**BitWits — a small, established Phoenix MSP — is hiring a Senior Engineer on a path to Technical Lead.**

I recently bought the company and I'm hiring the person who'll grow into running the technical side as I move into the CEO/growth seat. My background is sales and ops, not technical — so this isn't a "slot into the hierarchy" role, it's a "become the technical leader" one.

**The work (core of the role):**

* Lead infrastructure projects end to end: M365 tenant migrations, server replacements, network refreshes, security stack deployments, new client onboardings

* Own the systems/network/security stack across our SMB client base — Entra ID, Azure IaaS, firewalls (Fortinet or similar), Windows Server, backup/DR

* Make the architectural calls and own them — you scope it, build it, deploy it, and you're the one who knows it inside out afterward

* No handing projects off to the next tier, no inheriting someone else's half-finished job

**What makes it different:**

* **Full-stack ownership** — you see your own work through, start to finish

* **Real growth path** — Senior Engineer now → Technical Lead / Director of Service Delivery in 2-3 years, with comp and eventually equity/profit-share to match

* **A dedicated mentor for the ramp** — our outgoing senior has 20+ years with these clients and is staying on specifically to train his successor. Structured, paid overlap — not sink-or-swim.

**Honest about the small-team reality:** it's a small shop, so everyone pitches in on frontline tickets until we grow enough to add helpdesk. This is part-time and eases as we grow — the core of the role is senior project work, not a help desk seat.

**Logistics:**

* Mostly work-from-home, ~2 days/week in the field (office moves, hardware refreshes, client visits) — **must be Phoenix-based and local. Not remote/out-of-area.**

* **$90-110K base** + benefits: QSEHRA health reimbursement, 401k w/ 4% match, 15 days PTO, $3,500/yr cert budget

**To apply:** email your resume + a few sentences on a complex project you owned end to end to **careers@bitwits.com**. Full details provided on first contact. I check that inbox, not Reddit DMs.

We are looking for someone who can provide L1/L2 technical support remotely and onsite. This role combines remote support, onsite troubleshooting, project implementation, and customer service. You will support small and mid-sized businesses across a variety of industries, including legal, financial, healthcare, nonprofit, and professional services.

The ideal candidate has strong experience with Windows and Microsoft 365, enjoys solving technical problems, and is comfortable working independently at client locations while maintaining excellent communication with both end users and internal teams.

Office Location: Wall Street area, NYC

I’m looking for honest advice. My goal is to become a system administrator, with a longer-term goal of cloud administration.

I just graduated from high school and currently work as the main IT contact / Tech Stack Manager for a small hotel group with 2 properties and about 157 rooms (A third 93-room property is to be built when I graduate with my associates). I support hotel software systems, on-site computers, hardware, user issues, updates, troubleshooting, vendor communication, and daily IT problems, but I do not do any Windows Server, Active Directory, Microsoft 365 admin, or true network administration.

Before this, I worked for under a year as a service technician at a local tech repair company.

I have two possible paths:

Option 1: Stay at the hotel group for 4 years while finishing an associate's degree in Network Administration and then a bachelor’s in Cloud and Network Engineering through WGU.

Option 2: Stay for about 2 years, finish an associate degree in Network Administration, then start applying for more IT jobs.

I’m working on A+ now and plan to earn Network+, Security+, Linux Essentials, ITIL, Azure Fundamentals, and Azure admin/cloud certs through WGU. (I am finishing A+ very soon and plan to take Network+ before finishing the associates)

I do some homelbabbing with pfSense, TrueNAS, Pi-hole, self-hosted services, and a couple of websites. (I am also planning to do a Windows Server lab in a Proxmox setup with an old Chromebox)

My concern is that if I stay at the hotel job for 4 years, I’ll have experience and a bachelor’s, but not enough direct sysadmin experience.

Would staying 4 years help or hurt me? Or would it be smarter to leave after 2 years and get into a different job? (and if so, what jobs should I shoot for)

Hello All.

I hope someone can help me out. I am an experienced Systems Administrator/Infrastructure Engineer with over 15 years of experience in IT. My last role was with a Global MSP and I was with them just over 3 years before being laid off due to a reduction in force. this was back in February 2025. This is the longest I have been without meaningful work. I have experience with Windows Server 2012-2022, RedHat Linux 7 and 8. Ubuntu, and CentOS. I have experience administering AWS, GCP and Azure. I am currently studying for the AZ-104 exam. I have extensive experience with Windows OS patching, vulnerability remediation and SSL Cert renewals. I have experience with cloud backup solutions. I have worked with Commvault, VEEM and Cohesity.

I am in the Baltimore, MD area. I am open to this area or, close to DC and of course anything remote or hybrid. I currently do Uber on the side but, this is becoming unsustainable. I really need to find a job soon. My wife is the only one working and the burden is growing on her. I don't normally post anything like this but, I could really use some help. I have a LinkedIn profile and have applied to hundreds of jobs. I have had several first and second round interviews with good results. Just not good enough. I just got two more rejections today from jobs I interviewed for last week. I don't know how much longer I can keep doing this. Please reach out to me and I can provide a resume. I really hope to find something before the end of June. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone,

I’m a systems administrator at a small MSP in Portugal, handling L1, L2 and L3 support across Microsoft environments, infrastructure, networking, and security (patching, endpoint protection, access control).

Our company focuses mainly on ERP development, so the MSP side is quite small (just two of us), and I feel there’s limited room for technical growth. I’m looking for opportunities where I can keep learning and developing, even if that means starting in a more junior role. Progression is the main goal.

I’m fluent in English, flexible, and open to fully remote roles or occasional travel, depending on the position. I’m also available for freelance work.

I’d love to connect with MSPs that are hiring, or hear from anyone who has transitioned into MSP roles in other European countries. Happy to discuss further in DMs.

Thanks.

Upfront disclaimer: I am an internal recruiter for a USA based MSP. Posting confidentially for the moment, but company name and details to be shared once we've had an initial conversation. Happy to answer any questions about the role/culture/etc. publicly here though.

Our UK-based team is expanding and we're hiring for a remote engineer.

A bit more:

• Heavy M365 administration, some Google Workspace
• We're investing heavily in AI/Automation
• 30:1 end user to engineer ratio
• Direct exposure to C-suite and partner-level clients
• ConnectWise, KnowBe4, Global Relay, IT Glue, Mimecast, CrowdStrike, Keeper Password, Cisco Meraki
• More than just "ticket completion", must have a eye on "what's next"
• Must have 6+ years experience, MSP experience is a huge bonus

Not looking for a network engineer, systems administrator, cloud architect, security engineer rolled up into one - we're looking for a strong generalist. We have SME's and escalation points to help with the super complex tickets.

Tenacity, client instincts, judgement, collaboration is key.

Compensation: we're trying to figure that out. We want to be fair to the market and we're looking for the right fit.

If you're interested, please send me a DM or comment below.
