Position Summary

We are seeking a motivated and experienced Network & Systems Administrator to join our growing team. You will manage, maintain, troubleshoot, and support client and internal network infrastructure, servers, virtualization platforms, cloud services, and security technologies.

This role suits a hands-on professional who enjoys solving problems across a variety of technologies and supporting multiple client environments. You will work both remotely and on-site, take ownership of technical issues end to end, and communicate directly with clients — often people who are not technical and need a clear explanation rather than a jargon-heavy one.

•       Valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and willingness to travel to client sites.

Preferred Qualifications

•       Experience with virtualization technologies such as VMware or Hyper-V.

•       Working knowledge of Azure and other cloud-based systems and services.
