Systems Support Engineer (PRO) / IT Administrator

Systems Support Engineer (PRO) / IT Administrator

Maddox is the nation's leading provider of electrical transformers to the commercial and industrial market, with primary locations in South Carolina, Washington State, Texas, Idaho, and Ohio. We have been recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest-growing companies in America for the past 8 years and counting.

Maddox was founded on Christian values, and we are serious about investing in the people, processes, and culture that make this a great place to work. We build real things, solve real problems, and expect professionalism, competence, and integrity from our team.

You will be responsible for supporting the technology experience of Maddox PRO employees and partners, the administration of network, surveillance, and building access control systems, and for handling both vendor management and administration of a wide-range of hardware and software. The systems you will oversee will be primarily focused on network infrastructure and IT asset management (hardware, software evaluations & implementation).

Your work will enable your colleagues to perform their tasks with speed and efficiency, enabling them to launch and manage Maddox facilities and Battle Ground Hospitality Collective companies/entities, administer and level-up internal tools and workflows, and keep employees moving with first-class user support. Your hands-on, proactive approach to maintenance, your speedy responses to requests, and your ability to identify problems and engineer solutions quickly will give the team a competitive edge.

You will respond to internal user support requests with the posture of a first-class customer success agent and resolve issues in a timely manner. You will provide users with access to systems, investigate and troubleshoot software and hardware failures, coordinate with external support teams and vendors, solve both documented and novel problems that arise within our various 3rd party systems, and replace faulty equipment.

You will proactively ensure that all Maddox team members have the technological tools they need to be successful. You will set up new users and change access permissions as roles change. You will maintain and support a fleet of devices deployed across the business. You will ensure that networks are online and that facilities are secured by functional surveillance and access control systems.

Maddox maintains a give-the-best/expect-the-best attitude. Our team is equipped with MacBook Pros, docks, multiple external monitors, iPads, and related peripherals. We have a stipend-supported BYOD mobile policy and our team uses a variety of both iOS and Android smartphones.

We exclusively employ cloud-based solutions that enable our team to work from anywhere. We prefer to integrate single-focus, best-in-class SaaS products, rather than rely on all-inclusive enterprise solutions. Solutions we currently employ include: Apple MacBooks and iPads, Apple Business Manager + Mosyle MDM, Google Workspace, Slack, Ubiquiti Unifi (Network, Protect, Access, UID), RingCentral, Metabase, ProCore, Linear, Asana, Adobe products, Zapier, QuickBooks Time, Office 365, and others.
