Cohesity is on a mission to radically simplify how organizations secure and manage their data, while unlocking limitless value. As a leader in data security and management, we make it easy to secure, protect, manage and derive value from data—across the data center, edge, and cloud. At Cohesity, we're a group of builders and go-getters who are committed to doing the right thing. We encourage you to come as you are, as our differences make us stronger.

We’ve been named a Leader by multiple analyst firms and are prominently featured in the Forbes Cloud 100 and CRN’s Coolest Cloud companies.

Join us and we'll lead the way together.


As an IT Support Engineer, you’ll be responsible for many operational and project-based tasks, such as supporting SasS-based applications, remote troubleshooting, new hire onboarding, and office conferencing systems. You will also help maintain the company's IT network, servers and security systems. This role is essential within any organization to ensure business continuity. If an IT system fails, the impact on the day-to-day running of the business can be significant, sometimes catastrophic.

To ensure this doesn’t happen, you'll be responsible for investigating and diagnosing network problems, collecting IT usage stats, making recommendations for improving the company's IT systems and carrying out routine configuration and installation of IT solutions. You will report and work closely with the Cohesity IT Team in the USA Headquarters to help the company succeed globally.
