About the Role

We are seeking a motivated IT Specialist Intern to join our team and gain hands-on experience across corporate IT operations. This role focuses on the day-to-day work that keeps IT running — user onboarding and offboarding, asset management, and frontline support — while building exposure to enterprise tooling, monitoring, and automation. You will work alongside experienced engineers who will mentor you on real infrastructure in a fast-moving environment. The ideal candidate is eager to learn, detail-oriented, and ready to take ownership of tasks that directly support the team.

Key Responsibilities

• Execute user onboarding and offboarding workflows — account provisioning, hardware setup, and access removal

• Manage IT asset inventory — track, tag, and audit laptops, peripherals, and equipment throughout their lifecycle

• Image, deploy, and prepare laptops and workstations for new hires and replacements

• Maintain stock of IT supplies and peripherals; monitor levels and coordinate reorders

• Respond to help desk tickets and provide frontline support for common hardware, software, and access issues

• Assist with monitoring and alerting — triage alerts, escalate issues, and help maintain dashboards

• Support patching and software deployment tasks under engineer guidance

• Maintain and improve IT documentation — runbooks, how-to guides, and inventory records

• Assist with office IT logistics: conference room AV, desk setups, and equipment moves

Qualifications

Required:

• Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in IT, computer science, or a related field — or equivalent self-taught/certification path (A+, Network+)

• Basic understanding of operating systems (Windows and macOS) and common productivity tools

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

• Clear written and verbal communication; comfortable helping non-technical users

• Ability to lift and move IT equipment as needed

Preferred:

• Exposure to ticketing/ITSM systems

• Familiarity with scripting basics (Python, PowerShell, or Bash)

• Interest in networking, identity management, or infrastructure automation

• Prior customer service or help desk experience
