Technical Support Associate - Internship

Diverse Computing, Inc. has an immediate opening for a highly-motivated Technical Support Associate. Ideally, this internship would carry over for a minimum of 2 consecutive semesters, and has the option of being fully-remote or hybrid (if local to Tallahassee; EST hours are required if not local). The ideal candidate will be as proud as we are to have the privilege of delivering unmatched support and user-friendly software for those who protect and serve the public. Our clients and fellow employees are fully engaged in being an integral part of solution-oriented development and improvement of public safety software that agencies throughout the United States rely on. Our unwavering customer service and technical support is one of the main reasons for our continued business success.

The focus of this internship is to work closely with our clients to fully understand and support their business processes and technical needs as it pertains to our products. This role is ideal for someone who has a passion for helping others and interest in continuous learning. At Diverse Computing, we believe in helping our young talent gain real-world experience during their internships, so this should be viewed more as a part-time job. This means that the work you’ll do here will directly benefit our products and clients. If you’re a hard worker who is ready for a challenge, this could be for you!

 

Get to know us a little.

At Diverse Computing, we are passionate about making a difference. Our mission: Deliver innovative solutions that improve the effectiveness and security of the public safety community. In other words, we create software that has a higher purpose than simply making a profit. Imagine working for a company where you can take ownership of your projects, be an integral part of team-oriented innovation, and play a pivotal role with software that is designed to improve public safety. At Diverse Computing, these aren't just catch phrases... they are part of our everyday reality, and yes, we're proud of it!
