This is the advanced paraprofessional and technical class in the Information Systems Series within the Yosemite Community College District (YCCD). Incumbents in this class perform the full range of specialized technical duties related to troubleshooting, installing, configuring, and maintaining desktop computer, peripheral, server, and other network system hardware and software. Incumbents utilize specialized knowledge of information technology to make decisions and complete assignments.

Incumbents frequently interact with users in the course of their duties, providing advanced technical support in resolving equipment and system access problems. Incumbents also perform a wide range of duties related to computer installations, upgrades, maintenance and repairs and often have independent responsibility for overseeing, maintaining and monitoring computer laboratory systems.

This class may be distinguished from the lower‑level Information Systems Technician class because those classes perform journey level technical duties that emphasize system assembly, installation, configuration, maintenance and repair rather than advanced user support. This class may also be distinguished from higher‑level Information Technology classes because incumbents in those classes preponderantly perform professional analytical duties that include system design, development, maintenance and programming.

Incumbents in this class work under the direction of a manager or senior manager, receiving occasional supervision while working toward a definite objective that requires use of a wide range of procedures. Incumbents plan and/or determine specific procedures or equipment required to meet assigned objectives and solve non‑routine problems, referring only unusual matters to a supervisor.

An incumbent in this class does not directly lead or supervise other full‑time employees, but may assign, direct and/or monitor the work of subordinate full time, part time, and/or student employees on a project or assignment basis.

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The knowledge and ability requirements are representative of essential duties. Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the position.
