issues, standard software support).

• Manage on-site support, device configuration, hardware issue resolution, and inventory

management.

• Escalate immediately to the Director of Information Security & GRC — before attempting

independent remediation — any incident involving suspected unauthorized access,

malware/ransomware spreading beyond a single endpoint, data exfiltration or loss of client or

telephony, and monitoring tools.

resolution.

Network Management

stability, with scalability in mind, proactively identifying and resolving risks before they impact

operations.

• Infrastructure Engineers configure firewall and network security devices/applications and ensure

required standards are in place across endpoints, per standards set by the Security and GRC vertical,

which is accountable for verifying enforcement.

• Manage ISP vendor relationships and account administration to support network reliability and

uptime.

• Assist in the design and implementation of new networks and infrastructure improvements.
• Partner with the Sr. Director of IT & Client Solutions on any client-driven infrastructure

requirements requiring technical scoping, design, or fulfillment.

• Maintain accurate, audit-ready inventory records for hardware, software licenses, and peripherals

across the organization.

• Establish and enforce asset tagging, tracking, and reconciliation processes to minimize loss and

shrinkage.

• Partner with Procurement and Finance on asset budgeting, depreciation tracking, and replacement

planning.

• Define and monitor refresh cycles for endpoints and infrastructure equipment to balance cost and

performance.

• Have the Tech Experience team and Infrastructure Engineers execute secure wiping of retired assets

prior to disposal or repurposing, per secure-erasure standards set by the Security and GRC vertical,

which verifies that identified devices have been wiped before disposal proceeds.

Secondary Tasks

• Creation of Monthly and Quarterly IT department and IT Services reports.
• Assist Incident Managers in handling and communicating incidents.
• Perform service and process compliance audits.
• Conduct and participate in IT weekly management meetings.
• High involvement in asset management, problem management, and process documentation.
