Do you focus on doing the right thing? If so, join the Abode Energy Management (Abode) team, where you won’t ever want to leave.  We’re fun, kind, passionate, progressive, and innovative. We are an expanding energy efficiency program implementor, focusing on weatherization, electrification, and heat pump adoption.

Summary/Objective
We are looking for a service-focused entry-level IT Support Associate to support routine IT tickets and various IT projects, some on-site at our Concord office. The ideal candidate likes to investigate to get to the bottom of technical problems and puzzles, is detail-oriented, and can operate with a sense of urgency.  For the right candidate, this is a unique opportunity to learn adaptive problem- solving skills critical to success in nimble, smaller organizations, with support from an experienced team typically found only in larger but more siloed organizations.

Responsibilities
Reporting to Abode’s IT and Systems Administrator and working closely with other Abode technical staff, this position will include some or all the following responsibilities:
  • Set up and maintain end-user devices (laptops, tablets, and mobile devices). Procure hardware according to standard system specifications.
  • Manage user accounts, permissions, and access controls across Microsoft 365 tenant, Salesforce, Calendly, and other tools.
  • Install, configure, and update operating systems, email systems, drivers, and software applications.
  • Provide technical support, assistance, and troubleshooting to end users, both remotely and in person.
  • Assist in inventory management and asset tracking of computer hardware and software.
  • Maintain security measures across the organization.
  • Document IT procedures for reference and improvement.
  • Over time, support maintenance of integrations between our main business tools, including Salesforce, Jotform, and Calendly.

Qualifications
All candidates are required to bring the following skills and experience:
  • Demonstrated technical skills in a professional or personal capacity
  • Experience with Microsoft 365 functionality and administrative tools
  • Solid written and verbal communication skills to gather information from employees on issues, create helpful records of steps taken, provide easy to follow directions to employees, and explain complex technical concepts in simple language
  • Analytical and problem-solving capabilities to troubleshoot and diagnose issues
  • Ability to multitask and manage time on a daily and weekly basis to support multiple requests at a time while providing updates and fixes within a promised time frame
  • Observational skills to recognize warning signs that indicate potential problems
  • Strong customer-orientation: ability to interact professionally and patiently with employees and coworkers
  • Familiarity with Google Workspace, Android mobile devices, and iOS mobile devices

Any or all the following skills and experience are highly desirable:
  • Knowledge of system security and frameworks, such as NIST or CIS
  • Experience with Salesforce, Zapier, and VOIPs like Vonage
  • Associate’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science or a related discipline
  • Relevant professional certifications (e.g. Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA))

Compensation and Benefits
This is a full-time, non-exempt hourly position with starting pay of $23 to $27 per hour, depending on relevant skills and experience. This hybrid position will support a blend of working directly in the Concord office and remotely from their home office.  Abode offers its employees a competitive benefits package, including Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and Disability Insurance, a matching 401k, and fully paid Parental Leave. Employees have a flexible working schedule and generous paid time off (~37 paid days off, or ~15% of all weekdays).
