About Us

At Intelligent Networks, Inc. , we’re a security-first MSP serving SMBs across Northeast Georgia with enterprise-grade cybersecurity and forward-thinking AI strategy consulting . We’re a tight-knit team of four — with employees averaging nearly a decade of tenure — and we take pride in doing the work right, building lasting client relationships, and growing together. We’re not a revolving-door shop. When the right person joins us, they tend to stay.

The Role

We’re looking for a Level 1–2 Technician who brings real skills, real initiative, and real client-facing presence. You’ll support a diverse base of SMB clients across everything from Microsoft 365 to network troubleshooting. This is not a ticket-queue seat-warmer role. We need someone who digs in, owns problems, communicates clearly, and takes initiative without being asked.

Our office is centrally located to serve clients throughout the Gainesville, Athens, and Gwinnett corridor, with occasional on-site visits. You’ll work closely with a small, experienced team that values doing things right over doing things fast.

This is a growth role. We’re actively building out positions in security engineering and AI strategy consulting and want to develop those roles from within. If you’re genuinely hungry to grow into more responsibility and help shape how a modern MSP operates, this is where that path starts.
