Sentinel Blue is looking for an IT Support Technician to join our Operations team. This role is for an entry-level/junior IT support person or administrator with a desire to learn and build a technical skillset. Our ideal person for this role is a natural communicator, empathetic and technically-inclined. You don't need to be a technical wizard, but you do need to be patient and willing to help.

The IT Support Technician starts the day with a standup call/check-in with the Operations team. Then they will continue any open support tickets and respond to new tickets. From there, they will work on project tasks such as automating an application installation, generating endpoint health reports, and writing documentation. The Technician will work closely with the Operations team to address problems and improve infrastructure. The Technician will also have opportunity to work with other Operations team members to learn new technologies and skills.
Responsibilities:
- Receive, triage, and analyze IT service requests, incidents, and other tasks, and work to resolve issues through remote support.
- Perform systems administration work in Office 365, Active Directory and other line of business applications.
- Communicate with clients through email, chat, and phone to keep them aware of active requests and incidents.

This is a great place if you want to expose yourself to new and emerging technologies, want to be challenged, and want to build your skills.
