Who We Are
Founded in 2002, SPN Networks has grown steadily by nurturing strong, long-term client relationships. We operate with an open-door policy, value collaboration, and maintain a supportive team culture where everyone can contribute and grow. We invest in our people, celebrate wins together, and provide an environment where motivated engineers can continue developing their skills.
We are actively evolving into an AI-first MSP - leveraging automation, intelligent tooling, and modern workflows to improve the way we deliver services and support our clients. If you’re excited about using technology to solve problems, improve processes, and support clients well, you’ll fit right in here.
The Role
As our Senior Service Desk Escalations Engineer, you’ll serve as an escalation resource for the service desk team, helping resolve issues that require more experience than Tier 1 or Tier 2 support. This role is primarily focused on service desk escalations, client support, troubleshooting, ticket ownership, and documentation, with additional support provided to the project team as needed.
This is a hands-on technical role for someone who enjoys solving problems, supporting multiple client environments, and helping the team deliver consistent, high-quality service. Prior experience working in an MSP setting is required.
What You'll Do
Service Desk & Escalations
This is the core of the role. You’ll be an active member of the service desk team and will help resolve escalated client issues, including:
- Serve as the Tier 3 escalation point for complex incidents across servers, networking, cloud, and security
- Troubleshoot and resolve high-impact issues across multi-client environments: outages, performance degradation, and security incidents
- Mentor and coach junior engineers — review escalated tickets, share knowledge, and help raise the technical bar across the team
- Travel to client sites across the local area for on-site support and project delivery
- Document troubleshooting steps, resolutions, client environment details, and recurring issues clearly and consistently
- Maintain and update IT Glue documentation, runbooks, SOPs, and client environment notes
- Track time accurately and maintain clean ticket notes in the PSA
Project Team Support
This role will assist the Project Team as needed, but it is not designed to serve as the primary project engineering position. Project-related support may include:
- Assisting with project tasks such as workstation/server setup, Microsoft 365 changes, user migrations, network changes, and client deployments
- Supporting Azure, Microsoft 365, Windows Server, firewall, backup, and endpoint-related project work under the direction of the project team
- Helping validate project work, perform follow-up troubleshooting, and ensure client environments are properly documented
- Providing feedback from recurring service desk issues that may help improve project planning or client standards
What You'll Bring
Required:
- 5+ years of technical support experience in a managed service provider (MSP) environment
- CompTIA Network+ and Security+ Certifications
- AZ-104 Microsoft Certification
- Comfortable supporting multiple client environments simultaneously
- Strong Microsoft support experience, including Windows Server, Active Directory, Group Policy, Exchange, and Microsoft 365 administration
- Working Azure administration and troubleshooting experience
- Solid networking fundamentals, including VLANs, VPNs, routing, switching, wireless, and firewall troubleshooting
- Experience with firewall platforms such as SonicWall, Fortinet, Cisco, or similar
- Experience with RMM tools such as Datto RMM, Addigy, or similar
- Experience with PSA/ticketing systems such as Autotask, including accurate time tracking and documentation
- Experience supporting backup and disaster recovery tools such as Datto, Veeam, CloudAlly, or similar
Preferred:
- Virtualization experience with Hyper-V and/or VMware
- Basic PowerShell scripting for administration or automation
- Experience with endpoint security, EDR/antivirus, zero-trust, or related cybersecurity tools
- Experience assisting with Microsoft 365 migrations, server refreshes, network upgrades, or other infrastructure projects
Working Conditions
- On-site role at our Santa Fe Springs office
- Travel to client sites in surrounding areas for on-site support may be required
- Occasional after-hours or on-call support may be required for critical issues
- Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation required
