## Description

We are looking for a Senior Systems Engineer to be a top escalation point and to take on project work across our client base. When something gets past the service desk, it comes to you. This is a role for someone who has spent years in the trenches, has seen a wide range of environments, and can walk into a messy problem and work it to resolution without a lot of hand-holding.

The work is a mix. Part of it is escalation, being the person who solves the hard tickets and helps the rest of the team level up. Part of it is project work, standing up new environments, migrations, infrastructure builds, the kind of work that has a beginning and an end and needs someone who sees it through. If you like variety and you like being the person others come to when they are stuck, this is a good fit.

What You Will Do

 - Handle Tier 3 escalations across Windows Server, M365, networking, firewalls, virtualization, and backup

 - Own project work end to end, scoping, building, and seeing it through to completion

 - Serve as a technical resource and mentor for the service desk and field teams

 - Drive root cause analysis so recurring problems get fixed, not just patched

 - Document your work and keep environments to standard

 - Work directly with clients when an issue or project calls for it
