Position Overview:
FPCA is seeking a hands-on IT Support Network Engineer to be the custodian of our network infrastructure. This is an expert-level, primarily network-focused role, supporting Cisco Meraki environments, wired and wireless networks, routers, switches, firewalls, and access points. While your primary focus is networking, you will also support IT systems, applications, and end-user helpdesk tasks under the guidance of the IT Director. This role is not a leadership position—all major systems decisions are directed by the IT Director.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Install, test, and document network drops, patch cables, and ports; maintain network diagrams and documentation.
- Design, configure, and maintain network infrastructure; monitor and troubleshoot LAN/WAN performance.
-
Perform routine maintenance, firmware updates, security patches, backups, and cable management.
-
Implement VLANs, VPNs, QoS, and firewall rules under IT Director supervision.
-
Provide backup helpdesk support for desktops, laptops, printers, and peripheral devices.
-
Assist with Active Directory (AD), Group Policy Objects (GPOs), email (Google Mail/G Suite, Microsoft 365), and critical applications including security, alarm, telephony (RingCentral), and healthcare software (experience preferred but on the job training is available).
-
Support scripting/automation using PowerShell, batch files, or VBA (preferred but not required) under IT Director guidance.
