THE ROLE
We are seeking a hands-on and detail-oriented professional to support and maintain our development lab environment. This role is responsible for ensuring that lab systems, hardware, and infrastructure are fully operational, organized, and accessible to support engineering and development teams. The ideal candidate will provide day-to-day technical support, troubleshoot hardware and system issues, and coordinate closely with IT and engineering teams to resolve problems efficiently.
THE PERSON
In this role, you will manage lab setup and organization, maintain accurate inventory and asset tracking, and support the full lifecycle of rack level server systems—from configuration and deployment to refresh and decommissioning. You will play a key role in enabling developer productivity by maintaining reliable lab operations, supporting remote access needs, and ensuring systems are properly configured, updated, and compliant with internal standards.
