Role Overview

At Netsense, we live by the motto "IT Simplified". As an On-Site 2nd Line Support Engineer, you are the primary point of contact for resolving technical hurdles and managing the daily flow of the Service Desk, together with visiting clients on a regular basis.

• On-Site Troubleshooting: Provide direct, hands-on support for hardware, networking (VLANs, VPNs, Firewalls), and VOIP systems.
• Workflow Coordination: Ensure the ConnectWise Manage (PSA) board is organized, prioritized, and that all service delivery meets our internal standards.
• Compliance & Documentation: Maintain impeccable records of all physical and digital changes, providing the evidence required for ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials.
• Targeted Automation: Identify repetitive Service Desk tasks and utilize PowerShell or Rewst to create simple, effective scripts that assist the team in daily operations.
• Infrastructure Maintenance: Utilize ConnectWise Automate (RMM) and Remote Desktop Manager to monitor system health and secure credential access.
