Contract IT Systems / Support Engineer - Orchard SW / Lab experience

Hoffman Estates, IL

This is a contract to perm position based in Hoffman Estates, IL and working in a lab environment. We are unable to consider C2C or H1B. 

While experience with Lab Information Systems SW experience (Specifically Orchard / Clinisys software and associated Lab Equipment) would be an immediate "knock in" for us, it is not required. What is required is a polished, service-minded IT Systems Engineer to lead in-office support at our Hoffman Estates Lab environment and their employees.

You’ll be responsible for ensuring a seamless experience across devices, AV systems, collaboration tools, and SaaS platforms. From onboarding new team members to running executive all-hands meetings without a hitch, you’ll be the local face of IT—proactive, calm under pressure, and committed to operational excellence. 

This role blends hands-on technical systems work (primarily macOS and SaaS tools like Google Workspace, Jamf, Okta, Zoom) with the finesse required to support C-suite leaders and sensitive environments. We’re a mission-driven company operating in a HIPAA-regulated space, so attention to detail and discretion are essential. 

What You’ll Do 

  • Administer and support Google Workspace, Zoom, Slack, Orchard Software and other core SaaS tools, including user provisioning and access management. 
  • Deliver in-person support at our Hoffman Estates office, resolving hardware, software, and connectivity issues with professionalism and empathy. 
  • Provide executive-level support, ensuring devices, meetings, travel tech, and day-to-day systems are reliable, secure, and responsive. 
  • Set up, configure, and maintain employee laptops (primarily macOS), ensuring compliance through tools like Jamf or similar MDM platforms. 
  • Support and maintain AV systems and Zoom Rooms for hybrid meetings, events, and executive communications. 
  • Manage onboarding and offboarding tasks, including equipment provisioning, account setup, and welcome orientation. 
  • Triage and resolve IT tickets via help desk systems, Slack, Zoom, and email—prioritizing clarity, speed, and accountability. 
  • Collaborate with IT and Security on automation, process improvements, and internal documentation to enhance the employee tech experience. 
  • Ensure all support activities comply with HIPAA, SOC 2, HITRUST, and internal security standards. 

What We’re Looking For 

  • 3–5 years of experience in IT systems support, preferably in a SaaS or fast-paced hybrid environment. 
  • Experience with Orchard Lab Information Systems Software and Associated Lab Equipment is preferred but not required. 
  • Strong knowledge of macOS and Apple hardware troubleshooting. 
  • Experience with Google Workspace, Zoom, and cloud-based collaboration tools. 
  • Hands-on experience supporting AV equipment and Zoom Room configurations. 
  • Familiarity with Jamf or other Apple device management tools. 
  • Impeccable customer service and communication skills—especially when working with senior leaders. 
  • Strong organizational and prioritization abilities; able to work independently with minimal supervision. 
  • Clear understanding of IT operations within security-conscious environments (HIPAA, SOC 2, HITRUST).
