Some key duties:

• provisioning, supporting and maintaining laptops, desktops computers, electronic displays, and more

Come live in the Upper Valley of the Connecticut River, a great area for outdoor activities. Enjoy commutes without traffic, and the natural beauty of New England, while becoming part of one of the tight-knit local communities in the area. It’s also easy to take a day-trip to the ocean, the White Mountains, or Boston.
