The digital world doesn’t stand still, which is why ECS is looking for a System Engineer with a passion for the Microsoft ecosystem and an interest in cybersecurity. As a System Engineer you will join a team of 4 colleagues who work on projects, innovations, research and support in the field of systems, networks and security on a daily basis.
