We are looking for a professional who thrives on variety and visibility. We’re seeking a Consultative System Administrator—a skilled technical professional who enjoys the hands-on work of managing diverse environments while acting as a trusted, collaborative advisor for our clients.


Since 2007, we’ve been the premier IT partner for SMBs across Orange County. We’ve built a low-ego, high-performance culture where your technical expertise is matched only by your ability to build genuine client trust—and as this is a high-impact role, proven MSP experience navigating fast-paced, multi-tenant environments with precision is a mandatory requirement.


HOW YOU’LL DRIVE IMPACT:

  • Identity & Management: You’ll manage Active Directory and Group Policy to maintain security standards and ensure consistent configurations across our client base.
  • Networking & Connectivity: You’ll support and maintain SonicWall and Cisco environments, managing VPN tunnels and network security to ensure reliable, protected connectivity.
  • Server & Cloud Operations: You’ll oversee the health and performance of Windows Server (2016-2022) and SQL environments while managing user environments within M365 and Google Workspace.
  • System Reliability: You’ll implement and test Disaster Recovery and Backup solutions, ensuring that our clients' data is safe and their business continuity is never in doubt.
  • Technical Reviews: You’ll conduct IT audits to identify infrastructure needs, then help translate those technical findings into proactive recommendations during client QBRs.
  • THE SPLIT:

    • 75% Technical Execution: Managing escalations, maintaining server health, and optimizing network performance.
    • 25% Consultative Strategy: Acting as the "Face of IT" during audits and helping clients plan their technical roadmap.


    WHY JOIN THE TEAM?

    • Growth-First: We provide full reimbursement for certifications and ongoing technical training.
    • Collaborative Culture: Work in an environment where your input is valued and you can see the direct impact of your work.
