• Experience working in an MSP environment (strongly preferred)
• Ability to manage multiple tickets and priorities independently
• Strong documentation and organizational skills
• Professional English communication skills (verbal and written)
• Comfortable working directly with U.S.-based end users and stakeholders

Work Environment & Technical Requirements
• Stable, high-speed internet connection (minimum 50 Mbps recommended, low latency)
• Backup internet option highly preferred
• Quiet, professional home office environment
• High-quality noise-canceling headset required for phone and VoIP communication
• Reliable power setup (UPS recommended)

Preferred Qualifications
