Jobs at Joerns Healthcare (Now Hiring) — 2 open

Position Summary

We are seeking a versatile IT Systems Administrator to join our growing technology team. This hybrid role blends network administration, end-user support, and systems analysis into a single position, making it ideal for a well-rounded technologist who enjoys variety. You'll keep our network running smoothly and serve as the trusted go-to for employees who need help. This position will contribute to evaluating and improving the systems that drive our business. This position is well-suited for someone who thrives in a mid-sized environment (50–500 employees) where IT staff wear multiple hats and have direct visibility into how their work impacts the organization.

 

What Success Looks Like

In your first 90 days, you'll have built relationships with team leads across the company, mastered our ticketing system, and become familiar with our network topology and core systems. Within six months, you'll be independently resolving the majority of issues, leading at least one systems-improvement initiative, and contributing meaningfully to IT planning conversations.

 

Why Join Us

This is a high-impact role where your work is visible, varied, and valued. You won't be siloed into a narrow specialty — you'll grow your skills across networking, support, and systems work while shaping the IT functionality of a mid-sized organization.

Onboard new employees by setting up accounts, equipment, and access permissions, and offboard departing staff securely. Maintain the IT knowledge base and create user-facing documentation and training materials, while delivering occasional training sessions on tools, security awareness, and best practices.

 

Systems Analysis (≈30%)

Evaluate existing business systems and workflows to identify opportunities for improvement, automation, or consolidation. Gather requirements from stakeholders across departments and translate business needs into technical specifications.
