Job description

Execute infrastructure implementation projects end-to-end, including Windows Server deployments, virtualization migrations (VMware and Hyper-V), and network/firewall buildouts across client environments. You’ll work from a defined SOW and project plan, coordinating directly with a dedicated Project Manager and documenting completed work before the project closes. Expect a mix of remote delivery and periodic client site work.

  • Deploy and migrate Windows Server environments (2016-2022)
  • Design and implement VMware vSphere/ESXi and Microsoft Hyper-V solutions
  • Configure enterprise firewall platforms (Fortinet, Cisco, and similar)
  • Execute network infrastructure projects including routing, switching, VLANs, and VPNs
  • Produce required documentation at project close
  • Flag out-of-scope conditions to your PM so change orders can be processed correctly
  • Work directly with clients on-site and remotely to deliver exceptional results

  • VMware vSphere / ESXi

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on infrastructure engineering experience in an MSP or project-delivery environment
  • Demonstrable depth in Windows Server and at least one major virtualization platform (VMware or Hyper-V)
  • Strong firewall configuration and network troubleshooting skills - especially Fortinet
  • Comfort working within a structured project methodology - you follow a plan, communicate proactively, and escalate scope issues rather than absorbing them
  • The ability to translate technical work into clear client-facing communication
  • Willingness to travel to client sites as needed

Bonus Points

  • Microsoft, VMware, or Fortinet/NSE certifications
  • CCNA or CCNP
  • Experience with ConnectWise

About the company

NetGain Technologies is looking for a Senior Project Engineer to join our Professional Services team. This isn’t a break/fix role or a help desk escalation path - it’s a project delivery seat.

NetGain encourages you to break that statistic and to apply. No one ever meets 100% of the qualifications. We look forward to your application.
