Job description

In addition to providing remote technical support, this position may require occasional travel to on-site projects on an as-needed basis to assist with installations, troubleshooting, and other technical support requirements.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to grow into a permanent role within a collaborative IT environment.

  • Support and troubleshoot Cisco Meraki networking equipment, including wireless access points, switches, and security appliances
  • Monitor devices and diagnose network issues using the Cisco Meraki Dashboard

Schedule: This position is expected to maintain general working hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time (ET) to support business operations and coordinate with customers and field technicians across time zones.
