The Role:
We are looking for an ambitious, motivated and knowledgeable TechOps Specialist to help build a world-class IT experience at TravelPerk.

You will need to be smart, adaptable, comfortable with ambiguity and people-focused. You should have a background in something technical and love learning how things work in IT. The more experience the better!
What you'll do:
As an IT Support Specialist, you’ll play a tactical, hands-on role in supporting our fast-moving, AI-focused startup. You’ll be the go-to person for day-to-day IT needs—especially those related to Mac support, hardware lifecycle management, and office IT logistics. This is a role for someone who thrives in execution mode and enjoys solving problems quickly and efficiently. Your responsibilities will include:
- IT Support: Serve as the first line of defense for employee IT issues, with deep focus on macOS troubleshooting, application support, and network connectivity.
- Hardware Management: Own the full device lifecycle—procurement, deployment, inventory tracking, loaner pool oversight, and device re-provisioning for offboarded users.
- Repair & Warranty Coordination: Interface with vendors for repairs, warranty claims, and AppleCare tracking.
- Accessory & AV Oversight: Manage inventory of peripherals and maintain conference room AV systems to ensure smooth daily operations.
- IT Onboarding: Set up laptops and essential software for new hires, delivering a seamless onboarding experience.
- Proactive Planning: Monitor hardware aging and coordinate refresh cycles to stay ahead of team needs.
- IT Logistics: Support software installs, device shipments, office moves, and other day-to-day IT coordination needs.
What you'll bring
- Experience: 3-5+ years in IT support or systems administration, with strong MacOS experience in a fast-paced or startup environment.
- Technical Proficiency: Comfort with endpoint management tools, MDM systems (e.g., Jamf), and troubleshooting across Mac hardware/software.
- Organization: Highly organized with a systems-oriented mindset—able to track devices and inventory across multiple offices, beneficial if hands on experience with Oomnitza.
- Execution Focused: Bias for action and ability to troubleshoot, solve problems, and follow through independently.
- Communication: Friendly, clear communicator who can help teammates quickly and patiently—whether they’re in-office or remote.
Even better...
- Experience supporting hybrid teams or distributed environments.
- Familiarity with AV equipment and tools like Zoom Rooms, Logitech or Polycom setups.
- Past experience working with Apple Business Manager or zero-touch deployment tools.
- Passion for documentation, process improvement, and enabling others to solve simple issues themselves.
