Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a TS Network Administrator to sit in Arlington, VA. This is an opportunity to join a highly technical team that values strong networking fundamentals and advanced troubleshooting skills over product-specific experience.

This is not a traditional ticket-escalation NOC position. The team is looking for individuals who understand network architecture, can think critically through problems, and are comfortable working in a highly customized environment. While Palo Alto firewalls are utilized, the team is willing to train candidates who possess strong networking expertise and a proven ability to learn new technologies quickly.
