Systems Administrator

Systems Administrator II (Mid-Level) | Harrisburg, PA (On-site ramp, then hybrid)

We’re hiring a mid-level Systems Administrator (Sys Admin II) to join a small infrastructure team in the Harrisburg, PA area. This position is open due to a recent resignation, and the team is looking for someone who can be a true “jack of all trades” across server and networking work.

This is a hands‑on Sys Admin role, not a project‑scoping/architect “engineer” position. You’ll be working alongside a small team, supporting day‑to‑day infrastructure needs and handling a mix of server, Microsoft 365, virtualization, and network/firewall responsibilities.

Compensation

Salary: $85,000 to $110,000 base salary (depending on experience)

Type: Direct Hire (W2)

Location: Harrisburg, PA area

Work arrangement: On‑site 100% for the first 6 months, then eligible for up to 2 days/week work from home

What you’ll do

• Administer and support Windows Server environments (builds, configuration, troubleshooting)
• Support Active Directory (users/groups, GPOs, general domain troubleshooting)
• Administer Microsoft 365 (user access, security settings, tenant support)
• Use PowerShell for automation and troubleshooting
• Support virtualization platforms (VMware, Hyper‑V, or similar)
• Handle hands‑on networking and firewall work, including:
• Firewall deployment support, rule changes/cleanup, and troubleshooting
• Site‑to‑site VPN setup/support and connectivity troubleshooting
• Switch/router troubleshooting (basic to intermediate)
• VLAN/subnet familiarity and coordination of network changes
• DNS/DHCP troubleshooting and general network services support
• Network documentation updates (diagrams, configs, runbooks as needed)

What we’re looking for (Requirements)

• Mid‑level Systems Administration experience (not entry‑level)
• Comfortable splitting work roughly 50/50 across server and networking
• Strong foundation in Windows Server, Active Directory, and Microsoft 365
• PowerShell skills (able to work independently, not just copy/paste)
• Virtualization experience (VMware, Hyper‑V, or similar)
• Networking requirements (must have):
• Hands‑on experience supporting firewalls (rule management and troubleshooting)
• Experience with VPNs (site‑to‑site and/or client VPN troubleshooting)
• Working knowledge of TCP/IP, routing basics, and troubleshooting tools (ping, traceroute, nslookup, etc.)
• Familiarity with VLANs/subnets and common office network layouts
• Comfort troubleshooting DNS/DHCP issues in a Windows environment

Nice to have

• MSP or multi‑environment experience (helpful, but not required)
