Job Description

About the Role

We are looking for a Help Desk / IT Support Specialist to join our US team. You will be the first point of contact when something breaks, something does not load, or someone cannot get in. Your job is to get people back on track quickly and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. This is a fully remote position open to candidates anywhere in the United States.


What You Will Do

  • Handle incoming support tickets through tools like Zendesk, Jira, or ServiceNow and make sure every one of them gets resolved

  • Troubleshoot hardware, software, and connectivity issues across Windows and macOS environments

  • Manage user accounts and access permissions using Active Directory and Microsoft 365

  • Support networking issues including VPN connectivity, DNS, and basic TCP/IP troubleshooting

  • Write up clear documentation and keep the internal knowledge base up to date so issues do not repeat

  • Escalate complex or recurring problems to the right team with context included

What We Are Looking For

  • At least 1 year of experience in IT support or a helpdesk role

  • Hands-on experience with Windows and macOS

  • Familiarity with at least one ticketing system (Zendesk, Jira, or ServiceNow)

  • Basic understanding of networking: VPN, DNS, TCP/IP

  • You can explain technical issues in plain language without making people feel bad for asking

  • Comfortable working independently and staying on top of your queue without someone checking in constantly

Salary: $25–$30/hour

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
