- Communicate project updates and issue status to clients and internal teams via PSA tools, documentation, email, and phone
- Collaborate with third-party vendors to expedite issue resolution
- Manage and document service tickets with accurate time entry
- Participate in an after-hours on-call rotation (approximately 1 week every 5-6 weeks)
- Adhere to company policies, procedures, and security best practices
What You Bring
- 3 years of Network Engineering experience in a Managed Service Provider environment
- 5 years of combined IT field experience (network engineering, service desk, field technician, or similar)

- Ability to pass a drug test and CJIS authorization requirements
Nice to Have
- Experience with SonicWall, Fortinet, and/or Ubiquiti networking equipment
- Familiarity with Datto and Slide for backup and disaster recovery
