Original job description

Description Field Support Specialist Join the Restech Fleet! We're on a mission to find the next Field Support Specialist – someone who is as passionate about tech as they are about helping clients across the galaxy. Whether you see yourself as a member of the Rebel Alliance or a Starfleet officer, this role is perfect for those who thrive in dynamic environments and enjoy the thrill of solving technical challenges.

Responsibilities:

  • Customer Engagement: Answer incoming support calls with the enthusiasm of a young Padawan eager to assist, creating support tickets and following them through to resolution.
  • Hardware Repair: Utilize your technical skills to repair and maintain various hardware, from malfunctioning droids to essential Starfleet equipment.
  • Onsite Visits: Travel to client sites to drop off equipment or provide hands-on support, embodying the spirit of an interstellar courier or a Starfleet technician.
  • Team Collaboration: Assist higher-level engineers in tackling complex technical issues, learning and growing alongside seasoned Jedi Masters or Starfleet officers.
  • Documentation: Create and update support materials, leaving a legacy of knowledge like a Jedi holocron or Starfleet technical manual.

Hard Skills:

  • Technical Proficiency: Basic knowledge of computer hardware and software, with the ability to troubleshoot and repair devices effectively.
  • Adaptability: Quick learner, capable of adapting to new technologies and environments, much like a Starfleet cadet or Jedi youngling mastering new skills.
  • Communication: Strong communication skills, able to converse fluently in technical jargon (R2D2's beeps) and layman's terms (C3PO's human-speak).
  • Reliability: Dependable and security-minded, ensuring that all tasks are completed with precision and care.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Experience: Previous experience in a support or technical role is a plus, but enthusiasm and a willingness to learn are key.
  • Multitasking: Ability to juggle multiple issues simultaneously, whether handling a frozen screen one moment and coordinating a network repair the next.
  • Customer Focus: Strong interpersonal skills, dedicated to building positive relationships with clients and providing top-notch support.
  • Tech Savvy: Familiarity with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems, as well as a desire to expand your technical knowledge.

Join us at Restech and embark on a career where you can make a real difference. Live long and prosper, and may the Force be with you!
