• CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) (preferred but not required)

TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE

• Previous experience in desktop support, technical support, or helpdesk environments, with the ability to translate remote support skills into onsite execution.
• Experience with Layer 1 infrastructure, including structured cabling (Cat5e/Cat6), cable remediation, patch panels, and rack & stack.
• Working knowledge of Cisco, Fortinet, Ubiquiti and Arista ecosystems.
• Hands-on experience deploying, configuring and supporting:
• Network appliances
• Access control systems
• IP-based telephony
• NAS and related infrastructure

CORE COMPETENCIES

• Strong communication skills with the ability to support technical and non-technical stakeholders (including executives).
• Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel as required.
• Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment with minimal supervision.
• Comfortable performing physically demanding work, including lifting 40+ lbs, working at heights, climbing ladders, and safely operating access equipment such as step ladders, extension ladders, scissor lifts, and boom lifts in varied field environments.
• Willingness and ability to travel 100% of the time, including short-notice trips, out-of-state assignments, evenings, weekends, and statutory holidays as needed.

HOW WE WORK

• Direct access to leadership – You’ll work closely with senior leadership and project teams on execution and delivery.
• Accountability over activity – Success is measured by execution quality, reliability, and client experience.
