Job Title: Computer Support Specialist Department: Information Technology Location: Addison, TX — On-Site, 5 Days Per Week Role Type: Contract-to-Hire Experience Required: 2–3 Years in Desktop / IT Support

About Our Client

Our client is one of the fastest-growing data center developers and operators in North America, delivering hyperscale and enterprise-grade infrastructure solutions to some of the world's most demanding technology organizations. With a national footprint of purpose-built campuses and a mission centered on scalability, reliability, and innovation, this organization supports the backbone of modern digital infrastructure. They operate with a customer-first mindset, a culture of operational excellence, and a commitment to developing their people alongside their facilities.

Job Description

The Computer Support Specialist will serve as a frontline technical resource responsible for diagnosing, resolving, and documenting hardware and software issues across the organization's on-site user base in Addison, TX. Day-to-day, you will own your ticket queue, support PC and mobile devices, configure and troubleshoot local and network printers, and deliver clear, patient technical guidance to end users at all skill levels. You will work both independently and alongside a collaborative IT team in a fast-paced, mission-critical environment where uptime and responsiveness are paramount.

This role exists because our client is scaling rapidly and needs a capable, self-directed technician who can handle day-to-day IT support without hand-holding. You will report to IT leadership and collaborate cross-functionally with internal teams to ensure every employee has the tools and access they need to operate at full capacity. The ideal candidate takes pride in resolution speed, documents everything, and genuinely enjoys helping people solve technical problems.

This is a contract-to-hire opportunity — meaning you'll come in, prove your value, and convert to a permanent full-time employee. It's an ideal landing spot for an early-career IT professional with 2–3 years of hands-on support experience who is ready to work in a structured enterprise environment with real stakes, real complexity, and real room to grow.

• Train end users on basic hardware and software usage including Microsoft 365 applications
• Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical users to resolve issues efficiently
• Assist with onboarding and offboarding — software provisioning, account setup, and device configuration
• Support occasional after-hours or weekend maintenance windows as required
  
  

Required Experience & Skills

• 2–3 years of experience in a desktop support, help desk, or IT support technician role
• Hands-on troubleshooting experience with Windows 10/11 and macOS in a professional setting
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 administration (user management, licensing, mailbox config)
• Experience with Active Directory — user provisioning, password resets, GPO awareness, and SSO support
• Familiarity with a ticket-based ITSM platform (ServiceNow, Cherwell, Jira, or equivalent)
• Basic networking knowledge — TCP/IP, DNS, VPN connectivity, wireless troubleshooting
• Printer support experience — local and network-connected devices
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with a customer-first mindset
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and work occasional evenings/weekends as needed
