IT guy
Office computer helper
An IT guy is someone who handles technology problems in a workplace—fixing computers, troubleshooting software, resetting passwords, managing networks.
The term is casual and gendered, though it often applies regardless of the person's actual gender: I called the IT guy about my frozen screen.
The role ranges from informal tech-savvy coworker to dedicated support staff.
