DescriptionOpen Technology Solutions is looking for an experienced network engineer who wants to own a platform, not just work tickets on it. You'll be the primary owner of OTS's Cisco switching and wireless environment, from new office builds and day-to-day support to the long-term roadmap. If you think in terms of business outcomes and can explain your work to leadership as clearly as you can configure a switch, we want to hear from you.
Responsibilities- Own the Cisco switching and wireless platform end to end, including lifecycle, roadmap recommendations, compliance, and keeping it current and well maintained.
- Lead and execute new branch builds and related network projects.
- Support day-to-day switching and wireless operations and troubleshoot complex issues across the network.
- Resolve escalated tickets that our managed services provider can't, and help hold the MSP accountable for the work they own.
- Build and maintain runbooks and documentation the rest of the team can follow.
- Participate in project calls with internal leaders and partner organizations, translating technical work into business outcomes.
- Share knowledge with the team, including presenting on your areas of expertise in staff meetings.
- Partner with cross-functional teams to get things done when the fix lives outside your lane, rather than stopping at the edge of your area.
Qualifications- 5+ years of network engineering experience
- Deep, hands-on expertise with Cisco switching and wireless
- Palo Alto firewall experience
- Strong troubleshooting skills at a senior level
- Nice to have: HPE SD-WAN, network automation, or cloud networking experience
- CCNP preferred
- A platform-ownership mindset. This is not a ticket-queue job. You own the outcome, not just the task.
- Self-directed. You take work from start to finish without needing to be managed closely.
- Comfortable in front of people. You can hold your own on a call with leadership or partners.
- Thrives in change. OTS is in a period of transition, and you'll need to navigate shifting priorities with a level head.
- Bonus points for a background that blends small-shop creativity with large-enterprise discipline.
Compensation and Details- Compensation: $135K-$150K + 10% bonus
- Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision; open vacation policy and paid sick time; up to 11 paid holidays; 401(k) with employer match and discretionary contribution
- Schedule: Full-time. Includes on-call rotation and after-hours maintenance windows.
- Location: Centennial, CO. Hybrid, 3 days in office / 2 remote
