• Support scripting/automation using Power Shell, batch files, or VBA (preferred but not required) under IT Director guidance.

• 10+ years of IT experience with expert-level network skills (required).
• Advanced knowledge of TCP/IP, routing, switching, DNS, DHCP, VPNs, VLANs, and wireless networking.
• Cisco Meraki experience required.
• Strong troubleshooting, organizational, and communication skills.
• Certifications like CompTIA Network+, Security+, CCNA, or CCNP preferred but not required.
• Valid driver's license and active auto insurance required.

• Mobility within the workplace and offsite supported locations required.
• Must be able to sit and use hands to handle and feel for extended periods.
• Must be able to lift and move equipment weighing up to 50 pounds.

• Occasional work in or near drywall, fiberglass, attics, and crawlspaces.

• Health Insurance (Single and Family)
• Dental Insurance (Single and Family)
• Vision Insurance (Single and Family)
• Vacation Accrual (2 weeks)
• Holidays (up to 6 days per year)
• Sick Leave (1 week/year - first year is prorated)
