We are seeking an experienced **IT Systems Administrator** for a direct-hire opportunity with a manufacturing operation in Southeast Houston.

This is a hands-on position responsible for supporting the company's IT infrastructure, end users, Microsoft environment, and ERP systems. The role combines traditional systems administration and help-desk responsibilities with ERP support, SQL/database work, system customization, and technology improvement projects.

The ideal candidate has experience supporting **ERP systems within a manufacturing environment** and is comfortable working directly with users, troubleshooting technical issues, supporting databases and integrations, and reading or modifying code when needed.

## Key Responsibilities

- Monitor and maintain computer networks, information systems, security, and overall system health.
- Provide hands-on help-desk support for hardware, software, desktop, printer, and user issues.
- Administer Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, and Teams-based phone systems.
- Support and maintain ERP applications, databases, integrations, and customizations.
- Work with SQL Server, T-SQL, SSRS, and Visual Studio to support reporting and business-system requirements.
- Troubleshoot ERP and application issues and coordinate with users, vendors, and external technology partners.
- Gather business requirements and develop or enhance solutions that improve operational efficiency.
- Identify opportunities to automate manual processes and improve system functionality.
- Evaluate hardware and software needs and proactively manage technology end-of-life requirements.
- Analyze systems for cybersecurity vulnerabilities and implement appropriate safeguards.
- Support wireless communications and messaging platforms.
- Educate employees on technology resources, system functionality, and best practices.
- Support business continuity, disaster recovery, data protection, and system-recovery initiatives.
- Collaborate with Manufacturing, Operations, Accounting, and other departments on technology and ERP improvement projects.

## Required Qualifications

- 3–5+ years of experience in systems administration, IT support, or a related technical role.
- Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.
- Hands-on experience supporting ERP systems in a manufacturing environment.
- Strong systems administration, troubleshooting, and end-user support experience.
- Experience administering Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams.
- Working experience with SQL Server, T-SQL, SSRS, and/or Visual Studio.
- Ability to understand, troubleshoot, and modify code or system customizations when required.
- Strong communication, organization, documentation, and customer-service skills.
- Ability to manage multiple technical priorities in a hands-on manufacturing environment.
- Ability to work full-time onsite in Southeast Houston.

## Preferred Qualifications

- Strong ERP system administration and database experience.
- Manufacturing, fabrication, or job-shop industry experience.
- Experience gathering business requirements and developing custom business solutions.
- Experience with automation and business-process improvement initiatives.
- Experience supporting disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
- Experience working with external ERP, software, or IT vendors and consultants.

## What We're Looking For

This opportunity is best suited for someone who enjoys being a **hands-on IT resource** while also taking ownership of larger ERP and systems-improvement initiatives. Candidates should be equally comfortable helping an employee resolve a technical issue, troubleshooting an ERP or database problem, and developing a longer-term solution that improves how the business operates.
