Burke, VA $90,000

Interview Notes: Synopsis & Findings

This candidate is a Senior IT Specialist with 15+ years of MSP experience, serving as the final escalation point and overseeing the full client base at his current MSP. Supporting 40+ direct clients and hundreds of distributed locations, he divides his work between backend system administration, complex troubleshooting, procedure development, and hands-on project execution—including Azure and M365 migrations, hybrid identity configurations, Intune deployments, and large-scale server virtualization across VMware, Hyper-V, and Oracle environments. He brings extensive networking experience with Meraki (15+ years), Fortinet, and other enterprise firewalls, along with deep cloud infrastructure skills across Azure (VM builds, Entra ID, hybrid setups) and AWS (EC2, site deployments). With his organization shifting heavily toward government clients, this candidate is looking to remain in the commercial space. He is targeting remote or hybrid (NoVA-only) roles focused on technical depth, system administration, or senior-level MSP engineering.
