Systems AdministratorJob no: 495206Closes: Work Type: Staff Full-TimeLocations: Baton Rouge, LACategories: Information Technology, Systems Administration

Do you dream in PowerShell, speak fluent Group Policy, and occasionally argue with printers (and win)? If so, we want you on our team!

We’re looking for a Systems Administrator who knows their way around Windows Servers, Active Directory, SCCM, Intune, Microsoft 365, and Teams Voice. VMware skills are a nice bonus, but if you can tame patch cycles, wrangle stubborn updates, and keep users happily connected, you’re already our kind of IT hero.

What You’ll Do

• Keep our Windows Server and Active Directory environment running smoother than a reboot after Patch Tuesday.
• Deploy and manage workstations with SCCM and Intune (no more “it works on my machine” excuses).
• Manage Microsoft 365 and Teams Voice (yes, phones are still a thing).
• Handle patching and vulnerability remediation like a pro.
• Provide Tier 2/Tier 3 support (a.k.a. the problems that Google doesn’t solve).

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum of a two-year degree in IT or related field (Bachelor’s preferred).
• At least five years of sysadmin wizardry.
• Strong knowledge of Windows Server/AD, SCCM, Intune, M365.
• Able to work evenings/weekends when the gremlins of downtime appear.
• Great troubleshooting skills and an even better sense of humor.

See below for all of the particulars.
