Fulltime Work for Network Engineers, Desktop Support Technicians,
Security Experts, and Online Help Technicians
Progent is seeking to find staff-level, results-oriented Microsoft certified engineers with Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certification; Cisco certified system engineers with Cisco CCIE certification; security consultants who have CISA or equivalent security certification; and high-end system design consultants with a background in mobile solutions, wireless connectivity, service continuity, workplace recovery, information protection, and VMware. Progent also is looking for professionals to work on our team of desktop support specialists and off-site support professionals. In addition, We are seeking talented administrators able to operate effectively in our high-growth, virtual office culture.

By supporting a team of talented and dedicated professionals, delivering attentive customer care, and following a competitive results-based fee structure, Progent has been able to expand our customer base dramatically while delivering professional support to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. An advanced virtual office network, a common information database, and a team approach to problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a talented consulting team and a loyal client list.

For an information technology consultant with troubleshooting experience, joining Progent or helping Progent's clients will enhance your skills through cooperation with our staff of mutually supportive, talented engineers. Our focus on delivering network expertise and computer support to small and midsize companies will offer you the opportunity to collaborate intimately with decision makers and contribute appreciably to the growth of dynamic companies.

We are hiring technical professionals who can show recognized credentials related to their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft expert, you must have your Microsoft MCSE credential. In the case of Cisco consultants, show us your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or Cisco Certified Network Professional certificate. For security, you should show you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or other top security credentials. Naturally, we are familiar with “paper MCSEs.” Nevertheless, the fact that a credential can not guarantee expertise is no justification for not having one. If you have mastered your field, then most of those tests should present no challenge. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then clients deserve to see certifications. We can market your skills, but you should provide standard certifications for us to work with. In case you happen to be adamantly opposed to the idea of credentials, we can sympathize with and honor your position, but you are likely not an appropriate candidate.

Enhance Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Joining the Top Team of Computer Engineers
Progent's work environment will make you a better consultant by enhancing your technical knowledge and boosting the satisfaction of your clients. Progent delivers on this commitment by attracting the top consulting experts for you to operate with, offering a state-of-the-art system infrastructure, running proprietary software tools to enable the maximum level of support, and by optimizing our business models for attracting and maintaining customers.

The most important factor that separates Progent from most consulting firms is the excellence of our consulting team. Among the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have recruited top talent across a broad array of technologies. Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, server virtualization, or other key application, we engage professionals who can enable you to be successful on larger projects by combining the aggregate experience of Progent's team of professionals.

To ensure the success of our consultants, we invest significantly in making available the best technology to do the work efficiently. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure enables effortless communications, cooperation, and information sharing with other Progent team members — all from at-home or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit revenue with regular commutes to a physical office building, and any travel you do for on-site client work is determined by your own time table, not ours. The best part is that much of Progent's consulting services can be performed off-site, representing 100% efficiency for billable hours. In fact, some of our team members do off-site support exclusively.

Our business structure is set up for responding rapidly and effectively to client requirements through knowledge exchange and collaborative problem solving. Even though our engineers work with a great deal of freedom, resource allocation is unified, customer problems and solutions are meticulously tracked, documented, and organized for easy retrieval, up-to-date consultant schedules are broadcast to streamline team projects and simplify problem escalation, and client approval is continually evaluated. We reinforce the feeling of connection via monthly team meetings and quarterly corporate events.

Most of our consultants are located throughout California, but we are building a quickly expanding team of network experts throughout America. Progent's virtual office environment does away with regional boundaries that limit the efficiency of traditional business models. We complete the deal by offering a full benefit program to promote the health and financial welfare of our team members and their relations.

Not only do we have world-class consulting professionals, our sales and administration teams live up to the high standards that is Progent. These top-notch contributors to Progent’s growth are helping us to target and sign up the 50-60 new clients we are now engaging each month. We recently marked the providing of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why we are also a strong sales organization.

Having a passion for technical proficiency is a cornerstone for growth with Progent. A career in consulting will push you to learn more than you would in any other position in network technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps consulting exciting. Clients choose a consultant to perform the toughest jobs. Creative projects, advanced deployments, puzzling or entrenched problems, and difficult migrations are the foundation for our services every day. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be narrowly defined, as is sadly common for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will awake every day excited about the challenges ahead.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building close client relationships and by operating closely with other Progent consultants, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success. Yes, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-focused organization from top to bottom. If you do not offer strong people skills or like working with a diverse assortment of personalities, then we are probably not a good match.

If this seems good to you, we urge you to talk to Progent about our view of the new paradigm of network consulting.

Enjoy Quality of Life Improvements and Professional Success with
Our Advanced Virtual Office Environment
Progent is convinced that a well designed and implemented network is a pivotal piece for accelerating a company's growth, and we follow this philosophy in our corporate network infrastructure.
