IT Support Technician

Position available in Baltic, SD (On-Site) 
Full-Time | Monday – Friday 8:00 AM – 5:00PM

Read This Part First

This job is on-site at our corporate office — 47504 252nd Street, Baltic, SD 57003 — about 15 minutes north of Sioux Falls. It is not remote, not hybrid, not remote-friendly. Drop the address into your maps app before you apply, and make sure the drive works for you five days a week.

It also involves regular travel to our other locations. Some weeks you’ll spend real time in a vehicle, not at a desk.

Most of the work happens between 8 and 5. Occasionally you’ll be here in the evening for an upgrade or a cutover, and things get busier during planting and harvest — when a grower’s season is on the line, a down system can’t wait until Monday.

If all of that sounds fine, keep reading.

The Job

Hefty Seed works with 52 dealer store locations across the region — and we’re still growing. You’d be one of three people keeping IT running for all of it.

Everyone here depends on systems working: agronomists in the field, sales, the people behind the counter at our stores, and the office staff in Baltic. When something breaks, they call you.

What you’ll actually do:

  • Answer the phone when someone’s laptop, printer, or login isn’t cooperating — and stay with them until it’s actually fixed
  • Set up, image, and deploy Windows PCs; manage users, groups, and permissions in Active Directory and Microsoft 365
  • Configure and troubleshoot network equipment — switches, firewalls, and Wi-Fi across our sites
  • Keep servers patched, and keep backups running and verified
  • Support the line-of-business software our teams live in every day — agronomy software, point of sale, and ERP
  • Log your work in our ticketing system so nothing gets dropped
  • Travel to our other locations to install equipment, fix what can’t be fixed over the phone, and check in on the people there
  • Teach people. A real share of this job is showing someone how to do the thing instead of just doing it for them.

What We’re Looking For

We’d rather be direct about this than waste your time or ours.

The things that actually matter:

  • Communication skills. This one is non-negotiable. You can stay calm and clear with someone who is frustrated, in a hurry, and not technical — on the phone, in person, and in writing. You explain what went wrong in plain language instead of jargon, and you follow up. Strong technical skills paired with poor communication will not work in this role, and we would rather say that now than after the interview.
  • You’ve fixed real machines. Not read about it — done it. Be ready to walk us through a problem you actually solved.
  • Working knowledge of Windows, Microsoft 365, and Active Directory. You can create a user, sort out a mapped drive, reset access, and explain in plain English what group policy does.

  • Networking you can explain out loud. What a switch does. What DNS is. How you’d go about figuring out why one office lost its internet connection.

  • A valid driver’s license and genuine willingness to travel to our locations, a clean driving record and the ability to obtain a DOT medical card.
  • You live within a reasonable commute of Baltic, or you’re moving here before you start.

Helps, but we won’t rule you out without it:

  • CompTIA A+, Network+, or Microsoft certifications

  • A background in agriculture — or you just grew up around it
  • Power BI or CAD experience — both come up here, and either one is a real plus
  • You’re the person your family calls when their computer breaks. That instinct is worth more here than a line on a resume.

On experience level: we’re genuinely open. If you’ve got a couple of years of help desk under your belt and a good head on your shoulders, we’ll teach you the rest — the network side, the server side, our software. What we can’t teach is patience with people and the willingness to keep digging until something works.

Pay and Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance

  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off and paid holidays
  • Yearly bonuses

Why Work Here

We’re a small IT team, which means no layers of bureaucracy between you and getting something fixed. It also means your work is visible — you’ll know exactly which problems you solved and who you solved them for.

We’re also growing. This means the systems you build and support keep getting bigger, and there’s room here for someone who wants to grow with that instead of doing the same ticket queue for ten years.

And the work matters beyond the ticket queue. Hefty Seed is here to help family farms thrive. Keeping the systems running is part of how that happens.

How to Apply

Apply through Indeed with your resume. Instead of a cover letter, tell us in a few sentences about a technical problem you solved for someone who wasn’t technical — what was broken, and how you explained it to them.
