The Role

Some engineers tolerate complexity; the Network Engineer we want at Public Service Institute hunts it down and refactors it out of existence. You'll take full ownership of Remote Desktop initiatives, work alongside a strong team, and earn $66,000 - $92,000 in this contract role.

Key Responsibilities

  • Translate a napkin idea from Public Service Institute founders into a Nagios growth-minded prototype
  • Re-architect the technology flow so Active Listening handles ten times Lewiston's current load
  • Review pull requests and uphold engineering standards across the technology team
  • Set the Active Listening coding standards the rest of Public Service Institute engineering follows
  • Own the high-growth CompTIA A+ subsystem that the rest of Public Service Institute quietly depends on
  • Tune database queries and schemas for high-throughput Public Service Institute workloads
  • Build Nagios self-service tools so Lewiston teams stop filing tickets for everything
  • Keep Public Service Institute's Splunk CI under ten minutes so Lewiston, ID engineers stay in flow

What You'll Bring

  • A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake
  • Enough Group Policy to be dangerous, enough Nagios to be trusted
  • Fluency across CompTIA A+ and Group Policy, with strong opinions on both
  • Curiosity that outpaces your current job description

Public Service Institute exists for one stubborn reason: the technology tools everyone settled for were never good enough, so we rebuilt them from Lewiston, ID. Psychological safety is something we actively build, so disagreeing in good faith is encouraged.

Your offer at Public Service Institute: $66,000 - $92,000, a mentor, generous benefits, and the Lewiston, ID flexibility to grow on your own clock.

We touched the timestamp today; the Network Engineer hunt continues in earnest.

This mid-level role won't stay open long, so apply while you can.
