Job description

Nashoba Learning Group (NLG) is a mission-driven nonprofit organization supporting children, adolescents, and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder and related needs. Our programs span Day School and Adult Services, and we work in a highly collaborative, compassionate, and interdisciplinary environment.

Technology plays a critical role in how we support learners, staff, and families—from classroom instruction to training, communication, and daily operations. We value systems that are reliable, accessible, and user-friendly, and we believe strong technology support helps create calmer, more effective learning environments.

We’re seeking a Technology Support Specialist who is approachable, patient, and solutions-oriented—someone who enjoys helping people, solving problems, and being present where technology is actually used. If you’re looking for a hands‑on IT role with purpose, variety, and the opportunity to make a real impact each day, this may be a great fit.

About the Technology Support Specialist Role

Supporting a dynamic multi‑platform environment of Windows endpoints, Chromebooks, iPads, and Android tablets, the Specialist will gain hands‑on operational ownership of the organization's device ecosystem. Using Google Workspace administration, Jamf, Hexnode MDM, and automated imaging workflows, they will streamline deployments across classrooms and offices while traveling between buildings as needed to support day‑to‑day learning and operations.

This role is an ideal next step for a school‑based technology professional looking to step into broader responsibilities and direct system ownership. As an integral part of a lean, collaborative IT team, this position enjoys high visibility across the organization, varied project work, and the chance to meaningfully shape both classroom technology and school‑wide operational systems.
