About UZURV
At UZURV, we believe that everyone has the right to get to the places they need and want to go, including work, school, shopping, connecting with friends and family, attending worship services, or just a night out. Many people are able to drive, take public transit, or use a rideshare or taxicab, but about 25% of Americans (and especially older adults and people with disabilities) need assistance for getting out and about. We call it assisted mobility, and that’s what UZURV exists to deliver.
UZURV is a high-growth company that utilizes a technology platform to connect drivers, operating their own vehicles and providers operating wheelchair-accessible vehicles, with older adults and people with disabilities who need assisted mobility in order to get out and about within their communities. Since our founding in Richmond, VA, in 2017, we have grown into a leading national assisted mobility provider by partnering with public transit agencies. Today, we are operating in more than thirty communities across eighteen states and the District of Columbia, and in half of the twenty largest transit agencies in the country. Better still, we are helping meet the transportation needs of millions of riders each year. And it’s not by accident. UZURV has grown, because of the quality of our service. Riders, drivers, and employees give us high marks for our organizational culture, and for the quality and timeliness of our service. Additionally, our state-of-the-art technology enables us to provide an exceptional product at a cost significantly lower than the costs that our clients typically pay for the types of transportation services that we provide.

Senior IT Support Specialist Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a senior it support specialist in Virginia?
Most Virginia employers require a bachelor's degree in information technology, computer science, or a related field, though an associate degree combined with substantial experience is widely accepted. Virginia has no state-issued license specific to IT support, but CompTIA certifications such as A+, Network+, and Security+ are treated as de facto requirements, particularly for roles with federal contractors. Candidates typically advance from helpdesk or desktop support roles after building hands-on experience with enterprise environments.
Which companies hire senior it support specialists in Virginia?
Virginia senior it support specialist roles are posted by SAIC, BMZ, and KBR and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Northern Virginia's dense concentration of federal agencies and prime contractors makes the state one of the most consistent markets in the country for experienced IT support professionals.
Which Virginia cities have the most senior it support specialist jobs?
Arlington, Chantilly, and Virginia Beach lead Virginia for senior it support specialist openings. Northern Virginia cities like Arlington and McLean dominate because of the high density of federal agencies and defense contractors headquartered there, while Richmond draws openings from state government and financial services employers, and Virginia Beach reflects steady demand from military installations and regional managed service providers.
Are there remote senior it support specialist jobs in Virginia?
Yes, but they are less common than in purely analytical or development roles because senior IT support often requires on-site hardware work, data center access, or in-person escalation support. About 33% of senior it support specialist openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, with remote work most common for roles focused on remote desktop administration, cloud platform management, or Tier 2 and Tier 3 software troubleshooting.
How can I get hired as a senior it support specialist in Virginia with little or no experience?
The most realistic path is starting as a helpdesk technician or desktop support analyst at a Virginia-based managed service provider or federal contractor, then moving into senior roles after demonstrating escalation skills. Large Virginia employers such as Leidos and Booz Allen Hamilton run associate and entry-level IT programs for candidates with CompTIA A+ or Network+ credentials. Earning Security+ early is especially valuable in Virginia because it opens doors to federal-contractor environments that represent a large share of the local market.
