Linux Helpdesk Technician, Lund

Linux Helpdesk Technician, Lund

Job Description

Do you have a genuine interest in Linux and a passion for helping others solve technical challenges? As a Linux Helpdesk Technician at Axis, you'll be a key part of keeping thousands of colleagues productive every day — while growing your skills in an environment that values both service and innovation. Join us at our HQ in Lund!

Who is your future team?

Our IT Helpdesk team provides 1st line support to several thousand colleagues in Sweden, and also acts as 2nd line support for our global Helpdesk contacts. The team consists of 40 dedicated professionals, organized into functional areas covering internal systems and access management, Windows, Linux, Mac, telephony, and conference rooms.

As a Linux Helpdesk Technician, you'll join a tight-knit team of four with joint responsibility for around 2,000 Linux clients. Together, the Helpdesk team strives for one thing above all: outstanding user satisfaction through short response times and a professional, helpful approach.

What you'll do here as Linux Helpdesk Technician

You'll be a vital link in Axis' IT delivery, helping colleagues overcome technical obstacles and keeping their Linux environments running smoothly. Your daily work is characterized by problem-solving and service — and beyond day-to-day support, you'll also have the opportunity to work proactively and contribute to the future of how we support our users.

• Provide support via our ticketing system, telephone, remote tools, and on-site visits

• Install, configure, and deliver Linux clients using Ubuntu and FAI (Fully Automatic Installation), among other tools

• Troubleshoot hardware and software issues in a Linux environment

• Create and maintain technical documentation

• Staff the walk-in service desk approximately half a day per week, assisting colleagues with computers, phones, and equipment

• Identify and resolve issues proactively before they affect users, for example using tools like Ubuntu Landscape

• Contribute to future initiatives involving AI-supported solutions and self-service opportunities for users

Who are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who combines technical knowledge with a genuine desire to help others. You take responsibility for your tasks and act proactively — always looking for ways to improve. With your clear and pedagogical communication style, you can explain technical solutions in a way that makes sense to any audience. You're a collaborative team player who values diverse perspectives, and you're structured enough to drive your own cases forward independently. For us, your willingness to grow and develop in the role is just as important as your professional background.

We'd love to hear that you have:

• Relevant IT education with a focus on Linux

• Experience with client support in a Linux environment

• Experience working with ticketing and case management systems

• Fluent in Swedish and English, both written and spoken

Bonus points if you also bring:

• Familiarity with Ubuntu, FAI or CFEngine

• Working knowledge of ServiceNow

• Experience managing larger initiatives, such as OS rollouts

• Familiarity with Windows, Mac, mobile devices, or conference room technology

• Experience with Ubuntu Landscape

• Working knowledge of Bash and Python
