• Ability to work independently without supervision and as part of the team, as well as with other teams.
• Create and maintain detailed technical documentation.
• Assist with the day-to-day operations of all business-critical systems within the Corporate Office, other office locations and retail locations by monitoring system performance, configuration, maintenance, and repair.
• Ensure that records of system downtime and hardware inventory are properly maintained; apply revisions to host system firmware and software.
• Work with vendors to assist support activities related to hosting systems (SAP, MES, Salesforce, etc.).
• Develop new custom scripts and testing procedures to ensure operational reliability and IT efficiency.
• Perform systems and software troubleshooting as required.
• Engage with IT Cybersecurity to implement system-level security measures to protect data, software, and hardware.
• Stay current with technological developments in systems administration technology and cybersecurity.
• Prepare reports or correspondence concerning application, system and project statuses, and policies/procedures.
