<p>Do you mean the person who provides assistance for others on computer-related things? I think it could simply be called <strong>技术支持人员</strong>. But the problem with this translation is that 技术支持 is a little general rather than focusing on computer. In some companies people may say <strong>IT 人员</strong>.</p>

You are right. It is like calling the person who provides computer related technical support 'computer guy' in English

The more professional term for a person who provides computer related technical support should be '[Computer Support Specialist](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=14&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjA_N2bs7nSAhXm1IMKHbyZCGIQFghWMA0&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebalance.com%2Fcomputer-support-specialist-526075&usg=AFQjCNEdc70XJjCAuixsgjsz_l5tfFqR3g&sig2=XPW3PDq7rDPUIeZJ-ccWiw)'

电脑支援专家 or 电脑技术支援专家 (Computer Technical Support Specialist)

\*电脑技术支援专家 may be too long a title. We can shorten it to just '电脑技术支援' as the job title. It is perfectly normal in the business world to shorten overly long titles for efficiency. (*NASA personnel would call the Flight Director just 'Flight' during launch.*)

\*支援(support/assist) is better choice than 支持(support/ endorse)
