  • Provide technical support and troubleshooting for system-related issues, working closely with the system administration team, help desk team, as well as end-users to resolve problems efficiently.
  • Manage and maintain the company's Windows domain infrastructure, ensuring its stability, security, and performance. Administer and optimize Active Directory, including user and group management, security policies, and group policies. Implement and maintain cloud services and platforms, with a particular focus on Microsoft Azure.
  • Identify system-related challenges and proactively propose solutions to enhance efficiency, reliability, and performance. Stay up to date with emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices to drive continuous improvement and innovation.

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field or equivalent experience. Relevant certifications (e.g., Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) are a plus.
  • 5+ years of System Administrator experience in a mid to enterprise-size environment.
  • Strong knowledge of systems architecture, server networking principles, and virtualization technologies in both a Microsoft and open-source environment.

    Statement of Faith

    Based on our adherence to the inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God in Scripture, we profess with the Christian Church throughout time and around the world the faith expressed in the Apostles' Creed :

    I believe in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

    Doctrinal Distinctives

  • We believe in the spiritual unity and equality of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • We believe that the Lordship of Christ requires us as disciples to seek to conform our actions, thoughts, and desires in obedience to Him.
  • We believe God creates each person with an immutable biological sex — male or female — that reflects the image and likeness of God.
  • We believe God designed marriage as a unique conjugal relationship joining one man and one woman in a single, exclusive, life-long union, and God intends sexual intimacy only to occur within that relationship.
  • We believe God endows all human life with inherent dignity, and it must be respected and protected from conception to natural death.
  • We believe that God has endowed all humans with the natural, and inalienable right of religious freedom to believe, pursue truth, and live within ordered liberty such that no civil government may justly infringe upon it.
  • We believe that God, through His Son, Jesus Christ, calls all of us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him, knowing that He promises us abundant and eternal life.
