About the role
First Level Support Engineer
As a First Level Support Engineer, you'll be the first point of contact for around 1,500 developers and business users – the person who keeps things moving when something breaks and makes sure every new colleague hits the ground running. You'll work on-site with a well-staffed, experienced IT team that genuinely invests in each other's growth, with real scope to take on 2nd level responsibilities as you develop. The IT landscape at Neura is varied, modern, and anything but boring – and if Linux or macOS is where you're most at home, you'll fit right in.
Your mission & challenges
- Serve as the first contact for IT issues across our developer and business user community – diagnosing problems quickly and communicating clearly
- Manage the full device lifecycle: procurement, setup, maintenance, and retirement across Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS environments
- Run user onboarding and offboarding end-to-end, making sure every joiner has what they need from day one and every leaver is offboarded securely
- Work on-site with the team, providing hands-on support in a dynamic, multi-system environment
- Collaborate closely with 2nd level colleagues, escalating where needed and picking up more complex topics as you grow into the role
- Manage user identities and access through Microsoft Entra ID and Active Directory – including provisioning, group management, and access reviews
- Track and resolve tickets in Jira, and keep our asset management data accurate and up to date
- Maintain clear documentation of configurations, processes, and recurring issues so the team's knowledge stays shared
What we can look forward to
- Completed IT Ausbildung or equivalent qualification – e.g. Fachinformatiker Systemintegration, IT-Systemelektroniker, or a comparable background
- Solid working knowledge of Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS – confidence across all three matters; strong Linux or macOS skills are a real advantage
- Basic understanding of networking fundamentals – enough to diagnose connectivity issues and know when to escalate; strong network troubleshooting skills are a clear advantage
- A calm, methodical approach to troubleshooting and a genuine interest in getting to the root of a problem
- Clear communication – you can explain technical issues to non-technical users without making them feel talked down to
- Comfort working in a fast-moving environment with a diverse, international team
- English at B2 level or above – our team is international and English is how we work across borders
