Job Title: Associate, IT Operations

Location: Kwara, Nigeria

  • Provide first line technical support to school staff, assisting them to diagnose and resolve hardware and software problems remotely and in person
  • Visit operational sites to assist school staff by deploying academy technology, including both new installations and redeployment of existing equipment
  • Provide technical support for teaching accessories including smartphones, teacher tablets, power banks, and any other assets that may be made available
  • Ensure the efficiency and reliability of Internet service and computer environment in the support office
  • Install and configure operating systems and software to agreed standards under the direction of the IT Manager
  • Maintain existing equipment to standards determined by the IT Manager, by performing upgrades, new installations, and carrying out routine procedures
  • Maintain a high degree of customer service support for all support queries and adhere to all service management principles and policies
  • Maintain a record of any software or hardware problems detected, escalate when appropriate
  • Use data provided by reports to detect and even anticipate problems in the field so as to drive resolution before the issue is even reported
  • Fix teaching technology hardware issues like broken charging ports, depleted batteries, screens etc.

What You Should Have

  • Bachelor’s Degree in IT, or related Information Technology field of study
  • Minimum of three years of work experience in the ICT environment
  • Ability to use tools like soldering irons to fix hardware issues
  • Experience in troubleshooting hardware and performing tasks like changing batteries, screens, motherboards, and other working equipment in order to fix broken devices like tablets and smartphones
  • Working technical knowledge of current protocols, operating systems and standards
  • Excellent technical knowledge of PC hardware
  • Software and hardware troubleshooting
  • Basic experience with routers, switches, and firewalls
  • Experience with Microsoft suite applications and exposure to basic troubleshooting 
  • Understanding of TCP/IP and Local Area Networks
  • Excellent writing and oral communication skills
  • Good research skills, including the ability to identify and propose solutions to issues/crisis
  • Knowledge of Android operating system and smartphones
  • Vendor neutral industry certification such as: Cisco CCNA, CompTIA Network+, A+, or MCTIP certification.

You’re also:

  • A detailed doer – You have a track record of getting things done. You’re organized and responsive. You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets, engaging others, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You can multi-task dozens of such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a start-up or other rapid-growth company.
  • A networking mastermind – You excel at meeting new people and turning them into advocates.  You communicate in a clear, conscientious, and effective way in both written and oral speech. You can influence strangers in the course of a single conversation. Allies and colleagues will go to bat for your ideas. You have an existing network from prior experience in the country, preferably in the regulatory, education, or business sectors.
  • A creative problem-solver – Growing any business from scratch comes with massive and constant challenges. On top of that, KwaraLEARN works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand.
  • A relentless advocate –The children we serve and teachers we empower never leave your mind. You know them, get them, have shared a meal with them (or would be happy to in the future). You would never shrink back from shaking a parent’s hand or picking up a crying child, no matter what the person was wearing or looked like.  Every decision you make considers their benefit, experience,
    and value.
  • A malleable learner –You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism and provide it freely to others.  You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where you’ve missed things or failed today.
  • A data-driven decision-maker – When making decisions, you don’t rely on your intuition alone. You collect data, you analyze it and make decisions with clear justifications.
  • A curious investigator – You ask why a lot. You don’t just take what you see and accept it. You wonder why it is that way, and are aware that the world we see is created by human choices and actions – and it could be different. You wonder, and see the world as wonderful even when you want to change a part of it that is unjust.
