About The Position

Stimulus Technologies is seeking a Network Administrator to operate, maintain, and expand our Internet service provider network in Nevada and throughout our multi-state service area. This is a hands-on technical position supporting fiber, fixed-wireless, carrier transport, tower, and core routing infrastructure. The Network Administrator will configure network equipment, monitor performance, investigate outages, support field technicians, maintain accurate documentation, and implement projects designed by the Network Infrastructure Architect. The position is based in Las Vegas and includes a combination of office work, remote network administration, field visits, and travel. This is not a traditional corporate IT or end-user support position; it is focused specifically on operating ISP infrastructure.

Working knowledge of TCP/IP, subnetting, VLANs, routing, switching, DHCP, DNS, NAT, VPNs, and network security.
Experience with advanced routing protocols such as BGP and OSPF.
Ability to configure and troubleshoot routers, switches, wireless equipment, and network-management platforms.
Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.
Ability to work methodically during high-pressure, customer-impacting incidents.
Strong written documentation and verbal communication skills.
Demonstrated reliability, accountability, and professional judgment.
Availability for planned after-hours work, on-call support, and emergency outages.

Perform capacity reviews and identify equipment, circuits, or network segments requiring upgrades.
Follow change-management, maintenance-window, security, and documentation procedures.
Work with carriers and vendors to resolve circuit, equipment, and service problems.
