Executive Deskside Support Engineer

Leidos is looking for a Executive Deskside Support Engineer to support the Enterprise Standard Architecture V (ESA V) program, in Washington, DC. ESA V is an IT Services program supporting several customers within the Department of Justice. The program provides a range of IT services, including help desk, deskside support, Windows workstation engineering and maintenance, managed print services, ITSM, Active Directory services, and video conferencing, among others.

This position will be part of an Executive Support team focused on providing direct IT support to the Senior Leadership Offices within the Department of Justice. Due to the critical importance of the work done in these offices, timely and professional response to all incidents and service requests must be achieved. Our staff are expected to be able to operate in spaces with senior-level government staff acting with the appropriate level of decorum, customer service skill, and clear professional communication.

Please note that this "white glove" service may sometimes require after-hours support to be provided.

As a result of the work that our customers do and the time pressures of the work they perform, our staff are often asked to provide assistance with limited visibility into the issues ahead of time. We expect team members to be flexible and able to adjust rapidly, with the strong technical skills needed to identify and resolve issue on the fly with limited reach back assistance.

All work for the team will be tracked in a ticketing system.
