ROLE OVERVIEW

Own day-to-day network monitoring, troubleshooting, configuration, and documentation for client and internal environments.

Support network gear remotely, including switches, firewalls, routers, access points, and VPNs connected at the Fair Lawn site.

Work closely with NEs; coordinate with Engineers when physical access is required.

Operate with MSP discipline: clear ticket notes, safe changes, proactive monitoring, and customer-ready communication.

DAILY MONITORING FOCUS

Availability: Internet/WAN/LAN uptime, VPN tunnel status, firewall/switch/AP health, and key device alerts.

Performance: bandwidth usage, network speed, interface utilization, latency, jitter, packet loss, and ping drops.

Wireless: AP status, SSID availability, roaming/client drops, coverage concerns, and dashboard/controller alerts.

Escalation: document findings, identify trends, summarize business impact, and escalate to Local NEs with next steps.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

Troubleshoot outages, slow network reports, VPN failures, wireless issues, VLAN problems, DHCP/DNS symptoms, routing issues, and intermittent connectivity.

Configure VLANs, trunks/access ports, ACLs, NAT, routes, SSIDs, DHCP relay, firewall policies, SSL VPN, and IPsec/site-to-site VPN tunnels.

Perform remote changes using backups, change notes, testing steps, rollback plans, and clear escalation paths.

Maintain clean documentation for tickets, network changes, monitoring findings, and client-facing updates.

MUST-HAVE SKILLS

Hands-on experience with Cisco, Cisco Meraki, Fortinet/FortiGate, and Palo Alto-class network environments.

VPN setup and troubleshooting experience is mandatory, especially SSL VPN and IPsec/site-to-site VPN.

Firewall experience: policies, NAT, ACLs, routing, DNS impact, log review, and security rule troubleshooting.

Switching/routing experience: VLANs, STP, trunks, access ports, port channels/EtherChannel, inter-VLAN routing, routing tables and reserving IPs.

Wireless experience: access point support, SSIDs, roaming/client drops, coverage issues, and Meraki/controller dashboard alerts.

Monitoring mindset: uptime, latency, packet loss, bandwidth saturation, interface errors, AP failures, and recurring degradation patterns.

Remote change discipline: backups, change notes, validation, rollback plan, and coordination with on-site smart-hands.

Strong communication: clear ticket updates, escalation notes, change summaries, and client-ready impact statements.

PREFERRED SKILLS

Certifications such as CCNA, CCNP Enterprise/Security, Fortinet, Palo Alto, Meraki, or equivalent credentials.

MSP experience supporting multiple clients, different network standards, and urgent network escalations.

Supporting Go-lives and Network migrations before, during and after onboarding new clients

Experience with Cisco Catalyst, Meraki MX/MS/MR, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, Cisco ASA/Firepower, Palo Alto, and FortiGate platforms.

Adjacent technical exposure: Cisco ISE, Zscaler, SD-WAN, CUCM/voice networks, syslog, Azure, VMware/Hyper-V, Linux, and Windows servers.

Experience with ticketing/PSA platform such as Halo and Documentation tool such as Hudu.

Experience with RMM tools such as Ninja and ScreenConnect
