Full Job Description

Role Overview

This role is for someone who can own networking work end-to-end: firewall replacements, network refreshes, site cutovers, and clean configurations that don’t create tomorrow’s fires.

You’ll plan the change, execute the change, document the change, and verify the change. Success is measured by stable installs, tight security, clean documentation, and fewer recurring network issues, not by how busy you look.

Key Responsibilities

Plan and execute firewall replacements (cutover plans, backups, rollback plans, validation)
Configure and troubleshoot firewall policies (NAT, rules, security profiles, content filtering as applicable)
Build and support site-to-site VPNs, client VPN, and secure remote access
Design and implement VLANs, routing, switching, and segmentation aligned to standards
Configure and optimize Wi-Fi networks (coverage planning, SSIDs, security, performance tuning)
Perform network refresh projects: switch replacements, uplinks, port configs, rack cleanups, cabling coordination
Diagnose complex network issues (latency, packet loss, DNS/DHCP, loop storms, misroutes, duplex issues, etc.)
Coordinate with ISPs and vendors for circuit turn-ups, outages, and escalations
Create/update network documentation: diagrams, IP schemes, device configs, standards, and “what changed” notes
Follow change management: approvals, maintenance windows, user comms, post-change verification
Participate in an on-call / after-hours cutover rotation as needed (we plan ahead, we don’t live in chaos)

What Success Looks Like

Consistently delivering firewall/network cutovers on time with clean rollback plans
Network-related incidents drop because fixes are root-cause, not band-aids
Configs are standardized and documented so anyone can support the environment
You become the “go-to” for clean network builds—because your work doesn’t create repeat tickets
Clients trust your presence and communication during high-stakes changes
You help us tighten baselines across the client base

Our Non-Negotiables / Culture

We’re not interested in excuses. We’re interested in results, ownership, and standards.

Extreme Ownership: if it breaks, we own it and fix the system
Discipline is non-negotiable: we do the work right, even when no one’s watching
High standards in all things: configs, documentation, communication, follow-through
Continuous learning: you sharpen your skills and stay current
Family & legacy matter: we work hard, but we do it with purpose

If you want a place to coast, this isn’t it. If you want to build real skill and be proud of your work, keep reading.

Our Non-Negotiables / Culture

We operate with high standards and clear expectations. These are not slogans — they are the behaviors we hire, coach, and evaluate against. If these don’t resonate with how you work, this role will not be a fit.

Family & Legacy Matter

We believe strong people build strong families and take pride in the legacy they are creating through their work.

Discipline Is Non-Negotiable

You do what you say you’ll do, when you say you’ll do it. Reliability matters here.

Unwavering Work Ethic

This is not a place to coast. We expect consistent effort, urgency, and follow-through.

Continuous Learning & Growth

You are committed to improving your skills, your mindset, and your results.

Extreme Ownership

We take responsibility for outcomes. No victim mentality. Problems get owned and solved.

No Tolerance for Excuses

We value solutions, adjustments, and accountability over explanations.

High Standards in All Things

Clean work, clean documentation, clean handoffs.

Laser Focus on Priorities

You focus on what moves the needle and avoid busywork or distractions.

Relentless Pursuit of Excellence

We continuously raise the bar — personally, professionally, and as a team.

If you want a place to coast, this isn’t it.

Requirements/Must-Haves

3+ years hands-on experience with networking and firewall configuration in production environments
Proven experience leading firewall replacements/cutovers (not just “I helped once”)
Solid understanding of TCP/IP, routing, switching, VLANs, DNS/DHCP, NAT, VPNs
Ability to troubleshoot logically under pressure and communicate clearly during incidents/cutovers
Strong documentation habits (diagrams, configs, notes that another tech can actually use)
Valid driver’s license and ability to travel locally for onsite work as needed

Nice-to-Haves (Preferred)

Experience with common SMB firewall platforms (Fortinet, SonicWall, Meraki, Palo Alto SMB, etc.)
Experience with managed switching/Wi-Fi platforms (Meraki, UniFi, Aruba Instant On, etc.)
Certifications (Network+, CCNA, NSE, vendor certs)
MSP / IT services company background (you understand ticketing, standards, and multi-client environments)

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive W-2 compensation based on experience and capability
Health benefits (if applicable), paid time off, and paid holidays
Training/certification support for the right person
Company tools/equipment provided
Clear growth path for high performers (no politics, just a scoreboard)

Pay: $65,000.00 - $105,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Dental insurance
Health insurance
Paid time off
Retirement plan
Vision insurance

Work Location: In person
