Our team needs to take initiative and proactively drive the execution of systems projects that we own. You enjoy taking on responsibility and owning decisions made. Organizational skills are helpful to ensure projects are well managed. Troubleshooting and Problem Resolution - you think laterally to dissect a problem into its component parts and diagnose root causes. You use different troubleshooting techniques to identify problems across different technologies. Growth Mindset – technology and investment requirements are constantly changing. You are a lifelong learner who continually invests in personal development. We welcome applications from candidates with a range of experience, including new graduates and experienced professionals. The annual base salary range is $180,000 – $350,000.
