Job details
A growing financial services organization in North Dallas, TX is seeking a full-time Systems Administrator to support and evolve a Microsoft-centric infrastructure environment. This role sits within a small, stable IT team and focuses on Windows Server, VMware, M365, Intune, and a managed networking platform. The environment is primarily on-prem with selective cloud adoption, offering a strong mix of traditional infrastructure and modern tooling.
This opportunity is ideal for someone who wants to take true ownership of an environment rather than just maintain it. The team is looking for a technically curious, proactive engineer who understands how systems connect across the organization and is motivated to improve them. You’ll operate as a technical lead and escalation point, with the autonomy to identify gaps, implement solutions, and influence long-term direction. The culture is collaborative, stable, and less rigid than larger financial institutions, with strong tenure across the team and a clear path for growth into senior leadership.
This role will require someone to work onsite 5 days a week in North Dallas.
Required Skills & Experience
- 4+ years of experience in systems administration, infrastructure support, or network operations
- Strong experience administering VMware environments
- Hands-on experience with Windows Server, including Active Directory and Group Policy
- Experience working in hybrid environments with M365 exposure
- Ability to troubleshoot across servers, applications, and infrastructure systems
- Experience supporting endpoint environments, ideally with Intune or similar tools
- Strong ticketing system experience with an L3 troubleshooting mindset
- Foundational networking knowledge, including routing concepts and segmentation
- Exposure to endpoint security tools such as Defender or SentinelOne
Desired Skills & Experience
- Exposure to SQL Server environments, including job monitoring and troubleshooting
- Experience working in regulated industries such as financial services or healthcare
- Familiarity with automation and orchestration tools such as Power Automate or similar platforms
- Understanding of data workflows, ETL processes, or data pipeline environments
- Exposure to compliance and security tools such as Microsoft Purview
- Experience with hyperconverged infrastructure, particularly HPE SimpliVity
- Comfort supporting physical infrastructure, including racking and stacking hardware
- Strong documentation and process improvement mindset
