Full Job Description
Location: Boston, (On-site, within commuting distance to the Bos hub)

The Role:

We are looking for an ambitious, motivated and knowledgeable TechOps Specialist to help build a world-class IT experience at Perk.

In this role you will be an instrumental part of every aspect of IT at Perk. You will be responsible for everything from helping users day-to-day to delivering big projects that alter the course of the company.

You will need to be smart, adaptable, comfortable with ambiguity and people-focused. You should have a background in something technical and love learning how things work in IT. The more experience the better!

What you9ll do:

As an IT Support Specialist, you9ll play a tactical, hands-on role in supporting our fast-moving, AI-focused startup. You9ll be the go-to person for day-to-day IT needs-especially those related to Mac support, hardware lifecycle management, and office IT logistics. This is a role for someone who thrives in execution mode and enjoys solving problems quickly and efficiently. Your responsibilities will include:
  • IT Support: Serve as the first line of defense for employee IT issues, with deep focus on macOS troubleshooting, application support, and network connectivity.
  • Hardware Management: Own the full device lifecycle-procurement, deployment, inventory tracking, loaner pool oversight, and device re-provisioning for offboarded users.
  • Repair & Warranty Coordination: Interface with vendors for repairs, warranty claims, and AppleCare tracking.
  • Accessory & AV Oversight: Manage inventory of peripherals and maintain conference room AV systems to ensure smooth daily operations.
  • IT Onboarding: Set up laptops and essential software for new hires, delivering a seamless onboarding experience.
  • Proactive Planning: Monitor hardware aging and coordinate refresh cycles to stay ahead of team needs.
  • IT Logistics: Support software installs, device shipments, office moves, and other day-to-day IT coordination needs.

What you9ll bring
  • Experience: 3-5+ years in IT support or systems administration, with strong MacOS experience in a fast-paced or startup environment.
  • Technical Proficiency: Comfort with endpoint management tools, MDM systems (e.g., Jamf), and troubleshooting across Mac hardware/software.
  • Organization: Highly organized with a systems-oriented mindset-able to track devices and inventory across multiple offices, beneficial if hands on experience with Oomnitza.
  • Execution Focused: Bias for action and ability to troubleshoot, solve problems, and follow through independently.
  • Communication: Friendly, clear communicator who can help teammates quickly and patiently-whether they9re in-office or remote.

Even better...
  • Experience supporting hybrid teams or distributed environments.
  • Familiarity with AV equipment and tools like Zoom Rooms, Logitech or Polycom setups.
  • Past experience working with Apple Business Manager or zero-touch deployment tools.
  • Passion for documentation, process improvement, and enabling others to solve simple issues themselves.

What do we offer?
  • Competitive compensation, including equity in Perk
  • Generous vacation days so you can rest and recharge
  • Comprehensive benefit plans covering medical, dental, vision, life, and disability with coverage from your start date
  • Financial benefits like 401k or Roth with company matching, and HSA or FSA plan
  • Subscription to Wellhub, the gym benefit
  • Family services that include adoption benefits and paid parental leave from 12 to 16 weeks
  • Global presence and hybrid working style
  • Unforgettable Perk events, including travel to one of our hubs
  • Learning and professional development opportunities
  • iFeel - a mental health support tool with access to therapists year round
  • Exponential growth opportunities
  • 16 paid hours per year to volunteer for a cause of your choice
  • "Work from anywhere" allowance of 20 working days per year

Compensation

Compensation for this role is a combination of salary and stock options. The anticipated base salary range is $75-000 - 100,000 per year. Actual compensation may vary based on specific qualifications, experience, and other job-related factors.

How We Work

At Perk, we take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in-person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be based within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in the value of meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, creativity and ultimately making us a great place to work.

For certain roles, we can help with relocation from anywhere in the world, English is the official language at the office. Please submit your resume in English if you choose to apply. Do not forget to submit an updated portfolio and/or resume.

Protect Yourself from Recruitment Scams

All official communication from Perk will always come from email addresses ending in [redacted].com or [redacted].com, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page. We will never ask you to pay for equipment, training, or fees, request sensitive personal information such as bank details early in the process, or communicate through unofficial apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal. If you receive a message claiming to be from Perk that seems suspicious, please do not respond. Forward it to security [at] perk .com, and we will confirm whether it is legitimate.
