  • Assist in setting up and maintaining workstations, peripherals, and user accounts.
  • Support cloud-based applications and services, with a preference for AWS expertise.
  • Document issues, solutions, and processes in a ticketing system.
  • Collaborate with Tier 2 and IT teams to escalate and resolve complex problems.

  • Scripting or automation knowledge (PowerShell, Bash, Python).
  • Certifications like CompTIA A , AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, or ITIL Foundations

Therefore, you should live within commuting distance of one of our offices in Chicago, Los Angeles, or Boston. Meeting in person strengthens connectivity, productivity, and creativity, making us a better workplace overall and has the added benefit of building bridges

💰 Competitive compensation, including equity in TravelPerk

🌴 Generous vacation days so you can rest and recharge

💊 Comprehensive benefit plans covering medical, dental, vision, and life

About Amtrav:

Working with us isn't likely something you've experienced before. We're laid back and welcoming, with a firm grasp on results-driven work. We don't want to hold your hand or look over your shoulder, but we expect the greatness that we know is in you, and exists in everything we do. That might sound a little dramatic, but we take our work seriously (we just think it doesn't have to always feel so serious).


About TravelPerk:

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Barcelona, we've grown to over 1200 people in 9 offices across Europe and North America. In 2022 we became a 'unicorn' and in 2024 we raised $104 million in additional investment, with a total valuation of $1.4 billion.


We've been winning awards too. Since 2023, we've been voted one of the best places to work, one of the fastest-growing apps and tech companies, and a leading pioneer of business travel. These are just some of the reasons why global brands like Wise, Red Bull, GetYourGuide, and Aesop trust us to supercharge their corporate travel.


We're an equal opportunity employer, meaning you're welcome at AmTrav regardless of your appearance, where you're from, or anything else that makes you you.
