• Strong hands-on troubleshooting across Windows, Mac, and Linux systems, networking, Wi-Fi, printers, phones, and business applications.
• Structured cabling experience: installing, terminating, and testing ethernet, coax, and fiber.
• Networking fundamentals: LAN/WAN, layer 2 and layer 3 switching and routing, firewalls, VPN, and wireless.
• User and access management with Active Directory (LDAP a plus).
• Comfortable traveling frequently and working in restaurants, offices, property and construction environments, and hospitality sites.
• Experience coordinating with vendors and communicating clearly with non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to document work, follow checklists, create repeatable processes, and operate independently in the field.

• Wireless depth: Wi-Fi surveys and heat mapping, and platforms such as Ubiquiti or Cisco, including point-to-point and outdoor wireless such as Airfiber

• Cable testing and certification tools.

• Certifications such as CWNP (CWT or CWNA), Google IT Support Professional, CompTIA Network+ or Security+, Fortinet, Cisco, or Microsoft. Helpful but not required if experience is strong.
