Senior Project Engineer

Description

 NetGain Technologies is looking for a Senior Project Engineer to join our Professional Services team. This isn’t a break/fix role or a help desk escalation path — it’s a project delivery seat. You’ll execute structured implementation projects for small business, mid-market, and enterprise clients, working directly with our PMO from kickoff through documented closeout.

If you’re the kind of engineer who reads a project plan before touching a config, takes pride in leaving an environment better than you found it, and can walk into a client site and own the room — this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

Execute infrastructure and cloud implementation projects end-to-end, including Windows Server and Hyper-V deployments and migrations, Azure Cloud migrations (IaaS, Entra ID, and SaaS solutions), and network/firewall buildouts across client environments. You’ll work from a defined SOW and project plan, coordinating directly with a dedicated Project Manager and documenting completed work before the project closes. Expect a mix of remote delivery and periodic client site work.

• Deploy and migrate Windows Server environments (2016–2025) and Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization platforms

• Migrate and deploy Azure Cloud environments, including IaaS workloads, Entra ID implementations, and SaaS solutions

• Configure enterprise firewall platforms (Fortinet, Cisco, and similar) and manage general network switching

• Execute network infrastructure projects including routing, VLANs, and VPNs

• Produce required documentation at project close

• Flag out-of-scope conditions to your PM so change orders can be processed correctly

• Work directly with clients on-site and remotely to deliver exceptional results

Tech You’ll Work With

• Windows Server (2016–2025) and Microsoft Hyper-V

• Azure (IaaS), Entra ID, and Microsoft 365 / SaaS solutions

• Fortinet FortiGate, Cisco (routing/switching), Aruba, Meraki

• Active Directory

• VMware vSphere/ESXi (secondary/legacy environments)

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on infrastructure engineering experience in an MSP or project-delivery environment

• Demonstrable depth in Windows Server and Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization

• Hands-on experience with Azure Cloud — IaaS deployments, Entra ID, and SaaS solution migrations

• Strong firewall configuration and general network switching skills — especially Fortinet, Meraki and Aruba

• Comfort working within a structured project methodology and alongside the PMO — you follow a plan, communicate proactively, and escalate scope issues rather than absorbing them

• Strong planning skills — able to scope, sequence, and drive a project plan from kickoff to closeout

• Adaptability — comfortable shifting priorities across client environments and technologies without losing sight of the plan

• The ability to translate technical work into clear client-facing communication

• Willingness to travel to client sites as needed

Bonus Points

• Microsoft (Azure, Windows Server, Hyper-V) or Fortinet/NSE certifications

• CCNA or CCNP

• Experience with VMware vSphere/ESXi

• Experience with ConnectWise 

• Multi-site deployment experience

• A track record of clean project closeouts with fully documented environments

Why NetGain?

• Open PTO

• Paid certification training

• Medical, dental, vision, HSA/FSA

• 401(k)

• Employer-paid life/disability coverage

• A team that holds itself to a high standard and actually likes working together

We know great engineers don’t always check every box. If this role sounds like a fit, apply — we’d rather have the conversation.
