Do Work That Actually Matters—and Get Better Every Year
At AllConnected, we support organizations that can’t afford failure—cities, infrastructure providers, and growing businesses that depend on stable, secure IT environments.
This isn’t a Tier 1 role.
This is for engineers who already know how to troubleshoot—and want to level up into higher-impact infrastructure work.

We’re looking for a high-performing L2 engineer who:
•Takes ownership of problems
•Thinks beyond the ticket
•Wants to grow into L3-level capability over time

•Accountability culture – you own issues end-to-end, and it shows
•Diverse client environments – no stagnation working a single stack
•Team-first mindset – escalation paths are clear, support is real
•Work that matters – your impact is visible to clients and leadership

•Own and resolve Level 2 escalations with increasing independence
•Support multi-client MSP environments (onsite remote)
•Administer Microsoft 365 (Exchange, Entra ID, SharePoint, security, licensing)
•Support and troubleshoot virtualization platforms (VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox)
•Diagnose infrastructure issues—performance, connectivity, system reliability
•Manage Windows endpoints and server environments
•Perform Active Directory and Group Policy troubleshooting
•Troubleshoot networking issues (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls)

Compensation & Benefits
•Total Compensation: $73,000 – $104,000 annually (equivalent to $35–$50/hour), depending on experience
•Includes a KPI-based performance bonus, with approximately 10–20% of total compensation tied to performance
•Paid Time Off Paid Holidays
•Health insurance (up to 50% employer-paid for employee-only coverage)

How Performance Is Measured

•Utilization (~75% target)
