Oversee the computer lifecycle, including commissioning, decommissioning, and maintaining accurate inventory of hardware resources.
Administer onboarding and offboarding, ensuring system access and compliance with security protocols in coordination with HR.
Collaborate with vendors and internal teams to resolve escalated issues and manage IT integrations with partners and subsidiaries.
Support IT projects and proof of concepts, contributing technical expertise and assisting with systems integration during mergers and acquisitions.

Excellent communication, organization, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams and vendors.
Ability to work autonomously when required, while also excelling in team-based environments.

YOUR COMPENSATION
Base Salary Range: $75,000-$95,000 USD annually

The range above depends on job-related skills, experience, training, education, location and business needs. The range is based on Minnesota-derived compensation for this role. It is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role. Only in rare and exceptional circumstances, when a candidate has the experience, skills, and expertise to exceed those required for the position, would we consider paying at the top of the range for this role.
