About the Job

As a Help Desk Support Specialist, you’ll be the first point of contact for investigating, troubleshooting, and resolving technical issues, managing user access, and setting up hardware and software. You’ll support employee onboarding, maintain support documentation, and help ensure smooth day-to-day operations across a primarily remote workforce.

This role requires strong communication skills, attention to detail, ownership of issues through resolution, and the ability to support non-technical users in a fast-paced environment. Success in this role depends on the ability to independently gather information, follow a structured troubleshooting process, and provide clear documentation and communication throughout the support lifecycle. The ideal candidate is comfortable working through ambiguity, identifying root causes, and performing thorough investigation before escalating issues when appropriate.
