V-ETS

Salary: $70-$95K

Position Overview

The Senior IT Consultant at Eminent Technical Solutions (ETS) is a highly skilled technical professional responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining the network and systems infrastructure that our clients depend on. This role sits at the core of ETS's technical delivery, taking complex infrastructure challenges from concept through completion and ensuring that client environments are secure, stable, and built to scale.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who thrives on solving hard problems independently. The Senior IT Consultant is expected to own projects from scoping through deployment, make sound architectural decisions without needing constant direction, and bring a proactive mindset to security, performance, and reliability.

While the primary focus is technical delivery, this role also requires strong client communication skills. You will work directly with clients to understand their environments, explain your recommendations clearly, and build the kind of trust that makes ETS a long-term partner rather than a vendor. You will also contribute to the broader team by mentoring junior technicians and producing documentation that supports the entire organization.

The Senior IT Consultant is a key part of how ETS delivers on its commitment to solving complex technology challenges the right way the first time.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain secure and scalable network and systems infrastructure across client environments.
• Configure and troubleshoot routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless access points to ensure reliable, high-performance connectivity.
• Administer virtual environments and physical servers, including VMware and Hyper-V platforms.
• Implement and monitor cybersecurity protections including firewalls, antivirus, endpoint management, and threat detection systems.
• Manage disaster recovery operations and data backup systems, ensuring clients are prepared for failure scenarios.
• Perform systems monitoring, diagnostics, and proactive maintenance to identify and resolve issues before they affect clients.
• Lead client consultations to assess technical needs, present solutions, and guide environments through changes and upgrades.
• Produce network documentation including system diagrams, deployment plans, and project update reports.
• Mentor junior technicians and contribute to the technical development of the broader team.
• Collaborate with the Help Desk Manager and support team on escalated issues that cross infrastructure boundaries.
