  • Participate in projects to change our studio infrastructure and facilities including migrations, upgrades or deployments, and set a standard for the rest of the team.
  • Build and maintain well-crafted documentation as a priority.
  • Deliver scripting and automation as needed using bash or python.
  • Work may require you to lift equipment or boxes up to 25lbs and work at different levels and hard-to-reach places, e.g. when installing or maintaining desktop or server installations and cabling.

What You Bring

  • Experience coordinating and navigating a multi-OS environment including Linux, Windows and macOS for both server and desktop, with a high degree of confidence in at least one of those.
  • Experience supporting high-end virtual and bare-metal workstations. Methodical and systematic approach to resolving performance issues.
  • Deep curiosity about technology, especially, specifically as it applies to visual effects and games production. A demonstrable understanding of GPU technology is beneficial.
  • Effective use of time and aspiring to balance and prioritize multiple concurrent requests, while also maintaining a high standard in service delivery and follow-through. Asking for help when needed.
  • Exceptional customer service skills, delivered with a professional and courteous demeanour.
  • Effective and efficient communications skills to break down and explain highly technical issues to both technical and non-technical audiences!
  • Previous experience in visual effects, gaming or similar creative studio environments would be phenomenal. Proven experience with white-glove support for clients, creative leadership and VIPs is also useful.
