Staff Jobs for Network Engineers, Computer Service Technicians,
Security Experts, and Remote Help Professionals
Progent wants to hire fulltime, results-oriented Microsoft accredited engineers with Microsoft MCSE credentials; Cisco accredited system engineers who have Cisco CCIE or CCNP credentials; security consultants with CISM or comparable security credentials; and advanced network architecture consultants with a background in mobile solutions, wireless networking, high uptime, workplace recovery, information protection, and VMware.

In addition, Progent is seeking experienced managers who can perform productively in our high-growth, virtual office culture.

By supporting a team of talented and dedicated consultants, providing attentive client care, and offering a competitive value-based pricing model, We have been able to increase our client list rapidly while delivering professional support to hundreds of companies in the San Francisco area and across the U.S. An advanced virtual office environment, a common knowledge database, and a team strategy for problem solving have allowed Progent to maintain a talented staff and a satisfied client base.

Our commitment to providing network consulting and technical support to small and midsize organizations will give you the opportunity to collaborate closely with key players and add significantly to the success of exciting companies.

We are looking for consultants who can show recognized certification related to their technical focus. For example, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have earned your MCSE certificate.

For network security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, Certified Information Security Manager, or one of the other top security credentials. Naturally, Progent is aware of “paper MCSEs.” However, the fact that a credential does not ensure expertise is no justification for not owning one. If you have mastered your stuff, then most of those tests should be no challenge. The point is that if you are a professional, then customers expect credentials. Progent can market your talents, but you need to have standard credentials for us to market. In case you are strongly opposed to the idea of credentials, we can understand and honor your opinion, but you are probably not a good fit.

Enhance Your Skills with Advanced Technology and
Working with a Great Team of Network Engineers
Progent's work environment will allow you to become a better professional by enhancing your technical skills and increasing the loyalty of your clients. Progent makes good on this promise by attracting the top professional experts for you to operate with, offering a state-of-the-art system architecture, running proprietary application utilities to enable the maximum level of support, and by optimizing proven operational structures for finding and retaining customers.

The most important factor that distinguishes us from other network support companies is the quality of our service staff. Among the 50 or so consultants who have joined us, we have assembled top talent covering a broad array of technologies. Be it Microsoft servers, Cisco firewalls, network security, Macintosh, Linux, server virtualization, or other vital technologies, we engage experts who can help you to be successful on major projects by leveraging the collective experience of our team of professionals.

To promote the productivity of our consultants, we invest heavily in making available the best tools to perform the job properly. Progent will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure allows effortless connectivity, collaboration, and knowledge sharing with other Progent consultants — entirely from at-home or mobile offices. You don’t waste time or forfeit revenue because of daily commutes to a conventional office, and any driving you do for in-person client work is determined by your own time table, not Progent's. The best part is that most of Progent's consulting services can be performed remotely, representing maximum efficiency for income-producing time. In fact, some Progent staff do off-site support only.

Our operations are set up for responding rapidly and efficiently to customer requirements through knowledge sharing and cooperative problem resolution. Although our engineers operate with a great deal of independence, resource allocation is centralized, client problems and solutions are meticulously tracked, documented, and archived for easy reference, up-to-date consultant availability is published to streamline group projects and simplify problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is continually evaluated. We reinforce the feeling of cooperation through monthly workgroup conferences and quarterly corporate events.

Most of Progent's consultants are situated across California, however Progent is attracting a rapidly growing group of network professionals throughout the U.S. Progent's virtual office environment does away with geographic boundaries that limit the efficiency of conventional company models. We complete the package by providing a comprehensive employee care program to ensure the health and financial security of our team members and their relations.

Just as we have world-class consultants, Progent's marketing and administration teams live up to the excellence that is Progent. These high-performance contributors to Progent’s success are enabling us to identify and land the 50-60 new customers we are now engaging each month. We lately celebrated 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 an effective sales organization.

Having a commitment to technical excellence is a key for growth with us. A job in consulting will drive you to enhance your skills more than you would in any other position in network technology. Being exposed to a continual series of network challenges is what keeps consulting interesting. Customers choose consultants to do the “hard stuff.” Innovative projects, advanced deployments, puzzling or chronic problems, and difficult migrations are the basis for our services every day. With us, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is all too common for network professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will wake up every morning enthusiastic about the challenges ahead.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful people, both by establishing close customer contacts and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their growth. Of course, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-oriented organization heart and soul. If you don’t offer excellent people skills or enjoy cooperating with a varied assortment of personalities, then we are in all likelihood not a good match.

If this sounds right for you, we urge you to contact Progent about our view of the future of information technology consulting.
