The ideal candidate enjoys working with data, troubleshooting application issues, understanding complex processes, and finding ways to improve efficiency. Experienced application support specialists will provide training and support.

We value a work environment that promotes work-life balance, supportive coworkers, and the satisfaction of serving our community. We also offer a hybrid remote work environment and see this position as the beginning of a long-term, rewarding career with Larimer County.

What we're looking for:
