Windows System Administrator

*Pay will be based on experience.

Definition of the position:

Assist in the administration of all Windows platforms. This will focus primarily on Windows Server operating systems and essential applications installed thereon. There will be an occasional need for Windows desktop support. Additionally, Enterprise System duties that fall outside of the Windows platform will be encountered on a sometimes daily basis.

Essential Functions and Responsibilities to the position:

Duties will typically range from least complex (Level I) to most complex (Level IV). Initially only Level I duties will be covered, though as the employee’s skillsets develop, Level II through Level IV duties will be included. By the nature of the position, all upper-level positions will be expected to perform lower-level duties where needed. Additionally, though lower-level positions will obviously not be expected to possess the knowledge of upper-level duties as a whole, they may be expected to perform some upper-level duties beyond their current level. As upper-level duties are learned and acquired, this provides the means for advancement to higher positions.
