HaloPSA Specialist - Administrator
Future Opportunity — Not Currently Hiring
Position Overview
NOCDOC is seeking a HaloPSA Specialist/Administrator to own the configuration, administration, optimization, and ongoing health of HaloPSA — the core Professional Services Automation (PSA) platform underpinning ticketing, billing, workflows, and service delivery across the organization. This role is the platform expert and system owner for HaloPSA, similar to how a Salesforce Administrator owns a CRM: responsible not for using the platform to do the work, but for making sure the platform itself is configured correctly, running efficiently, and evolving to meet the organization’s needs.
The HaloPSA Specialist/Administrator manages workflows, ticket templates, SLA configurations, automation rules, custom fields, user roles and permissions, and integrations connecting HaloPSA to other business systems. This role partners closely with Service Desk, NOC, SOC, Billing/Finance, Automation & Integration Engineering, and leadership to ensure HaloPSA supports — rather than constrains — how the organization actually works.
The ideal candidate combines deep platform administration expertise with an understanding of MSP service delivery workflows and is comfortable being the go-to person for “why doesn’t this work the way we expect” questions about the platform that nearly every technical team depends on daily.

- Configure and maintain custom fields, forms, and data structures to support operational and reporting needs

- Ensure access controls align with organizational security requirements and least-privilege principles
- Support onboarding and offboarding of HaloPSA users in coordination with HR and IT & Security Administration

Workflow & Process Optimization
- Partner with Service Desk, NOC, and SOC leadership to understand operational workflows and translate them into effective platform configuration
- Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, eliminate workflow friction, and improve ticket handling efficiency through platform configuration and automation
- Build and maintain automated workflows, triggers, and business process rules within HaloPSA
- Partner with Automation & Integration Engineering (Rewst) on automation initiatives that extend beyond native HaloPSA capabilities
Integrations & Data Management
- Manage and maintain integrations between HaloPSA and other business systems, including RMM platforms, accounting/billing systems (eg, Xero), and CRM (eg, HubSpot)
- Troubleshoot integration issues and data synchronization problems between HaloPSA and connected systems

Platform Governance, Training & Support
- Serve as the primary internal point of expertise for HaloPSA configuration, capabilities, and best practices
- Develop and maintain documentation, training materials, and standard operating procedures for HaloPSA use
- Train new users and reinforce platform best practices across technical teams
- Evaluate new HaloPSA features, modules, and releases, and assess their applicability to organizational needs
- Manage the relationship with HaloPSA support/vendor resources for platform issues, feature requests, and licensing
