Job description

Systems Administrator

At HawkPoint Technologies, we don’t just work in tech—we tech with purpose. With over 20 years in IT services, development, and cybersecurity, we help businesses harness technology to do what they do best.

And yes, we still build servers for fun and troubleshoot in our sleep. Short of Oompa Loompas and a scary boat ride, HawkPoint is basically Willy Wonka’s factory for tech people.

Are you tech people material? Because we need one. Specifically, we’re looking for a Systems Administrator (maybe even two). If I have to explain what a Systems Administrator does, you’re probably not the right person—but let’s bullet some points anyway, just in case.

What You’ll Do: Systems Administration

You’ll support and troubleshoot a wide range of technologies—desktops, Microsoft 365, servers, networks, and everything in between. No two days are the same, and you’ll be counted on to handle whatever’s thrown your way—with skill, calm, and a good attitude.

Core Skills You’ll Use Daily

  • Windows Server & Active Directory
  • Microsoft 365 (Azure AD, Intune, or hybrid AD environments)
  • Desktop troubleshooting
  • Networking fundamentals (IP/DNS/VPN/firewall concepts)
  • Cisco, Meraki, and Ubiquiti switches/firewalls/APs
  • Experience designing or deploying server environments

Bonus points if you have worked in an MSP or fast-paced service environment and have experience with RMM/PSA tools commonly used in MSP environments.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You…

You’re comfortable owning issues end-to-end, communicating progress along the way, and jumping in without waiting to be asked. That mindset is key—but it’s just the start. You’ll also thrive if you:

  • Take ownership of your work and follow through.
  • Communicate clearly—whether by email, in person, or emoji.
  • Like solving real problems and don’t panic under pressure.
  • Stay curious and always push to level up your skills.
  • Manage your time and tasks without being micromanaged.
  • Respect documentation, even if it’s not your favorite part of the job.
  • Enjoy helping others and making tech feel less intimidating.

Education & Experience? We’re Flexible

Maybe you’ve got a degree in Network Admin. Maybe you’ve been a sysadmin for 8 years. Maybe you’ve just been solving complex tech issues since high school. If you are confident in your skills and can contribute to our team, we want to talk.

What You Get

We take care of our people—because happy humans build better tech.

  • 3 weeks of PTO, right out of the gate
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Life insurance and short-term disability
  • Flexible scheduling and work-life balance (seriously)
  • A team that actually likes working together
  • Support to grow—technically, professionally, and personally
  • Occasional dad jokes. Unlimited coffee. Probably too many snacks.

You’ve made it to the bottom—If you’re nodding along and thinking, “Yep, that’s me,” then we want to hear from you.

Ready to apply? Submit your resume and a quick note, and tell us why you’d be a great fit.

HawkPoint provides a fair and equal employment opportunity for all associates and job applicants regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status or disability and we welcome applications from any/all suitably qualified candidates.
