JOB DESCRIPTION:
The Senior Consulting Engineer is a billable consulting engineering role responsible for designing, building, and supporting production network and security infrastructure for enterprise clients. This is not a pre-sales or Sales Engineer role. Success is measured by delivery quality, utilization, and client outcomes-not by sales support, revenue targets, or deal closure.
This is a hands-on professional services position that requires deep technical expertise, strong ownership, and the ability to lead customers through complex implementations from design through production support. Ideal candidates thrive in real-world engineering scenarios where architectures must be built, integrated, tested, and supported in production environments.
This role works closely with customers, internal engineering teams, and sales stakeholders, consistently representing SynerComm's brand through professionalism, technical excellence, and a solution-oriented mindset.
