    • Support ongoing cloud migration projects and security initiatives
    • Automate processes with PowerShell or Python
    • Contribute to business continuity, compliance, and cybersecurity efforts

    What We’re Looking For:

    • 3-6 years in systems/network administration (enterprise experience preferred)
    • Strong Microsoft 365 & Azure background; AWS a plus
    • VMware, server infrastructure, and backup/recovery skills
    • Scripting/automation skills (PowerShell, Python)
    • Bachelor’s degree required; certifications (MCSA, AWS, CCNA) are a plus

    Location & Schedule:

    • Hybrid role – Boston HQ, 4 days in office, 1 day remote
    • Occasional travel (up to ~20–25%) to other U.S. offices
    • On-call rotation: one week every six weeks

    Compensation & Perks:

    • $100K – $150K base salary
    • 10–20% annual bonus potential
    • Excellent benefits package (health, retirement, etc.)
    • Collaborative team culture, growth potential, and high visibility in the org

    If you’re looking for a role where you can make a visible impact, grow your technical scope, and be a trusted member of a lean but high-performing IT team, this opportunity is worth exploring.
