Job Description
Description
Location: Onsite 5 days/week in St. Louis, MO until training is complete, then hybrid work model
Job type: Contract-to-hire
Company : The name of our partner organization will be disclosed during the interview process. This is not a direct role with LaunchCode; it is a position through LaunchCode, working with one of our partner companies.
Disclaimer: We are unable to provide work sponsorship for this role. We are unable to consider candidates for this role who have a current or future work sponsorship need (this includes those holding extended OPT Visas).
Job Description
We are hiring an IT & Cloud Support Analyst I for an AI Reliability team to support our US government customers and drive reliability through processes and systems that ultimately deliver stability to our platforms. You'll join a creative, fast-moving, solutions-oriented group that supports this mission across products and infrastructure.
Leveraging Jira, AWS, Azure, and internal purpose-built tools, you'll provide IT support by serving as the primary point of contact for end-user issues, diagnosing infrastructure or application problems, managing user access, and tracking support tickets through resolution. The ideal candidate pairs a curious mind with a drive to understand complex problems, a passion for clear documentation, and a genuine desire to make people happy, while protecting operational integrity in a fast-paced, high-security environment.
A candidate new to the entire technology stack is estimated to require approximately 50-70 hours of training (4-6 weeks of paid training, part-time). However, someone missing only one or two components could be ready in just a few days.
LaunchCode leverages a combination of staff expertise and industry-leading learning platforms (e.g., Pluralsight, GitLab University) to tailor training to each candidate's individual skill gaps.
