IT Networking is your thing. As well as general troubleshooting and implementation, you're able to design solutions to complex problems. You'll be able to flex your technical muscles and show-off your flair and expertise. Contract work has its challenges, but you certainly won 't be bored! You'll be working on a high-profile site in Edinburgh, with two well-established Aditinet Network Consultants. Work will involve the design, implementation and support of innovative technology solutions considering network and security elements. For this project, you'll need to have a good understanding of F5 networks - particularly LTM and GTM load balancers, and ASM / APM analytics. If you've got official F5 certifications, you'll probably find your CV makes its way to the top of our pile. Being techy is of course, important. But equally desirable is your ability to communicate with colleagues and clients, show understanding and empathy, and successfully provide the highest level of support to customers. Our values are focused on listening, quality, transparency, integrity, respect and customer focus. You'll find our people reflect those on every job - in particular, translating complicated concepts in a way our customers can easily digest. What's in it for you? Well, apart from challenging, engaging and varied work, you'll get around £400 per day, any necessary expenses, and digs provided if you live away from home (the type of place we'd be happy to live ourselves - integrity, remember?) The initial contract is for 5 months - but this could be extended for a lot longer. Saying that, we 're always looking for great engineers to support our regular work - so the likelihood is, if this works out, we 'll be seeing more of each other! Our technical team can tell you more - but you'll have to click 'apply' for that.
