Details About Jobs with Us

Fulltime Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Specialists,
Security Experts, and Remote Support Professionals
Progent is seeking to hire staff-level, results-oriented Microsoft certified engineers with MCSE or MCP credentials; Cisco accredited network engineers who have Cisco CCIE, CCNP, or CCNA certification; security consultants who have CISA or equivalent security certification; and advanced system architecture experts with a background in mobile solutions, wireless connectivity, high uptime, disaster recovery, information preservation, and VMware. Progent also seeks professionals to join Progent's team of helpdesk service technicians and remote troubleshooting professionals. In addition, Progent is hiring experienced administrators able to perform productively in our high-growth, virtual office culture.

By maintaining a staff of talented and motivated consultants, providing attentive customer care, and offering a competitive value-based fee structure, We have been able to expand our customer base dramatically while delivering consulting support to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. A sophisticated virtual office network, a common information database, and a team strategy for problem resolution have allowed Progent to retain a talented staff and a satisfied customer list.

Our commitment to delivering network expertise and technical help to small and midsize companies will offer you the opportunity to collaborate intimately with key players and add significantly to the success of exciting businesses.

We are looking for technical professionals that have verifiable certification in their technical expertise. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you should have your MCSE certificate. In the case of Cisco consultants, show us your CCIE or CCNP credential. For security, you should have earned you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or other top security certifications. Of course, we are aware of “paper MCSEs.” However, simply because a certificate does not guarantee expertise is no justification for not owning one. If you know your stuff, then the majority of those tests should be no great difficulty. The point is that if you call yourself a professional, then clients deserve to see certifications. Progent can market your skills, but you should have standard certifications for Progent to market. If you stand strongly opposed to the concept of credentials, Progent can understand and respect your position, but you are likely not an appropriate fit.

Enhance Your Abilities with Advanced Technology and
Working with a Great Group of Network Consultants
Progent's business climate will allow you to become a better professional by improving your technical skills and increasing the loyalty of your customers. Progent makes good on this promise by recruiting the best professional talent for you to operate with, providing a state-of-the-art system infrastructure, using proprietary software utilities to enable the highest level of support, and by optimizing our operational structures for attracting and retaining clients.

The main factor that separates Progent from other consulting companies is the high quality of our consultants.

Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Apple, Linux, VMware, or other crucial areas, we deploy experts who can help you to be successful on major projects by combining the aggregate skills of our team of professionals.

To promote the productivity of our consultants, we invest significantly in providing the most powerful tools to perform the job properly. We will leverage information technology to an impressive degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure enables effortless communications, collaboration, and information sharing with fellow Progent consultants — all from at-home or on-the-road offices. You don’t waste time or forfeit revenue with daily drives to a conventional office, and all travel you do for on-site client work is based on your schedule, not ours. The best part is that most of Progent's support work can be done off-site, offering maximum productivity for income-producing time. In practice, some Progent staff do remote support only.

Progent's business structure is set up for responding quickly and efficiently to client requirements via information sharing and collaborative problem solving. Even though our engineers work with a great deal of independence, resource allocation is centralized, client problems and solutions are meticulously monitored, recorded, and archived for convenient reference, up-to-date consultant availability is broadcast to facilitate group tasks and enable problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is always evaluated. We reinforce the feeling of connection via periodic workgroup meetings and regular company-wide events.

The majority of Progent's team is situated throughout California, but Progent is building a rapidly growing team of consulting professionals throughout the United States. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates geographic boundaries that limit the productivity of traditional business structures. We complete the package by providing a full benefit program to ensure the physical health and economic security of our team members and their families.

Just as we have world-class consultants, our sales and operations teams live up to the excellence that is Progent. These top-notch contributors to our success are helping us to target and sign up the 50-60 new customers we are now acquiring every month. We lately celebrated the providing of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why Progent is also an effective sales operation.

Having a commitment to technical proficiency is a key for success 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 confronted by a steady stream of network challenges is what makes consulting interesting. Customers rely on consulting firms to do the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, leading-edge deployments, puzzling or entrenched problems, and difficult migrations are the basis for our services every day. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is all too typical for network professionals in traditional corporate roles. You will awake every morning excited about the opportunities to come.

Along the way, you will work with some great folks, both by establishing close client relationships and by working closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success. Of course, technology is vital, but we are a relationship-focused company through and through. If you don’t offer strong communications skills or enjoy working with a varied assortment of people, then we are in all likelihood not a good match.

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