I'm arranging my resume so skills that belong together fall under the same heading. For example
Development
- created easy to navigate websites using jQuery UI
- carefully wrote test cases for each functional unit
- etc.
What do you call the position who does IT related work? In these positions I often supported the developers and worked lots with VMware. Also various miscellaneous problems with various programs (such as end users firewall not turning on) was another of my responsibilities.
IT
- managed virtual provisioning using vSphere client
- fixed problems with various end user programs, such as firewalls
- configured RAID for an optimal balance between speed and redundancy
- etc.
having the heading "IT" looks silly here, what is another name? I don't think dev ops is quit the right fit.

"System Engineer" is fairly common (for example, an MCSE is a Microsoft Certified System Engineer), although the RAID config job falls in this category and not in that of a developer. ("Network Engineer" is another term.) A developer develops applications, a system engineer keeps the hardware and software that run the applications in working order. IT encompasses both roles.

Have you tried one of the following terms?
Technical Support: "Under general supervision, in a 24/7 in-bound call center environment, Technical Support Representatives will provide technical and network problem resolution to end-users (customers) by performing a question diagnosis while guiding users through step-by-step solutions. Solutions include, but are not limited to, resolving username and password problems, uninstalling/reinstalling basic software applications, verifying proper hardware and software set up, power cycling equipment, assisting with navigating around application menus and troubleshooting email issues."
Help Desk: "Responsible for providing technical assistance and support related to computer systems, hardware, or software. Responds to queries, runs diagnostic programs, isolates problem, and determines and implements solution."
Back-end Developer: "A back-end developer is a type of computer programmer who creates the logical back-end and core computational logic of a website, software or information system. The developer create components and features that are indirectly accessed by a user through a front-end application or system."
I hope this helps!

To be 100% honest, technically I bet "Help Desk" and "Tech Support" have definitions that fit the bill, but it's been my observation people look down on those titles and they are generally considered less advance than someone who's used VMware with clusters in large data centers etc.
