The Role: Administrator, Configuration Management

You will help keep Switch's servers and endpoints secure, consistent, and reliable. You will manage configuration, patching, and compliance across Windows, Linux, macOS, and managed devices.

• Troubleshoot complex issues across configuration, patching, and device management tools.
• Document procedures, access controls, configurations, and operating standards.
• Prioritize assigned requests, meet due dates, and communicate status clearly.

• Participate in an on-call rotation for escalated incidents.

What We're Looking For

• You work independently on complex technical issues and know when to escalate.
• You use sound judgment when balancing security, system stability, and service continuity.
• You communicate technical information clearly and include the details others need to make decisions.
• You follow through on commitments and keep affected teams informed.
• You identify practical solutions instead of stopping at the problem.
• You share knowledge and support teammates when your experience can help.
