You are the one who sees the entire project lifecycle and ensures it lands clean. What You'll Actually Do Lead technical scoping calls with SMB client stakeholders (not enterprise boards) Evaluate existing environments and identify modernization paths Draft SOWs, deployment plans, timelines, and resource requirements Execute infrastructure upgrades: virtualization, hardware refresh, routing/switching, backup Own hybrid environments with M365 + on-prem + light cloud extensions Build out VPN, network segmentation, remote access best practice models Partner closely with vCIO for strategy and TAM for operational follow-through Ensure documentation, closeout procedures, and handoff to operations are polished Ideal Experience Profile 3-6 years in an MSP environment required Hands-on with M365 identity, tenant cleanup, conditional access Comfortable with SMB virtualization (Hyper-V, VMware) and server refresh cycles Solid networking fundamentals (switching, VLANs, VPN tunnels) Can communicate clearly with non-technical end users and mid-market leadership Enjoy modernization: structured rollouts, refresh plans, standardization This is project ownership, technical planning, and predictable delivery. Why We are Different We've crossed the phase where MSPs typically stall, we're scaling upward, not sideways Senior leadership investment is long-term (security maturity, automation, compliance) We scope before we assign and you won't wake up to mystery Friday cutovers Security-first approach vs. “keep the lights on” MSP model Compensation & Benefits $115K - $130K 401(k) with match Medical, dental, vision HSA options Life insurance Paid time off Professional development + certification investment
