Fulltime Jobs for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Technicians,
Security Experts, and Online Support Professionals
Progent is seeking to find full-time, solutions-oriented Microsoft certified engineers with Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credentials; Cisco certified system engineers who have Cisco CCIE certification; security professionals with CISSP or equivalent security certification; and high-end system design consultants with experience in mobile solutions, wireless networking, high availability, disaster recovery, information preservation, and virtual servers. Progent also is hiring professionals who can join Progent's staff of desktop service specialists and remote support experts. Also, Progent is looking for talented administrators able to perform productively in our fast-paced, virtual office environment.

By maintaining a team of skilled and motivated consultants, delivering world-class customer care, and following a competitive value-based fee model, We have managed to increase our customer list dramatically while providing consulting services to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the United States. An advanced virtual office environment, a common knowledge database, and a team approach to problem solving have helped Progent to retain a talented consulting team and a satisfied client base.

For an information technology consultant with technical support experience, joining Progent or working for our clients will expand your knowledge via interaction with Progent's staff of highly team-oriented, expert engineers. Progent's commitment to providing network expertise and technical help to small and midsize companies will give you the chance to work intimately with key players and contribute significantly to the growth of exciting companies.

We are looking for consultants who can show verifiable credentials related to their technical expertise. For example, if you are a Microsoft expert, you must have your Microsoft MCSE credential. In the case of Cisco consultants, have your CCIE or Cisco Certified Network Professional certificate. For security, you should show you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or one of the other top security credentials. Naturally, Progent is familiar with "paper experts". Nevertheless, simply because a credential can not guarantee expertise is no excuse for not owning one. If you have mastered your stuff, then the majority of those certifications should pose no challenge. The point is that if you call yourself an expert, then clients expect certifications. We can broadcast your talents, but you should have standard credentials for Progent to work with. In case you happen to be adamantly against the concept of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and respect your opinion, but you are likely not an appropriate candidate.

Contract Jobs for Qualified Experts for

    Enhance Your Skills with the Best Technology and
    Joining the Top Group of Computer Engineers
    Progent's productive atmosphere will allow you to become a more capable consultant by enhancing your technical knowledge and increasing the loyalty of your clients. Progent makes good on this commitment by recruiting the best consulting talent for you to work with, providing a state-of-the-art network and communications infrastructure, running custom software tools to deliver the maximum quality of service, and by optimizing proven business structures for finding and keeping clients.

    The most important factor that distinguishes us from most consulting companies is the high caliber of our service staff. Out of the scores of consulting experts who have teamed with us, we have assembled top talent across a broad range of technical areas. Be it Microsoft servers, Cisco firewalls, network security, Macintosh, Linux, server virtualization, or other crucial technologies, we deploy experts who can enable you to be successful on major jobs by leveraging the collective experience of our group of professionals.

    To ensure the success of our team, we invest significantly in providing the best tools to do the job properly. Progent will exploit information technology to an impressive extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows effortless connectivity, collaboration, and information sharing with other Progent consultants — all from home-based or mobile offices. You don’t throw away time or lose income because of regular drives to a physical office, and all travel you do for in-person customer work is determined by your time table, not ours. The most attractive part is that most of our consulting services can be done off-site, representing maximum productivity for income-producing hours. In practice, some Progent staff do off-site support exclusively.

    Progent's operations are geared towards responding quickly and effectively to customer requirements through knowledge exchange and cooperative problem solving. Although our consultants work with a high level of freedom, dispatching is centralized, client issues and resolutions are carefully monitored, recorded, and organized for convenient retrieval, up-to-date consultant availability is published to facilitate group projects and simplify trouble escalation, and customer approval is always evaluated. We reinforce the sense of connection through periodic team meetings and regular corporate events.

    The majority of our consultants are situated throughout California, however Progent is building a rapidly expanding group of consulting experts from across America. Our virtual office infrastructure does away with regional boundaries that limit the productivity of conventional business structures. We complete the package by providing a comprehensive employee care program to promote the health and economic security of our employees and their families.

    Not only do we have world-class consulting professionals, our sales and administration teams live up to the excellence that defines Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent’s success are enabling us to identify and land the scores of new customers we are currently engaging every month. Progent lately celebrated the delivery of services to our 1,000th client. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why Progent is also an effective marketing operation.

    Having a passion for technical proficiency is a cornerstone for growth with Progent. A job in consulting will push you to enhance your skills more than you would in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of network challenges is what makes professional support interesting. Customers rely on consultants to do the “hard stuff.” Creative projects, advanced deployments, vexing or entrenched problems, and difficult upgrades are the foundation for what we do every day. With us, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is sadly common for network engineers in ordinary corporate jobs. You will awake every morning enthusiastic about the challenges to come.

    Along the way, you will meet some wonderful people, both by building close client relationships and by working closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success. Yes, technology is vital, but we are a relationship-focused company from top to bottom. If you don’t offer strong people skills or like cooperating with a varied group of personalities, then Progent is probably not a good match.

    If all this sounds good to you, we urge you to talk to us about our view of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.

    Enjoy Lifestyle Improvements and Professional Success with
    Progent's Sophisticated Virtual Office Infrastructure
    Progent believes that a carefully architected and implemented network is a crucial piece for accelerating a company's success, and Progent follows this belief in our own system infrastructure.
