  • Coordinate with telecommunications providers, internet service providers, and third-party vendors when needed.
  • Create and maintain network documentation, diagrams, inventory records, and operational procedures.
  • Assist with infrastructure upgrades, hardware refreshes, and technology implementations.
  • Collaborate with systems administrators, application teams, and technical support personnel to resolve infrastructure-related issues.
  • Participate in after-hours support as needed for scheduled maintenance or critical incidents.
Technical Environment

  • SolarWinds
  • Dell Servers
  • Mitel Telecommunications

    • DNS
    • DHCP
    • VLANs
    • Routing and switching fundamentals
    • Wireless networking
    • Network security best practices
  • Experience troubleshooting network connectivity and performance issues.
