  • Close out everyday IT issues quickly to keep mission impact low.
  • Keep the CMDB accurate: network diagrams, IPAM records, device configs, appliance inventories and certificate expiration dates.

  • Enterprise LAN/WAN administration: VLANs, routing, firewalls, VPN tunnels, DNS/DHCP
  • Hands-on integration of network appliances (PDUs, NTP, printers, clocks) in regulated settings
  • Certificate lifecycle work (issue, renew, revoke) and DIT encryption standards
  • Strong troubleshooting with fast resolution in mission-critical environments
  • Network documentation, IPAM and CMDB upkeep
  • Clear communication and good working relationships with cyber, systems and operations teams
Nice to Have
  • Support of federal, defense or aerospace mission networks
  • Formal configuration management and change request processes, including presenting to technical control boards
  • Enterprise monitoring and logging tools for capacity and performance management
  • Federal cybersecurity baselines, policies and compliance reporting
Additional Requirements
