About the role
As an IT Support Specialist, you will help keep Verda’s people productive by making sure their day-to-day technology works reliably and securely. You will be the first point of contact for internal IT issues, owning requests from first report through to resolution and knowing when to escalate.
This is a hands-on role with broad scope. You will support our employees across our corporate IT domain including devices, identity and access, collaboration tools, office technology, and onboarding. As Verda grows, you will also help improve the processes, documentation, and tooling that make IT support scalable.

Provide timely, high-quality IT support to Verda employees across the globe in the areas of hardware, software, accounts, and access
Set up, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot laptops, mobile devices, peripherals, meeting-room equipment, and office IT
Act as the on-site IT presence for our office, including new-office and workplace technology needs as the US team grows
Facilitate and support employee onboarding, offboarding, and role changes, including device provisioning and access requests
Support security in identity and access management, ensuring the right people have the right access to systems and tools
Troubleshoot common issues across operating systems, networks, collaboration tools, VPNs, printers, and SaaS applications
Maintain accurate asset inventory, device records, and support documentation
Escalate complex issues to the right teams, while retaining ownership of clear communication and follow-up

Support the implementation of IT security practices across devices, accounts, and employee workflows
Your key competencies
We're looking for someone who combines strong technical fundamentals with a service-minded, structured approach. You are comfortable solving problems independently, but you know when to ask for help and escalate.
Experience in IT support, service desk, workplace technology, or a similar hands-on IT role.

Hands-on experience with laptops, operating systems (macOS/Windows/Linux).
Experience with identity and access management, including user accounts, groups, permissions, and multi-factor authentication.
Familiarity with common SaaS and collaboration tools, such as Google Workspace, Slack, and video-conferencing tools.
Sound networking fundamentals for troubleshooting connectivity, Wi-Fi, VPN, DNS, and access issues.
A methodical approach to troubleshooting: you gather information, test systematically, document what you find, and communicate clearly.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, in English. Additional languages are a plus but not required.
High ownership, attention to detail, and an understanding of when to stop and escalate rather than improvising.
Comfortable working on-site and supporting office-based employees directly.
