Your purpose at Kertos

You’ll be an essential part of our internal IT team and ensure that everyone at Kertos can work smoothly. Our team is growing rapidly—new employees, new tools, new devices—and you’ll keep everything organized. You’ll be the first point of contact when something isn’t working, and you’ll actively help ensure that our IT infrastructure scales with us. If you’re interested in cybersecurity, you’ll also have the opportunity to learn about topics like MDM and endpoint security and take on responsibility in those areas.

• Internal IT Support: You’ll handle requests from the team—from software issues to laptop-related problems—and ensure that no one has to wait long for a solution.
• Device Management: You’ll set up new laptops, maintain our MDM system, and keep track of hardware and access rights across the entire team.
• Software Access & Accounts: You’ll manage tool access, create new accounts, and properly remove them during offboarding.
• IT Administration: You’ll keep our IT processes organized and well-documented, so we can maintain a clear overview even as we continue to grow.
• Cybersecurity: If you’re interested, you’ll actively contribute to areas such as MDM configuration or our endpoint security setup with CrowdStrike.
  
  

The Skills, Motivation, And Mentality You Should Bring

• You’re available for a long-term position as a working student and can commit to 15–20 hours per week with us.
• You’re familiar with common operating systems, software installations, and basic networking technology.
• You can independently prioritize multiple concurrent requests, remain reliable, and find pragmatic solutions.
• You have an affinity for startups, enjoy pitching in, and communicate openly; German language skills are a plus, but not required.
  
  

Ideally, you also bring the following:

• You’re interested in cybersecurity and would like to learn about topics such as MDM configuration or endpoint security (e.g., CrowdStrike).
• You have already worked with ticketing systems, MDM solutions, or similar IT tools.
