Internal AI & Technology Adoption • Leverage Vega AI tooling to troubleshoot and resolve complex root cause issues. • Identify and surface opportunities for improvement and iteration in Altourage’s Vega AI platform. • Demonstrate a consistent and strong willingness to adopt new technologies as they are developed and rolled out. • Read, learn, and master all relevant best practice documentation for your position, including ticket management, AI technology and security standards, and time tracking. • Coordinate with the Technical Engineering, Security, and Technology teams to help configure, install, and maintain clients' front- and back-end infrastructure, including servers, networks, cloud systems, security systems, and workstations. • Audit and create client documentation, and analyze ticket trends and the corresponding technology assistance and consultations needed for your preferred clients. Our ideal Support Engineer has the following qualifications: • 3+ years of IT support experience, including escalation-level (Tier 2/Tier 3) troubleshooting, ideally within a managed services environment. • Bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field desired, or equivalent experience. • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft 365, Entra ID (Azure AD), Intune, Windows Server, and Active Directory. • Thorough understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, VPN, firewalls, and wireless). • Experience supporting Windows and macOS workstations, mobile devices, and common business applications. • Familiarity with cloud platforms, backup solutions, and endpoint security tools. • Experience with PSA, RMM, and documentation platforms used in managed services environments. • Demonstrated ability to own complex issues from diagnosis through resolution and to mentor junior team members. • Strong organizational and time management skills, with the ability to manage your own calendar and workload against SLA commitments. • Excellent customer service skills and strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to explain technical information to non-technical audiences. • Ability to travel to client sites for on-site appointments. • Nice to have: working knowledge of a scripting language (e.g., PowerShell) and experience supporting financial services, legal, or nonprofit clients. • Recommended certifications: CompTIA A+, Network+, or Security+, and Microsoft MD-102, MS-102, or AZ-104. This role is based in New York, NY and will operate on a hybrid basis (in office three days per week) with a base compensation range of $85,000–$95,000. We are seeking a candidate who goes beyond closing tickets. The ideal candidate will be comfortable owning escalated issues end-to-end, building lasting relationships with a core group of clients, and taking full responsibility for the accuracy of their documentation and technology stack. This includes the ability to receive an escalation, diagnose the root cause, design and implement the right fix, keep the client informed throughout, and leave behind documentation that makes the next request easier for the whole team. If you are a technically strong, client-focused professional who enjoys mentoring others and delivering exceptional service in a managed services environment, we would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
