With over 30 years in business, we own and operate some of the fastest-growing enterprise software companies globally.

We are looking for a Junior Support Engineer to join our team based at our Riverside Data Centre, California – this DC hosts infrastructure and equipment supporting multiple companies across our portfolio.

Responsibilities:
- Install, rack and cable servers, switches and other network equipment
- Assist with basic installation and decommissioning of Data Centre hardware
- Provide ‘Smart Hands’ support for our wider IT teams and portfolio companies
- Carry out tasks such as power cycling equipment, checking connections, reseating cables and replacing basic components
- Supporting our existing Data Centre Engineer when additional resource is needed
- Troubleshoot basic network connectivity issues, including checking cabling, ports, connections and device status
- Escalate more complex infrastructure or networking issues to the appropriate engineer or technical team
- Assist with laptop and end-user device management
- Receive returned equipment and ensure assets are correctly recorded and stored; wipe and securely prepare laptops and other devices for re-use or disposal; configure and prepare devices to be shipped to new or existing users
- Assist with IT asset and inventory management, including tracking equipment entering and leaving the Data Centre
- Follow documented processes and maintain accurate records of work completed, and assist with other hands-on IT and Data Centre tasks as required
