Job Story:
We are looking for a versatile specialist who can flex between hands-on troubleshooting, behind-the-scenes configuration, and supportive team collaboration like a seasoned pro. Do you thrive in environments where the network never sleeps and neither does your curiosity? If someone asked your work style, you’d say “Think Mandalorian meets Matrix operator — calm, resourceful, adaptable. This is the way.” If you’re someone who likes your work like your Wi-Fi — fast, reliable, and always on — keep reading.
We need a kind of person who can be:
Independent Operator — 60–70% of your day is self-directed and you love it
Team Conduit — you offer help as fast as you ask for it
Mode-Switch Master — lead or backup, whatever the project calls for
Doc Ninja — document solutions & build SOPs that future teammates will thank you for
Communication Router — meet users at any knowledge level, bringing clarity to their world
Cool Under Latency — things glitch? You don’t; you pivot with it & keep things moving
Self-Starter with Initiative — you don’t wait for tasks; you queue them up
Support and maintain campus telecom and network systems. Troubleshoot issues with the calm confidence — you’ve rebooted entire situations, so you got this. Document everything from work orders to new SOPs (because if it’s not documented, did it even happen?). Collaborate with a tight-knit tech crew while still owning your workload and making independent decisions. Occasionally work a flexible modified or non-traditional schedule — Infrastructure upgrades occur in the maintenance window, typically post-business hours for optimal uptime. Participate in an On-Call Trouble Tech rotation - tech emergencies don’t punch a clock.

About the Climate Pollution Reduction Program
The Climate Pollution Reduction Program's (CPRP's) mission is to implement policies and programs to reduce carbon emissions in the state of Washington so that the state meets its statutory greenhouse gas emission limits. The CPRP focuses long term, requiring creative and strategic decision making for implementation to achieve broad statewide and interstate success reducing carbon emissions in the state of Washington so residents have a healthy environment and climate.
Since November 2019, Washington has been transitioning away from using potent greenhouse gases known as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in products and equipment. These “super pollutant” greenhouse gases can be thousands of times more powerful than carbon dioxide. They're commonly used in air conditioning and refrigeration, in producing insulating foams, and as propellants.
Launched in 2024, the Refrigerant Management Program (RMP) requires facilities with refrigeration and air conditioning systems containing more than 50 pounds of certain refrigerants to conduct periodic leak inspections, promptly repair leaks, and maintain records. The rule also requires service practices intended to minimize refrigerant emissions. The RMP is designed to reduce emissions of climate-polluting refrigerants from leaky refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
