Job Title: Network Administrator (Cybersecurity-Focused)

Location: Southfield, MI
Employment Type: Full-Time, On-Site

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Network Administrator with strong cybersecurity expertise to design, secure, and support our enterprise network infrastructure. This role is critical to protecting organizational data, ensuring network reliability, and proactively defending against cyber threats.

This is a hands-on, engineering-focused role—not a policy-only or compliance-only position. The ideal candidate must be comfortable troubleshooting firewalls, VPN tunnels, routing issues, and real-time security events in production environments.

This role will also support and optimize our Rapid7 (InsightIDR) platform, including agent deployment, log ingestion, alert investigation, and integration with network and endpoint systems.

Key Responsibilities

Network Infrastructure & Operations

• Design, deploy, monitor, and maintain LAN, WAN, VPN, wireless, and cloud-connected networks
• Ensure performance, scalability, uptime, and security
• Troubleshoot complex issues and lead root-cause analysis

Cybersecurity & Risk Management

• Act as a frontline defender against cyber threats
• Implement security controls (IDS/IPS, segmentation, zero-trust)
• Investigate threats using logs from firewalls, endpoints, and SIEM tools
• Identify and remediate issues like brute force attacks, VPN abuse, and DNS anomalies

Firewall & WatchGuard Administration

• Own firewall architecture and policy design
• Configure and manage WatchGuard firewalls
• Troubleshoot site-to-site VPN issues (e.g., Phase 1 up / Phase 2 down)

SIEM / Rapid7 Operations

• Deploy and manage Rapid7 Insight Agent (via GPO, scripts, or RMM)
• Maintain log ingestion from AD, servers, firewalls, and endpoints
• Investigate alerts and tune detections in InsightIDR

What You Bring

Experience

• 3–5+ years of hands-on network and security experience
• Strong experience with firewalls, VPNs, and real-time troubleshooting

Technical Skills

• Solid knowledge of TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, routing, and VPNs
• Experience with SIEM tools (Rapid7 preferred)
• Familiarity with Active Directory and endpoint security

Certifications

• WatchGuard experience strongly preferred (certification a plus)
• Preferred: Security+, Network+, CCNA, or similar

Core Competencies

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Ability to work independently in high-pressure environments
• Detail-oriented with a strong security-first mindset
• Clear communication and cross-team collaboration
