Full Job Description
Join Ventura Housing as Our Senior Information Technology Technician

This is more than a traditional IT support position. As a senior technical resource and team leader, you will help guide day-to-day IT operations, mentor and support team members, troubleshoot complex technology challenges, and work closely with the Director of Information Technology and Maintenance on projects that directly impact the Agency. From cybersecurity and cloud services to enterprise applications and infrastructure, you will have the opportunity to work across a broad and evolving technology environment.

The position offers hands-on involvement with Microsoft 365, Windows environments, cloud services, identity management, networking, servers, firewalls, telecommunications, endpoint management, cybersecurity tools, backup systems, and specialized technologies such as video surveillance, electronic access control, VoIP, resident Wi-Fi, and conferencing systems.

You will also help support and enhance Yardi, Ventura Housing's critical enterprise business platform. Working with departments throughout the Agency, you will learn how our programs operate, troubleshoot application issues, develop reports and dashboards, test enhancements, and identify opportunities to improve workflows through technology, automation, and better use of data.

Just as importantly, this position provides an opportunity to lead and influence.

You will be encouraged to research emerging technologies and recommend solutions that strengthen cybersecurity, reliability, operational efficiency, and customer service.

We are looking for someone who combines strong technical ability with initiative, sound judgment, excellent communication, and a genuine commitment to helping others succeed. Experience in a public agency, housing authority, affordable housing organization, or other regulated environment is especially valuable.

If you are ready to take the next step in your IT career and want your technical expertise to support an organization with a meaningful community mission, Ventura Housing offers an exciting opportunity to lead, innovate, and make an impact.
