A Virtual Government job refers to a position within a government agency or department that is performed remotely, typically from home or another off-site location. These roles can include administrative support, policy analysis, IT services, customer service, and more, all conducted using digital communication tools. Virtual Government jobs allow employees to serve public needs while enjoying the flexibility of remote work.

Proficiency with office software suites, secure communication platforms, and document management systems is typically required. Excellent communication, discretion, and time management skills help individuals excel in coordinating tasks and maintaining confidentiality. These abilities ensure efficient support, accurate record-keeping, and secure handling of sensitive information vital for government operations.

How do virtual government employees typically collaborate with other departments while working remotely?

Virtual Government employees often rely on secure communication platforms, such as video conferencing and project management tools, to coordinate with colleagues across different agencies and departments. Regular virtual meetings, shared digital workspaces, and clear documentation practices are essential for staying aligned on projects and ensuring transparency. Building strong digital communication skills and maintaining proactive outreach to stakeholders helps overcome the challenges of remote collaboration. This approach fosters teamwork and ensures that projects move forward efficiently, even when team members are distributed.

Job Description

TENAX Technologies is seeking a Systems Administrator to support the Air National Guard (ANG) Remotely Piloted Aircraft Special Operations Center (RPA-SOC).

This is a hands-on technical position supporting mission-critical IT infrastructure used in 24/7/365 RPA operations. The Systems Administrator will work with physical and virtual servers, VMware, Active Directory, enterprise storage, Windows systems, backups, patching, cybersecurity requirements, and specialized mission systems in a secure environment.

This position is ideal for a cleared IT professional who enjoys troubleshooting complex systems, working directly with customers and technical teams, and taking ownership of issues from identification through resolution.

Salary Range: $70,000-$85,000 per year

Starting salary is based on experience, certifications, technical background, and overall qualifications. Most qualified candidates can expect a starting salary between $70,000 and $80,000, with compensation toward the upper end of the range available for candidates with advanced certifications, extensive experience, or highly relevant technical expertise.

Key Responsibilities

  • Administer and maintain Windows servers, workstations, virtual machines, storage systems, and software supporting RPA operations.
  • Perform Active Directory administration, including user accounts, permissions, Group Policy, and related Windows services.
  • Administer and troubleshoot VMware virtualized environments, including ESXi, vCenter, and virtual servers.
  • Maintain SAN/storage, backups, data retention, and system recovery capabilities.

  • Troubleshoot Dell and other commercial server, workstation, and storage hardware.
  • Support specialized video encoding, decoding, recording, and communications systems.
  • Configure and maintain systems to meet security baselines and operational requirements.

  • Working knowledge of computer networking and network-connected systems.
  • Understanding of cybersecurity practices and maintaining secure IT environments.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a technical team.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with technical personnel, users, military leadership, and Government customers.

Clearance & Certification Requirements

Candidates must meet both requirements to be considered:

  • Active Top Secret (TS) security clearance with eligibility for TS/SCI access.
