Your role in the team

  • As a Senior IT Systems Engineer and Technical Team Lead, you are the central technical contact at FISCHMANN.IT.
  • You are responsible for complex customer environments as the final escalation point, leading our 2nd-Level team professionally and working closely with executive management.
  • You are not just an implementer – you think along, recognize problems before they escalate, and actively shape our services.
  • Final escalation level for all customer environments - anything not resolved by the 2nd-level team lands with you.
  • Planning and execution of infrastructure projects: migrations, new setups, security hardening.
  • Management of complex Microsoft 365 environments (Entra ID, Intune, Exchange Online, Conditional Access).
  • Administration of firewalls (Sophos, WatchGuard), networks (UniFi), virtualization (Proxmox).
  • Proactive analysis of customer environments - identifying vulnerabilities before they become tickets.
  • Monitoring and optimizing system performance via NinjaOne (RMM).
  • Technical leadership of the 2nd-level team.
  • Development and maintenance of standards: escalation paths, runbooks, checklists.
  • Ensuring the quality of documentation in our KB.
  • Technical onboarding and further development of team members.
  • Technical consulting for executive management on customer proposals and investment decisions.
  • Evaluation of new technologies and further development of our service stack.
  • Participation in the automation of internal processes.

  • Good English skills for technical documentation.
  • Linux administration (Ubuntu Server, Bash scripting).
  • PowerShell scripting for automation and deployment.
  • Certifications in the fields of Microsoft, Sophos, or network technology.
  • Interest in AI-powered workflows and automation - we actively operate local LLM infrastructure and are looking for someone who finds this exciting, not alienating.

Experience

  • At least 5 years of professional experience in IT system administration, ideally including 2+ years in an MSP or system house environment.
  • Experience with virtualization (Proxmox, Hyper-V, or VMware).
  • Experience with Sophos Firewalls and Sophos Central.
  • Experience with MSP tools such as NinjaOne, TANSS, or comparable.

What we offer
