Tomorrow's Talent•Fontana, CA

About The Position

PCtronics is looking for a sharp, curious, and highly organized intern or apprentice who wants real-world exposure to managed IT, cybersecurity, compliance, documentation, and AI driven operations. This is a hands-on learning role built for someone who wants to understand how a modern client environment is onboarded, documented, secured, tracked, and prepared for future automation inside a real managed services business. The apprentice will work closely with leadership to help build and maintain accurate client environments across our internal stack. This includes learning how client data is structured, how systems connect, how assets are documented, how security controls are applied, how backup and recovery readiness are reviewed, and how all of it supports service delivery, compliance, and long term operational intelligence. The first 60 hours will be covered through a grant-funded stipend of $1300, paid upon completion of the 60 hours.

The right person should be comfortable working with technical systems, paying attention to detail, following structure, and asking good questions.
More than anything, this role is for someone who wants to learn how modern IT, security, compliance, and automation actually work together in practice.
