What are the responsibilities and job description for the IT Specialist position at Tennr?
Company Description
Today, when you go to your doctor and get referred to a specialist (e.g., for sleep apnea), your doctor sends out a referral and tells you, “They’ll be in touch soon.” So you wait. And wait. Sometimes days, weeks, or even months. Why? Because too often specialists and medical services are overwhelmed with referrals and the painstakingly manual process it takes to qualify your referral prevents them from getting around to it on time, or sometimes at all. Tennr prevents these delays and denials by making sure every referral gets where it needs to go, with the right info, at the right time. Powered by RaeLM™ Tennr reads, extracts, and acts on every piece of patient information so providers can capture more referrals, slash denials, and reduce delays.
Role Description
The IT Support Specialist ensures Tennr runs smoothly behind the scenes—keeping our team connected, secure, and equipped to do their best work. This is a hands-on, generalist role responsible for IT onboarding and offboarding, hardware and software support, and internal tool administration. You’ll manage day-to-day IT operations and play a key role in implementing new tools and lightweight automations. You will be the first line of defense for internal tech issues and will help scale our IT systems as the company grows.
This role is ideal for someone who is detail-oriented, enjoys solving tech puzzles, and is excited by the challenge of supporting a high-performing team in a fast-paced environment.
