It Systems Specialist

Description:

An IT Systems Specialist shares responsibility with the other members of the Technical Services Team for the ongoing administration of all district network systems. The work requires a high level of technical and analytical skill and includes the development and maintenance of related IT solutions. The work is accomplished in direct consultation with other members of the Technical Services Team, in particular the Information Technology Supervisor, Information Technology Manager and, on occasion, with other departments. The work involves the installation, administration, and maintenance of all district network systems and related computer equipment. The Technical Services team will decide collectively on the division of the existing workload based on areas of expertise. Each IT Systems Specialist will be responsible for maintaining user network access. Work also involves, as necessary, the installation, maintenance and repair of various related networking equipment and computer hardware. An IT Systems Specialist must be able to function effectively in often stressful and sometimes urgent situations without supervision or direction and must have a demonstrated ability to know when to request assistance from other members of the Technical Services team as well as other tech support contacts and services. It is understood that an IT Systems Specialist, because of the high level of access to confidential and personal information, will maintain the highest level of confidentiality in all activities.
