• Support technology rollouts, dealership openings, and major deployment projects.
• Maintain documentation, ticket updates, and detailed notes to ensure continuity of support.
• Identify recurring issues, propose improvements, and take initiative in finding solutions.
• Collaborate with the broader IT team while acting as the primary technical resource for Alaska operations.

WORKING CONDITIONS/ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS:
• Primarily indoor office environments with occasional exposure to outdoor weather during on-site visits.
• May encounter moderate noise, cleaning chemicals, or other standard workplace hazards.

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS:
• Standing/walking: Frequently, up to ¾ of the work shift, often on hard surfaces.
• Sitting: Frequently, up to ¾ of the work shift.
