WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR 🌟

We are looking for an energetic and hands-on IT Helpdesk Specialist to join our Barcelona team and become the go-to IT presence at our largest and most dynamic office.

Barcelona is Manychat's primary hub - 143 employees, a packed events calendar, and a second-floor office expansion in progress. You'll work side-by-side with our Barcelona IT Specialist, who will onboard you, and together you'll own the full spectrum of onsite IT support: from daily helpdesk to equipment setup, event AV, and hardware lifecycle.

This is a role with real operational ownership from day one. If you want a job where no two days look the same, where you're trusted to own things - not just close tickets - and where you'll make a visible impact at the heart of a global tech company, this is it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO 🚀

Onsite Support & Daily Helpdesk

• Be the first point of contact for IT requests from Barcelona employees via Slack, walk-up, and our service desk (Freshservice)
• Troubleshoot hardware, software, and connectivity issues on macOS devices (Jamf-managed fleet) and peripherals
• Handle account access requests, password resets, MFA re-enrollment, and app access through Okta and Google Workspace
• Escalate complex issues to our IT Administrators and IT Team Lead with full context and logs

Onboarding & Offboarding

• Prepare and issue laptops, peripherals, and accessories to new hires; handle all day-1 account setup
• Collect and process returned equipment from leavers; update asset inventory in AssetSonar
• Coordinate with HR and Talent for upcoming joiners; manage hardware delivery SLAs
• Coach new employees on tools, device setup, and company IT processes

AV & Events Support

• Set up and support AV equipment for internal events, All-Hands meetings, workshops, and external meetups hosted in our Barcelona office. Some of them may take place late.
• Ensure meeting rooms are ready daily: displays, cameras, microphones, Zoom Rooms, cables
• Troubleshoot AV issues in real time during events; coordinate with vendors for hardware-level repairs
• Help plan and execute the AV setup for the Barcelona office expansion

Asset Management & Procurement

• Maintain accurate asset inventory for the Barcelona office (hardware, peripherals, consumables)
• Coordinate local hardware procurement: gather quotes, place orders with vendors, track deliveries
• Manage the loaner pool, consumables, and device rotation to avoid aging stock
• Support hardware refresh cycles and decommissioning workflows

Office Infrastructure

• Assist with Wi-Fi, wired connectivity, and printer troubleshooting at the office level
• Support the Barcelona buildout: coordinate with vendors and building management on IT infrastructure requirements (cabling, network points, AV installation)
• Help implement improvements to meeting room setup and network reliability

Documentation & Knowledge

• Maintain IT knowledge base articles, quick guides, and FAQs for Barcelona employees
• Document solutions to recurring issues and contribute runbooks for the IT team
• Share feedback with IT Administrators on gaps in current processes and tooling

TO SHINE IN THIS ROLE 💥

Must haves:

• 3+ years of IT support experience in a SaaS or technology company - you've supported real users at scale, handled the full helpdesk lifecycle, and know what good IT operations looks like
• macOS and Jamf experience: comfortable enrolling devices, pushing profiles, troubleshooting macOS issues; this is a Mac-first environment
• Hands-on AV and events support: you've set up and operated AV equipment for corporate events - displays, cameras, microphones, conferencing systems; you stay calm when things break in front of 100 people
• Onboarding/offboarding process experience: you know what "day 1 ready" means and how to deliver it reliably

Technical Skills

• Google Workspace: user management, basic admin tasks (groups, shared drives, delegation)
• Okta basics: password resets, MFA, app assignment - or strong readiness to learn quickly
• Service desk tools: experience working in a ticketing system (any platform - Freshservice, Zendesk, Jira, YouTrack) and keeping queues organized
• AI-Powered Productivity: you actively use modern LLM tools (Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini) in your daily work - for writing, troubleshooting research, drafting documentation, automating workflows or finding faster solutions; this is a hard requirement
• Asset tracking: comfortable maintaining hardware records, updating inventory systems

Soft Skills & Approach

• Proactive, not reactive: you spot problems before they become tickets and fix things without being asked
• Clear communicator: you write concise, helpful responses and can explain technical issues to non-technical users without jargon
• Calm under pressure: you perform well during onboardings, live events, and multi-issue days without dropping the ball
• Team player: you ask for help when you need it, share what you know, and make the people around you more effective

Language & Location

• Proficiency in English (working language for documentation, vendor communication, and team collaboration)
• Barcelona-based with willingness to work onsite 4-5 days per week - this is a primarily onsite role

Nice to haves:

• Freshservice experience - workflow configuration, SLA setup, reporting (we're migrating to Freshservice in 2026; if you already know it, you'll contribute immediately)
• Zoom Rooms setup and administration: controller pairing, display/camera/audio configuration, room kit deployment and troubleshooting (Barcelona is expanding its event space - this will matter)
• IT hardware procurement basics: gathering vendor quotes, coordinating purchases, tracking orders - useful as Barcelona's largest office and with our IT Procurement role currently paused
• Light scripting or automation exposure: basic Python or bash, or experience with low-code tools (n8n, Zapier) - our team builds automations to reduce manual work, and we'd love someone who's curious about this
• Networking basics: Wi-Fi diagnostics, VLAN concepts, UniFi familiarity - helpful for supporting our Ubiquiti network stack
• Proficiency in Spanish: useful for coordinating with local vendors, building management, and ISPs in Barcelona
• Slack administration basics: workspace settings, app management, user permissions

🏢 LOCATION & SCHEDULE

Full-time, on-site 4-5 days per week in Barcelona; occasional after-hours support for events or cutovers.
