Job description

  • Own advanced escalations for workstations, servers, Azure resources, networking, and line-of-business apps.

  • Lead mini-projects (Azure deployments, firewall configuration and deployment, Wi-Fi refreshes) and shadow senior engineers on larger efforts.

  • Camera & access control: remotely configure Digital Watchdog/Speco cameras, validate streams and NVR recording, adjust Brivo door schedules, issue credentials, and collect logs-no ladder work required (aside from the occasional patch-cable swap).

  • Server & cloud administration: AD and Azure AD user/group management, GPO updates, routine patching, Microsoft 365 tenant management.

  • Cloud backups: design, implement, and monitor client backup strategies using Datto (SIRIS, ALTO, SaaS Protection); run test restores and document results.

  • MDM support: enroll and manage iOS & Android devices via Hexnode, push profiles/policies, and perform secure lock/wipe when needed.

  • Networking: diagnose DHCP/DNS, VLAN tagging, VPN tunnels, and firewall policies; configure and troubleshoot FortiGate, UniFi, and Cisco Meraki gear (other brands a plus) and document everything in ITGlue.

  • Automation & documentation: script repetitive tasks in PowerShell/Bash and create clear KB articles and SOPs.

  • AI-augmented support: leverage tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT to accelerate troubleshooting, draft documentation, and improve response times.

  • Client communication: translate findings into plain English, set timelines, and follow through to resolution.

  • On-site visits: drive to client sites across LI/NYC/NJ for hands-on troubleshooting (mileage reimbursed).

  • Participate in an after-hours rotation (about one week every 6-8 weeks) for priority-1 incidents.

Requirements

  • 3-5 years help-desk/NOC experience in an MSP setting.

  • Strong knowledge of Windows 10/11, Microsoft 365, basic AD & GPO.

  • Solid Hyper-V administration and hands-on Azure VM/networking exposure.

  • Networking fundamentals-VLANs, VPNs, DHCP/DNS, firewall rules-plus experience with FortiGate, UniFi, or Meraki gear (CCNA, Network+ or equivalent knowledge).

  • Practical exposure to Digital Watchdog, Speco, Brivo, or similar IP-based security systems.

  • Familiarity with MDM platforms (Hexnode preferred) for iOS & Android device management.

  • Comfortable writing PowerShell or Bash scripts.

  • Excellent documentation and customer-facing communication skills.

  • Valid NY/NJ driver's license and reliable vehicle.

  • Ability to carry up to 40 lbs and work in low-clearance spaces.

  • At least one relevant certification (Network+, CCNA, Microsoft, Brivo/DW, Hexnode) or willingness to earn one within 6 months.
