A bit about us:

We are a technology services organization that helps clients evaluate, design, implement, secure, and manage technology across on-premise, data center, and cloud environments. Our teams deliver technical, cybersecurity, and managed services that support customer infrastructure and connectivity.

The organization operates a service provider network that supports customer environments requiring uptime, performance monitoring, and ongoing expansion as new services are deployed.

Work Arrangement: Remote (Eligible states: AK, AZ, FL, GA, NC, SC, OK, TN, TX, MO, VA)

Why join us?

This role provides the opportunity to work in a Fortinet-driven network environment supporting customer infrastructure across multiple industries.

  • Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
  • 401(k) with company match
