Engineering
IT Technicians (Support and Operations)
Role Overview
These roles are more about keeping things running, supporting users, and handling the day-to-day infrastructure than about building new systems. They are included separately because the criteria genuinely differ. Holding a technician to an engineer's standard, or the reverse, wastes everyone's time.
Responsibilities
- - Provide first-line support to staff, resolving everyday hardware, software, connectivity and access issues promptly and patiently.
- - Maintain and monitor day-to-day infrastructure, including devices, networks and basic system configuration.
- - Manage user access requests within defined boundaries, respecting the seriousness of sensitive systems.
- - Log, track and escalate issues that exceed their level, rather than tinkering blindly with things they do not fully understand.
- - Perform routine maintenance and setup tasks dependably, from device provisioning to basic backups and checks.
- - Support engineers and the team leader with operational tasks during deployments and incidents as needed.
Requirements
- - A foundational understanding of IT systems: networking basics, operating systems, hardware, and common troubleshooting. One to two years of relevant experience, or strong evidence of practical aptitude even if the formal experience is light.
- - The ability to diagnose and resolve everyday issues: connectivity, device problems, user access, basic system configuration, with a logical, patient approach to problems they have not seen before.
- - Basic data-handling discipline. Even at this level they may touch systems holding sensitive information, so they need to understand access boundaries and the seriousness of customer data. This is where a lot of organisations get careless, and exactly where breaches start.
- - Clear communication with non-technical staff, because much of the job is helping colleagues who are frustrated and not fluent in the jargon. Patience here is a real skill, not a nicety.
Nice to Have
- Desirable criteria
- - Relevant certifications such as CompTIA, networking, or vendor-specific credentials.
- - Some scripting ability for automating repetitive tasks.
- - Familiarity with the kind of office and field environments Triax operates in.
- Disposition and character
- - Dependable, willing to do the routine work without cutting corners.
- - Honest about escalating things beyond their level rather than tinkering blindly.
- - Steady with people who are having a bad tech day.
What We Offer
- - Stable employment with a clear entry point into a growing technology company.
- - A practical pathway to develop toward engineering roles for those who show aptitude and appetite.
- - Support for relevant certifications such as CompTIA, networking, or vendor-specific credentials.
- - Hands-on exposure to the systems and operations of a regulated fintech and insurtech business.
- - Standard employment benefits including health cover and leave, in a steady and supportive working environment.
