Some problems can't be fixed from a remote session. That is where you come in. cloudIT is a growing Technology Service Provider headquartered in Phoenix, delivering IT, cloud, and security services to clients across 10 states and 3 countries.

We are hiring an Onsite Systems Administrator in Boise to be the technician our clients see when something needs hands-on attention. Most of your day is spent at client offices: one hour you are bringing a network back online, the next you are replacing a failed server drive or walking a client through what you fixed. Between visits, you help our service desk with remote escalations.

  • Stage and test equipment before deployment, and handle vendor RMAs for failed hardware
  • Work remote escalations from the service desk between scheduled visits
  • Review client systems and recommend improvements to performance and security

Clients and Team

  • Explain what you found and fixed to clients in plain language, and keep them informed about progress, upcoming changes, and scheduled outages
  • Document your work clearly in ConnectWise and IT Glue
  • Mentor Tier 1 technicians and Field Specialists and bring them along on site visits
