About the Role:

EnTech is hiring an IT Support Specialist based in New York’s Capital Region to support a public‑sector client in Albany while contributing to our wider managed‑services support operation. The first phase of this role is hands‑on: helping migrate a client agency to a new Microsoft 365 tenant and retiring their on‑premises server infrastructure. Once that work completes, the role shifts toward remote support across EnTech’s client base, with continued on‑site coverage in Albany as needed.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Migration and Decommissioning Phase

• Re-join and re-enrol end‑user workstations to a new Microsoft Entra ID tenant; validate profiles, applications, printing and drive access afterwards
• Provide on‑site support during cutover windows, including scheduled evenings and weekends
• Inventory on‑premises servers, network equipment, printers and line‑of‑business applications; track each dependency to its disposition
• Physically decommission retired equipment: decabling, secure data destruction, asset disposal records
• Walk users through changes at their desk and absorb the first‑line questions that follow a cutover

Ongoing Client Support

• Serve as the on‑call on‑site presence for the Albany client, responding within agreed timeframes for issues that cannot be resolved remotely
• Administer Microsoft 365: user lifecycle, licensing, Exchange Online, SharePoint and Teams, MFA and conditional access
• Maintain endpoint security agents, patching compliance and device inventory
• Keep documentation and asset records current

Support Queue

• Work tickets across EnTech’s client base remotely, to published response and resolution targets
• Handle user onboarding and offboarding across our identity and SaaS platforms
• Escalate cleanly, with the diagnostic work already done

Required Qualifications:

• 3+ years in desktop support, help desk or IT operations
• Resident in the NY Capital Region — within roughly 30 minutes of Albany 12205 (Albany, Colonie, Latham, Guilderland, Schenectady, Troy, Clifton Park) — with reliable transportation and a valid driver’s licence
• Hands‑on Microsoft 365 and Entra ID (Azure AD) administration
• Windows 10/11 troubleshooting; Windows Server and Active Directory familiarity sufficient to decommission them safely
• Networking fundamentals: DNS, DHCP, VPN, basic switching and wireless
• Willing to work scheduled evenings and weekends during cutover windows, and to be on call
• Able to lift and move equipment up to 50 lbs and work in server rooms and under desks
• Comfortable being the only technical person in the room with a client

Preferred Qualifications:

• Direct tenant‑to‑tenant or on‑premises‑to‑cloud Microsoft 365 migration experience
• Public‑sector or government client experience
• MSP or managed‑services background
• Microsoft certifications (MD‑102, MS‑102, AZ‑104) or CompTIA A+/Network+
• Familiarity with endpoint management, identity platforms or ticketing systems

Estimated Annual Compensation:

$62,000-$75,000

Location:

Albany, NY (This is a full‑time position, hybrid, with regular on‑site presence at Albany offices)
