  • Provide break/fix support for hardware failures during business hours, including battery swaps, cable replacements, device resets, and component-level troubleshooting.
  • Maintain accurate, auditable asset records, tracking device status, physical location (rack/shelf coordinates), hardware specs, testing harness assignment, and lifecycle stage.
  • Manage device retirement and recycling workflows, including secure data wipe and vendor coordination.
  • Support hardware procurement by receiving shipments, validating orders against POs, and coordinating with vendors and internal teams.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation for after-hours support, providing remote troubleshooting off-site and on-site physical intervention when business-critical test infrastructure requires immediate attention.
  • Provide clear, consistent reporting on device health, inventory status, and operational metrics to leadership.
  • Partner with Engineering to define and maintain runbooks for device setup, configuration standards, and escalation paths.
You Have:
  • 3+ years of experience in IT operations, device lab management, hardware support, or a similar hands-on technical role.
  • Strong working knowledge of iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows device configuration and troubleshooting.
  • Experience with physical infrastructure. IDF buildouts, rack-and-stack, structured cabling, and lab environments.
  • Familiarity with MDM platforms (e.g., Jamf, Workspace ONE, Intune) and device enrollment workflows.
  • Basic network configuration knowledge (VLANs, Wi-Fi, DNS, IP addressing).
  • Demonstrated asset management discipline, accurate inventory tracking, lifecycle documentation, and audit readiness
  • Experience with on-call rotations and the ability to respond to urgent on-site issues outside standard hours.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to physical and data cleanliness.
  • Excellent communication and customer service skills, particularly when coordinating across technical teams.
Nice to Haves:
  • ITIL Foundation or ITAM certification/experience
  • Experience with ITAM/CMDB platforms (e.g., Jira Assets, ServiceNow, or similar)
  • Familiarity with ADB, Xcode device management, or CLI-based device tooling
