PDQ's Core Values: Honesty, Ownership, Collaboration and Improvement
Job Description:
PDQ is hiring a Romania-based Solutions Engineer to support our endpoint management products, including:
- PDQ Connect – cloud-based, agent-based device management
- PDQ Deploy & Inventory – on-prem, agentless deployment and inventory tools
- And, depending on experience, need, and desire: SmartDeploy, SimpleMDM, and PDQ Detect
You’ll help other sysadmins (our customers) solve difficult technical issues across a wide range of environments. You'll work in English with a U.S.-based team. You will test new features, provide product feedback, reproduce bugs, and support real-world IT environments with all their quirks and inconsistencies.
This is not L1 support. This is not customer success. You will be solving hard problems with other people like you: system administrators with real-world experience.
Responsibilities:
- Respond to customer tickets (primarily email, sometimes remote conferencing)
- Investigate inventory anomalies, deployment failures, connectivity issues, credential problems, and environmental issues across customer networks
- Reproduce and escalate bugs to Engineering, with clear technical documentation
- Maintain and author technical documentation, knowledge base articles, and usage guides
- Capture and prioritize customer feedback and feature requests for Product and Strategy
- Collaborate with internal teams on product quality, testing, documentation, and process improvements
Requirements:
Must have
- Strong written and spoken English (B2+ equivalent); all work is conducted in English
- 3+ years system administration experience in Windows environments (SMB, enterprise, education, MSP, or government)
- Solid understanding of Windows, Active Directory, DNS, networking, credentials, Group Policy, and LAPS
- Hands-on experience with device management tools like PDQ Deploy, PDQ Connect, Intune, SCCM, Kaseya, or similar
- Demonstrated experience supporting software deployments and troubleshooting end-user environments
- Working understanding of security best practices in Windows environments
Nice to have
- Experience with scripting in PowerShell (or Bash, Python)
- Exposure to vulnerability or remediation tools (Defender, Nessus, Tenable, etc.)
- Comfort with macOS or iOS
Tools we use:
- Zendesk
- Office 365
- Slack
- Linear
- Notion

Compensation & Benefits:
- 10,000 – 11,200+ net RON/month, depending on experience

- Company-provided laptop, monitor(s), peripherals, and all required remote setup hardware
- PDQ is committed to a great work/life balance (for real), which may include a condensed work week
Schedule:
- First 2–3 months: 11:00–20:00 EET (training overlaps with U.S. team)
- After onboarding: Normal Romanian business hours with occasional late meetings
Interview Process
- Candidate interviews may be scheduled between 18:00–22:00 EET (9AM-1PM Mountain Time). All communication will be in English.
