- Create and maintain clear documentation—knowledge bases, runbooks, process workflows, and asset records.
- Partner closely with the IT Director in a hands-on, “in the trenches” environment; learn, grow, and advance into senior roles through real responsibility and mentorship.

- Proficiency administering SaaS collaboration and productivity tools—including Atlassian (Jira, JSM, Confluence), Slack, password managers, and cloud-identity platforms.
- Practical understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals (CIA triad) and eagerness to contribute to ISO 27001 compliance efforts.
- Self-motivated, highly organized, and comfortable working 99% remotely in a fast-paced, agile environment.
