Computer Resource Consulting (CRC) here at Stanford is looking for a Technical Consultant to provide desktop support and consulting to our world-class institution. That’s our working title for people who love to help others, tackle interesting problems, enjoy variety, and have a passion for tech.
That real passion for tech will serve you well, as what you will be responsible for in our organization is different than many other places that do IT support. We are an internal service center (meaning we charge Stanford for our services), but we are still Stanford employees. We balance “running a phenomenal business” and “doing the right thing.” We know we do a great job because our clients love us, and we take pride in that. Instead of puffing ourselves way up, maybe it’s best to illustrate things with do’s and don’ts.
So, what would you actually be doing? Well, that’s a hard question to answer. This is a role best suited for those experienced in providing IT support, so you will be given a lot of autonomy, and we’d expect you to learn pretty quickly how to best fill your days with things that help our clients. Lot’s of it is hardware, software, networking, and application support. Some of it is consulting (we call it “being a trusted guide”), and a bit of it is “not really fun but needs to get done” administrative stuff.
Our clients span all the variety of Stanford. We support groups from the Football team to Arctic researchers, faculty, staff, graduate students, and everyone in between. They all do amazing things and we’re a part of that.
Education & Experience:
Two-year college degree and two or more years of relevant experience or a combination of education and relevant experience.
None
