IT Student Assistant
Picture yourself supporting talented colleagues on business-critical financial software, where shaving off every microsecond of processing time matters.
If that sounds like your kind of challenge, a role as an IT Student Assistant might be right for you!
About the Role
As our new IT Student Assistant, you will be part of the Tech team, which consists of approximately 34 Software Engineers. The majority of the team is focused on developing in-house financial software in C#.
You will work closely and report to the Senior System Administrator, with whom you will collaborate on general IT operation tasks such as support and maintenance, as well as infrastructure projects.
The environment consists of both Windows and Linux based devices, therefore, scripting in PowerShell and Bash are a big plus. Some hands on experience in an IT environment is preferred.
Some of the main responsibilities of the role include, but are not limited to:
Providing end-user support for software and hardware.
Configuring and maintaining workstations and servers.
Helping maintain and automate infrastructure with tools like Active Directory, Ansible and Docker.
The role requires you to work 15-20 hours a week, with flexibility given during exam times.
About the Team
All of this will happen in an informal atmosphere where technical discussions are valued, and you are encouraged to take ownership of, and pride in, your work. We enjoy collaboration and are always willing to lend a helping hand. We are working alongside two other teams of quantitative analysts and economists that conceive the mathematical models. What makes this constellation work great is that all of the individual team members write code and understand that a seemingly trivial change can actually require a lot of work, and vice versa.
About You
About to start or has just started a Master's program in a relevant technical and mathematical discipline.
Basic understanding of computer systems and hardware.
Experience with PowerShell and/or Bash scripting.
Some experience with networking and troubleshooting.
Enthusiasm for both independent tasks, following instructions, and user support requests.
