  • Configure system settings, user permissions, and device integrations within security platforms.
  • Monitor automated data exchanges related to badging, access provisioning, and system interfaces.
  • Perform system testing, upgrades, patches, and routine maintenance of electronic security technologies.
  • Generate system reports, audits, and operational metrics to ensure system performance and accuracy.
  • Troubleshoot system issues and coordinate service restoration with IT teams and external vendors.
  • Support system installations, expansions, and upgrades across University Health facilities.
  • Participate in incident, problem, and change management processes.
  • Provide after-hours and on-call support for critical security systems as required.

  • Infant/Pediatric Protection Systems
  • Windows Server environments
  • VMware vSphere virtual environments
  • Cisco UCS or Dell server hardware
  • Networking fundamentals (DNS, DHCP, IP addressing)

Education & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Management Information Systems, Healthcare Technology, or related field required.

Relevant experience may substitute for education requirements. Experience supporting enterprise physical security systems, healthcare environments, or complex IT infrastructure is preferred.

Candidates must have the ability to obtain vendor certifications such as CCure 9000, Zenitel Stentofon, CenTrak, DSC, and HID SAFE.

Work Environment

Work occurs in hospital facilities, technical environments, and data centers across University Health locations. Travel between facilities may be required. This role participates in a 24/7 on-call rotation supporting critical facility security systems.
