IT Intern

Description:

We're looking for an IT Intern to give undergraduate students in technology-related programs a real foothold in the industry — not just exposure, but actual ownership of work that matters. This isn't a shadow-and-observe internship. You'll be embedded in Kin's IT department at our Chicago office, doing the hands-on work that keeps a fast-growing insurtech company running.

From imaging laptops and managing device inventory to triaging helpdesk requests and supporting employee onboarding and offboarding, you'll touch the full operational reality of IT at a tech company. By the time you leave, you'll have experience you can speak to concretely — because you did it, not watched it.

Your Responsibilities
 

• Image and deploy computers for Kin's local and remote workforce
• Participate in tier-1 helpdesk requests, resolving employee issues with speed and care
• Execute onboarding and offboarding logistics for employees as it relates to IT equipment
• Manage and audit physical IT asset inventory (laptops, monitors, mobile devices) weekly
• Oversee mobile device management across the organization via JumpCloud
• Provide audio/visual support for in-office meetings and events
• Triage cybersecurity issues and enforce security policies in coordination with Kinfosec
• Maintain physical security infrastructure at office locations, including cameras and keycard readers
