System Administrator L2 (MSP) Chicagoland Hybrid Growth Track: Senior Engineer → Project Lead → Client Advisor If you've worked in the SMB MSP world, you know the difference between a shop that “runs tickets” and one that builds careers. That's the core of who we are. We serve small-mid sized organizations that value responsiveness, clarity, and relationships - not enterprise red tape. We won #1 Best Workplace in Illinois because we built a place where engineers feel supported, mentored, and part of a team that wins together. We've scaled rapidly over the last two years and are continuing to invest heavily in people, tooling, learning paths, and quality-of-life. This role was created to develop the next wave of our technical leaders. Why this role exists Client growth = internal growth Internal career track needs new rising talent Clear skill ladder set by senior engineering, not “learn and drown” If you want to continue growing technically without losing balance, sanity, or mentorship, this will feel like your place. What You'll Actually Do Own resolutions end-to-end, not just pass them along Strengthen Microsoft 365 environments (Teams, Exchange, SharePoint, Entra ID) Troubleshoot workstation, authentication, access, and connectivity issues Manage laptop/desktop setups, identity permissions, and basic networking fixes Collaborate with engineers who explain AND teach Participate in a coaching-oriented queue and no silos, no ego walls This role is technical, but also relational - we expect clarity, calm communication, and follow-through. What You Bring Comfort resolving Windows & M365 issues without handholding Experience in an MSP / IT services model (preferred but not required if you “get SMB”) Working knowledge of Teams, mailbox moves, access/permissions, SharePoint Basic networking comfort (Wi-Fi, VLANs, printers, switching concepts) Curiosity & hunger to progress into project work / senior engineering Compensation & Perks $70K-$85K 3 weeks PTO Profit sharing Medical, dental, vision, telemedicine Life & disability coverage Weekly DoorDash meal benefit Certification bonuses & paid learning paths Recognition & rewards platform (earn PTO + bonuses) Retirement plan with company match True mentorship, not “sink or swim” Why People Stay Here Coaching > pressure Growth > grind Quality-of-life > churn You'll have upward mobility as we continue to scale into project engineering, senior technical work, and eventually client advisory if that fits your path.

Cloud Infrastructure Engineer (Career Path → Senior Cloud Engineer / Security Engineer) $95,000 - $110,000 + Monthly Bonus I'm hiring again because our cloud and security practice continues to scale faster than expected. Over the past few years, we've doubled recurring revenue, expanded our project delivery team, and strengthened our cloud-first service model. We're a financially backed, growth-focused MSP serving SMB and mid-market clients across Chicago, and we've invested heavily in Azure, automation, security hardening, and standardizing how we deliver modern cloud environments. What makes us different is the culture: small, tight-knit, highly technical, and built around real career development-not the reactive, chaotic MSP experience so many engineers are burned out from. Engineers here actually get to grow. You'll work directly with senior cloud architects, have a documented advancement track, and operate inside an efficient, proactive managed services framework. We're now adding a Cloud Infrastructure Engineer who wants to deepen expertise in Azure, identity, network modernization, and modern workplace design. If you want a long-term role where you're part of a collaborative engineering team and not just grinding tickets, this will feel like a breath of fresh air. What You'll Work On • Lead and own cloud-first technical operations across Microsoft 365, Azure, Entra ID, identity governance, endpoint management, and cloud networking. • Act as a technical advisor for clients, helping shape cloud modernization plans and ensuring best practices in security and automation. • Participate in and help deliver cloud transformation projects-Azure build-outs, virtualized infrastructures, network redesigns, and security enhancements. • Build strong relationships with clients, positioning yourself as a trusted technical resource (no ticket mill culture). • Improve documentation, templates, design patterns, and internal processes as we continue to scale our cloud practice. • Work comfortably in both independent and collaborative environments with a team that supports each other. Who Thrives Here • Someone with 3-5+ years in the MSP world handling diverse environments. • Strong hands-on background with Azure, Microsoft 365, identity, Windows Server, and cloud-driven operations. • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals-DNS, DHCP, routing, VLANs, firewalls, cloud networking concepts. • Familiar with modern MSP tooling (Kaseya, Autotask, NinjaOne, Datto, etc.). • Excellent communicator who feels comfortable advising clients and presenting recommendations. • Self-motivated technologist who enjoys learning, stepping into new areas, and collaborating with a team that moves fast. • Certifications (CompTIA, Microsoft, Azure) are a plus but not required. Why People Stay Here • Career path into Senior Cloud Engineer, Cloud Architect, or Security Engineer roles. • Financially backed MSP with real stability, not a struggling reactive shop. • Proactive engineering culture, predictable workload, and strong quality-of-life environment. • A team that values learning, mentorship, and internal promotions. • Hybrid flexibility after onboarding, monthly bonus structure, and strong benefits. • Leadership that listens, invests in modern tools, and creates opportunities for growth.
