Additional Facts About Work with Us

Fulltime Jobs for Network Engineers, Computer Service Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Remote Support Technicians
Progent wants to find fulltime, solutions-driven Microsoft accredited engineers with Microsoft MCSE certification; Cisco certified network engineers with CCIE certification; security professionals with CISM or comparable security credentials; and advanced network design experts with experience in mobile solutions, wireless networking, high uptime, disaster recovery, data preservation, and server virtualization. Progent also is looking for employees who can join our staff of desktop support specialists and off-site troubleshooting professionals. Also, We are hiring talented administrators able to operate effectively in Progent's high-growth, virtual office environment.

By maintaining a team of skilled and motivated consultants, delivering world-class customer services, and offering a competitive value-focused fee model, We have managed to expand our client list rapidly while delivering consulting services to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and across the United States. An advanced virtual office environment, a shared knowledge base, and a group strategy for problem resolution have helped Progent to maintain a skilled consulting team and a loyal client base.

If you are an information technology professional with technical support experience, joining Progent or helping our clients can expand your skills via cooperation with Progent's group of mutually team-oriented, expert consultants. Progent's commitment to providing information technology expertise and technical support to small and midsize organizations will offer you the opportunity to work intimately with key players and add appreciably to the success of dynamic businesses.

Progent is looking for technical professionals who can show recognized certification in their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you should have earned your Microsoft MCSE certificate. For Cisco experts, show us your CCIE or Cisco Certified Network Professional certificate. For network security, you should show you CISSP, CISA, CISM, or one of the other leading security certifications. Of course, we are aware of “paper MCSEs.” Still, the fact that a credential does not ensure excellence is no justification for not having one. If you know your stuff, then most of these certifications should present no challenge. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then customers expect credentials. We can broadcast your talents, but you should provide a baseline of certifications for Progent to work with. In case you are adamantly against the idea of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and respect your opinion, but you are likely not an appropriate fit.

Consultants don’t throw away time or forfeit revenue with regular commutes to a conventional office, and any travel you do for in-person customer jobs is determined by your own schedule, not ours. The best part is that most of our consulting services can be done remotely, representing maximum productivity for billable time. In fact, some of our staff do remote consulting only.

Progent's operations are set up for responding quickly and effectively to customer requirements through information exchange and cooperative problem resolution. Although our consultants work with a high level of freedom, dispatching is centralized, client problems and resolutions are meticulously monitored, recorded, and archived for easy reference, current engineer schedules are published to streamline group projects and enable problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is continually monitored.

Creative projects, advanced implementations, puzzling or entrenched problems, and difficult upgrades are the basis for what we do every day. With us, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is all too common for network professionals in traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day excited about the opportunities ahead.

On the way, you will meet some great people, both by building strong customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success.
