Are you an experienced MSP engineer who enjoys solving complex problems and working across diverse client environments? The Dirks Group, a trusted MSP supporting organizations across central Wisconsin, is looking for a Systems Administrator to design, implement, and support modern infrastructure solutions.
This is a hands-on, senior-level role where you’ll take ownership of client environments, lead projects, and serve as a key escalation point for advanced technical challenges. This is an in-person role based in Wausau, Wisconsin.
What You’ll Get:
- Competitive salary
- Health, dental, and vision benefits
- 401(k) + PTO
- Performance-based incentives
- Ongoing training and support
- A collaborative, team-oriented culture with a variety of technical challenges
What You’ll Do
- Design, deploy, support, and continuously improve client infrastructure across networking, servers, and cloud environments
- Work with technologies including firewalls, switches, wireless, VPNs, physical/virtual servers, Azure, and Microsoft 365
- Act as a senior escalation point, resolving complex issues and performing root-cause analysis
- Lead client-facing projects such as migrations, upgrades, refreshes, and new implementations
- Define and document infrastructure standards, architectures, and major configuration changes
- Collaborate with clients and internal teams on technical planning and long-term roadmaps
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to overall team growth
What You Bring
- 2–5 years of experience in a similar technical role (MSP experience preferred)
- Strong networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, routing, switching)
- Hands-on experience with firewalls, VPNs, and network security appliances
- Experience supporting Windows Server and virtualization platforms (VMware and/or Hyper-V)
- Proven experience with Azure and Microsoft 365, including hybrid environments
- Ability to troubleshoot complex issues independently and communicate clearly with clients
- Comfort working in a fast-paced, client-facing MSP environment
- Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation
Nice to Have
- Infrastructure or cloud certifications
- Experience with hybrid identity solutions
Why This Role Stands Out
- Work across diverse client environments—no two days are the same
- Take real ownership of projects and technical decisions
- Be a key technical leader within a growing MSP
