Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission: making people’s lives better. We’re headquartered in NYC, and offer hybrid NY-based (three days/ week in-office) and select, non-NY-based remote positions.
The IT team collaborates closely with all staff, and across all technology that Betterment relies on every day, striving to provide best in class service.
The IT Support team is integral to Betterment, engaging directly with all employees and the diverse range of technologies they depend on daily. Our responsibilities encompass access management, overseeing the hardware lifecycle, refining user experience processes, addressing software and hardware problems, and overseeing the office's audio-visual setup. We aim to maximize automation to simplify self-support for our team members, yet we ensure they receive personalized, high-quality service. Collaborating closely with the Security team, we utilize our Mac-based management tools to safeguard our staff effectively. We believe that the appropriate tools and automation significantly contribute to the scalability and success of our rapidly expanding business.
In this role, you will be part of the company’s first line of support for all requests that come through the IT ticketing system. You will be assisting our hybrid workforce in-person and through email, Slack, and Zoom. When you aren’t tackling requests, you are reiterating our inventory process, preparing hardware for deployment, taking part in internal project initiatives or taking advantage of our sandbox environments or development resources to learn how to use our tools to further enhance your skill set. The ideal candidate will possess advanced troubleshooting skills; be capable of providing expert assistance with IT Support escalations; confidently and comfortably administer, modify, and enhance IT Support systems; and eager to deploy new features and improvements.
