation current, organized, and accessible so the support process scales without knowledge bottlenecks

What You Bring

- Hands-on experience managing Android devices in an enterprise or large-scale deployment environment

- Solid general IT support background including help desk, troubleshooting, and user-facing support

- Strong troubleshooting skills across Android devices, systems, configurations, and connectivity

- Comfort navigating production databases using SQL and running scripts via CLI to investigate issues

- Ability to translate complex technical issues clearly for non-technical audiences

- Familiarity with modern support and productivity tooling such as Slack, Linear, HelpScout, or Notion

- Strong written and verbal communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences

- No-task-too-small ownership mentality with fast issue resolution and strong follow-through

- Highly organized and responsive with the ability to manage multiple open task
