Hire a systems administrator without paying $100K+ a year. Get pre-vetted, AI-fluent systems administrators starting at $3.5K per month. We handle sourcing, vetting, payroll, and compliance so you can keep servers patched, onboard employees in hours instead of days, and stop treating IT as everyone's side job.
In most growing companies, systems administration is a shared burden. A technical founder resets passwords, a developer patches the server when they remember, and backups are assumed to work because nobody has tested a restore. Hiring for the role locally feels expensive for work that is invisible until it breaks. Our model closes that gap with a dedicated, vetted systems administrator at a cost that fits the reality of the role.
Every candidate goes through structured skills-based testing, real-world scenario evaluation including troubleshooting a broken environment under time pressure, and a hands-on AI fluency assessment. When you hire a systems administrator through us, they are inside your identity provider, servers, and ticket queue within 30 days, and we handle the employment contract, payroll, and compliance completely.
A systems administrator keeps your servers, accounts, devices, and internal tools running so the rest of the company never has to think about them. A dedicated one turns IT from a recurring emergency into a quiet routine.
The recognizable moment is an offboarded employee whose accounts stayed active for three weeks, or a server that went down and took the afternoon with it.
Your developers keep getting pulled off product work to fix VPN issues and reset accounts
Nobody has tested a backup restore, and deep down you know that is a problem
New hires wait days for laptops and access while ex-employees keep logins they should have lost on day one
Server patching happens whenever someone remembers, which lately has been almost never

Every candidate is skills-tested on the exact work this role does, assessed for AI fluency on real tasks, and scored with our proprietary Remote Readiness Score — built from 1,000+ successful remote hires — before they reach your team.

Talent is embedded into your team and works like any other team member.
Hiring a systems administrator locally typically costs $8,500 to $10,500 per month once you factor in salary, benefits, and overhead. With our model, you can reduce that cost by up to 70% while still getting a full-time systems administrator working directly inside your servers, identity provider, and IT ticket queue.
We take on the employment side, contracts, payroll, benefits, and HR admin, while you direct the priorities. When you hire a systems administrator this way, reliability compounds, documented systems, tested backups, and an environment that gets tidier every month instead of messier.
A rigorously vetted administrator, infrastructure that stops interrupting your team, and a monthly cost that finally matches the role. Hire a systems administrator before the next outage decides for you.
