  • Work closely with Manufacturing, Engineering, Quality, Maintenance, and Operations to resolve IT-related issues.
  • Manage user onboarding/offboarding, hardware provisioning, software installation, and IT asset inventory.
  • Monitor and maintain endpoint security, patching, and device compliance in accordance with company standards.
  • Manage support tickets, document resolutions, and escalate complex issues to appropriate IT teams or vendors.
  • Participate in hardware refreshes, system upgrades, plant projects, and technology deployments.
  • Identify recurring issues and recommend improvements to increase IT reliability and user experience.
  • Follow all IT security, plant safety, and operational procedures.
  • Re-image existing employee PCs, as needed, without the loss of data.
  • Create, maintain, and delete Windows Active Directory accounts in accordance with company standards.
