Staff Jobs for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Remote Help Professionals
Progent is seeking to hire fulltime, solutions-oriented Microsoft certified consultants with Microsoft MCSE, MCSA, or MCP certification; Cisco certified system engineers with Cisco CCIE or CCNP credentials; security professionals with CISSP or equivalent security certification; and advanced system design experts with experience in mobile access, wireless networking, fault tolerance, disaster recovery, data preservation, and server virtualization. Progent also is hiring employees who can work on Progent's team of desktop support specialists and remote troubleshooting professionals. In addition, We are hiring talented administrators who can operate productively in our fast-paced, virtual office culture.

By maintaining a team of talented and motivated professionals, delivering attentive customer care, and offering a competitive results-based fee model, Progent has managed to increase our customer base rapidly while providing professional support to hundreds of businesses in the San Francisco area and across the U.S. An advanced virtual office network, a shared knowledge base, and a group approach to problem resolution have allowed Progent to maintain a skilled staff and a loyal customer list.

For an information technology professional with troubleshooting expertise, teaming with Progent or working for our clients can enhance your knowledge via cooperation with our group of mutually team-oriented, talented engineers. Our focus on providing information technology expertise and computer help to small and midsize organizations will offer you the opportunity to collaborate closely with key players and contribute appreciably to the growth of dynamic businesses.

Progent is hiring technical professionals that can show verifiable credentials related to their technical expertise. For example, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft MCSE certificate. For Cisco experts, have your CCIE or Cisco Certified Network Professional credential. For network security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or one of the other leading security certifications. Naturally, Progent is aware of "paper experts". Notwithstanding, the fact that a certificate can not ensure expertise is no excuse for not having one. If you know your stuff, then most of those certifications should pose no challenge. The crux of the matter is that if you call yourself an expert, then clients expect certifications. Progent will promote your skills, but you should provide a baseline of credentials for us to market. In case you stand adamantly opposed to the idea of certifications, Progent can sympathize with and honor your opinion, but you are probably not a good candidate.

Progent delivers on this promise by attracting the top consulting experts for you to work with, offering an advanced system infrastructure, running proprietary application utilities to deliver the maximum level of service, and by optimizing proven operational structures for finding and retaining clients.

The main factor that separates Progent from typical network support firms is the excellence of our consultants.

Be it Microsoft servers, Cisco firewalls, network security, Apple, Linux, server virtualization, or other crucial application, we engage professionals who can help you to be effective on major projects by combining the aggregate skills of Progent's team of experts.

To ensure the success of Progent's consultants, we invest significantly in providing the best technology to do the job properly. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment enables effortless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge sharing with other Progent team members — all from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit income with daily commutes to a conventional office building, and any travel you do for on-site client work is based on your own time table, not ours. The most attractive benefit is that most of Progent's consulting services can be done off-site, representing 100% productivity for billable hours. In practice, some Progent staff do remote support exclusively.

Our business structure is set up for responding quickly and effectively to client needs via knowledge exchange and collaborative problem resolution. Although our consultants work with a high level of independence, resource allocation is unified, client issues and resolutions are carefully monitored, recorded, and organized for easy reference, up-to-date consultant schedules are published to streamline group tasks and simplify problem escalation, and customer approval is continually evaluated. We strengthen the sense of cooperation via monthly workgroup meetings and quarterly corporate events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are situated across California, however Progent is attracting a rapidly expanding group of network experts throughout America. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates regional boundaries that limit the productivity of conventional business structures. We enhance the package by providing a comprehensive employee care plan to promote the physical health and financial security of our employees and their relations.

Just as we have awesome consulting professionals, our sales and operations teams match the high standards that is Progent. These top-notch factors behind Progent’s growth are helping us to target and sign up the 50-60 new clients we are currently acquiring every month. We lately celebrated the providing of support to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why we are also a strong sales operation.

Having a commitment to technical proficiency is a cornerstone for success with Progent. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than is possible in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps consulting exciting. Customers rely on a consultant to do the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, leading-edge implementations, puzzling or chronic issues, and difficult upgrades are the basis for our services daily. With us, you will not stagnate or be narrowly defined, as is all too typical for network engineers in traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day excited about the opportunities ahead.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building close customer relationships and by working closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success. Of course, technology is important, but we are a relationship-oriented company from top to bottom. If you don’t have excellent communications skills or enjoy working with a varied assortment of personalities, then we are in all likelihood a poor match.

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