Job Description

At CITIG, we believe in the power of technology and are passionate about delivering an exceptional customer experience to our clients through great communication, customized technology solutions, and stellar support. Our employees are enthusiastic about technology and love to tackle complex challenges!

We have a fun, open layout, industrial office in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara, one block off State Street and less than a 10 minute walk to the beach. We understand the necessity of a good work/life balance and encourage our employees to stay active, both mentally and physically. Regular team outings, monthly BBQs, and a complimentary gym membership are just a few of the many benefits we offer. The work atmosphere is a perfect blend of casual, flexible, collaborative, and fun. We take a service leadership approach to management.

We are currently seeking an experienced IT Project Engineer.

You should truly enjoy what you do and genuinely enjoy working with clients and your team members.
