What are the responsibilities and job description for the IT Systems & Applications Administrator position at EuropTec?
About The Company
EuropTec USA, LLC is a U.S. glass fabricator with a 75-year history of supplying fabricated glass and specialty items to the appliance market. We were previously known under the names of Marsco Manufacturing and Engineered Glass Products. With the recent acquisition by Glas Trösch Group, we now have the resources to significantly grow both domestically and overseas. Glas Trösch Group is a family-owned glass company based in Switzerland with $2BN in revenue and 6000 employees worldwide. With two manufacturing facilities and a warehouse in the Bridgeport and Canaryville (Back of the Yards Industrial Stockyards) neighborhoods of Chicago, we provide a wide variety of products for the appliance (oven doors and microwave ovens) and lighting markets. We are now poised to leverage our relationship with Glas Trösch to enter the U.S. rail market by providing glass and frame assemblies.
We are looking for a hands-on and versatile IT Systems & Applications Administrator to support operations at EuropTec USA. In this standalone role, you will take ownership of our business-critical applications—especially our ERP system—and act as the local point of contact for all IT infrastructure needs. While the IT organization is decentralized and infrastructure strategy is defined centrally at our headquarters in Switzerland, you will be responsible for ensuring smooth day-to-day IT operations on-site and collaborating closely with the central IT team.
