Join an established Utah-based technology services provider as a Network Support Engineer in a part-time contract role supporting enterprise clients with comprehensive network infrastructure management. This remote position requires you to be located near Ogden, UT and provides 20 hours of work per week with flexible scheduling within business hours. You'll focus on ongoing maintenance, monitoring, and support of Aruba network infrastructure including switches and wireless access points across large-scale network deployments. This role provides consistent weekly support to ensure network devices are operating efficiently, troubleshoot issues proactively, and assist with device deployments and replacements as needed. The position offers competitive hourly compensation based on experience level, ranging from mid-level to senior rates.
Why This Role Stands Out
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced network professional seeking flexible, part-time work with consistent hours and remote flexibility. The focused scope on Aruba switching and wireless infrastructure allows you to develop deep expertise in a single vendor platform while working across multiple enterprise client environments. Unlike full-time positions that may involve diverse responsibilities, this role provides clear focus on network device maintenance, monitoring, and troubleshooting, making it ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on network operations. The 20-hour weekly commitment offers work-life balance while maintaining professional engagement in the technology field. Working remotely near Ogden, UT provides geographic flexibility while supporting local enterprise clients. The established technology services provider offers stability and ongoing work supporting large-scale Aruba deployments. You'll work independently with autonomy to manage your schedule within business hours, providing consistent support without the demands of full-time employment.
