Applications Support Associate

Make an impact

Bridge Property Management (affiliate of Bridge Investment Group) runs 170+ multifamily communities, and our onsite and corporate teams depend on a set of software platforms every day. As an Application Support Associate (Technology Operations Associate), you're their go-to for help.

• Set up, change, and remove Yardi user access in coordination with HR and property operations
• Escalate to software vendors when needed and follow through to resolution
• Test software updates before release and report whether they're ready
• Document your fixes in tickets and knowledge base articles, and flag repeat issues across properties
• Support new property onboarding, property sales, and data cleanup projects as needed
