IT Support Engineer

In-Office Position (Troy, MI) — Providing Remote Support to Our Clients

This is not a field or on-site client visit role. You'll be based in our Troy office every day, supporting clients remotely via phone, ticketing, and remote access tools.

ABOUT BAE NETWORKS

BAE Networks is a managed IT and network services provider based in Troy, Michigan. We partner with businesses across the region to build, manage, and support their technology infrastructure. Our team is collaborative by nature; we rely on each other, communicate openly, and take shared ownership of the work we deliver to our clients.

THE ROLE

As an IT Support Engineer, you'll be the voice our clients hear when something needs fixing. Working from our Troy office, you'll provide remote support resolving tickets, troubleshooting issues over the phone and through remote access tools, and keeping client environments running smoothly. The technical work matters, but the client experience is shaped by the way you communicate, keep clients informed, and build confidence in BAE Networks as their trusted partner. This is a role for someone who takes pride in both the quality of their technical work and the quality of their client relationships.

• Experience in a managed service provider (MSP) environment
