- Serve as backup liaison to OIT for server-related issues when the SEVIS Systems and Compliance Manager is unavailable.
This is an opportunity to work alongside colleagues and campus partners, develop your technical and compliance expertise, and contribute to the programs and services that support NC State's international student and scholar community. If you are interested in applying your skills in data analysis, systems support, and regulatory compliance while helping international students and scholars navigate their educational experiences at NC State, we welcome you to apply. |
