Overview

Role Overview

The IT Support Specialist is a senior individual contributor on the Service Desk team, responsible for resolving complex escalations from T1, owning advanced troubleshooting across endpoints, identity, and infrastructure, and serving as a technical resource and informal mentor to junior analysts. This role operates within our follow-the-sun support model and is critical to ensuring that incidents requiring deeper expertise are resolved quickly and completely.

IT Support Specialists at HealthEdge carry both a T2 and T3 designation. T2 scope covers advanced endpoint, application, and identity issues. T3 scope extends into near-infrastructure territory — complex integrations, escalated security events, and issues requiring coordination with Network Engineering, OpsSec, or cloud teams. As the team matures, these levels may be formally split; this role is designed to grow with that evolution.
