  • Troubleshoot load-shedding related outages and UPS failures

You'll need

  • Degree or diploma in IT, plus relevant certifications
  • Strong Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365 skills, or Linux for Linux posts
  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • Solid TCP/IP, routing, switching and firewall knowledge

Extra points for
