Network Engineer

Love a challenging, fast paced environment? Want to make a jump into Networking – you think you can learn anything and everything associated with running a network - from unboxing a switch to configuring RADIUS authentication for an AP to troubleshooting BGP peering issues over a VPN connection? Do you make Visio floorplans of the furniture layout in your house? Do you speak in acronyms like TCP/IP, DNS, EIGRP, AAA, DNS, BGP, OSFP, SSH, and others?

If the answer is yes – you might be a fit – and you’ll deserve a free cold beer in the company break room at the end of the day.
