Triage – Tier 1 Computer Technician
About the Role
Do you love solving technical puzzles, helping users get back on track, and staying hands-on with a variety of systems and environments? We’re looking for a Tier 1 Triage Technician to join our energetic and growing MSP team.
In this role, you’ll work closely with clients and troubleshoot everything from Microsoft 365 issues to network problems. Most of your work will be remote from our main office, but you’ll also have the chance to roll up your sleeves on-site for more complex fixes or installations.
This is a dynamic, client-facing role where no two days are quite the same—perfect for someone who thrives on variety, problem-solving, and making a meaningful impact for clients.
What You’ll Do
Provide remote support to clients using RMM platforms and ticketing systems.
Resolve issues across Windows and Mac desktops, servers, Microsoft 365, VPNs, printers, and basic network setups.
Visit client sites when needed for hardware installs, escalated issues, or network troubleshooting.
Explain solutions clearly and patiently to users—no tech jargon walls here!
Monitor alerts, system events, and service queues to stay ahead of issues and meet SLAs.
Document every step of your work in our PSA/ticketing system with clear, detailed notes.
Collaborate with Tier 1 and Tier 3 teams to drive resolution and share knowledge.
Help maintain up-to-date records for client systems, configurations, and access credentials (within policy).
Assist with user onboarding, offboarding, and account changes across client environments.
Participate in team huddles, trainings, and knowledge-sharing sessions.
Participate in a weekly on-call rotation (starting after 90 days).
What You Bring
2+ years of technical support or help desk experience, ideally in an MSP or multi-client setting.
Strong knowledge of Windows 10/11, MacOS, Microsoft 365, Active Directory, DNS/DHCP, and remote access tools.
Familiarity with ticketing systems (like ConnectWise, Autotask) and RMM tools (like Automate, NinjaOne, Kaseya, N-able).
Strong troubleshooting abilities across desktops, networks, and cloud services.
Excellent written and verbal communication—you’re as good with people as you are with machines.
Ability to juggle priorities and manage time effectively in a busy, ticket-driven environment.
Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation for occasional on-site visits.
Comfortable lifting and moving computer equipment when needed.
Bonus Points
CompTIA A+, Network+, or Microsoft certifications (MCP, M365 Fundamentals, etc.).
Experience with firewalls (FortiNet, Meraki, SonicWall, Ubiquiti, WatchGuard) or networking basics.
Exposure to virtualization platforms (Hyper-V, VMware) and backup systems.
Familiarity with mobile device management (MDM) tools like Intune.
