About Purple Rock IT Solutions Purple Rock IT Solutions is an IT infrastructure, networking, and systems integration company delivering enterprise IT solutions, managed services, and large-scale event technology deployments across the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Our projects range from corporate offices and managed IT environments to international events, exhibitions, sporting venues, and temporary network deployments. We are looking for a hands-on Network Engineer who is equally comfortable on a project site at 11pm during an event build-up as they are configuring a FortiGate firewall for an MSP client the next morning. This is a field-heavy, deployment-focused role and is not suitable for candidates seeking purely desk-based, NOC-only, or remote positions. You will work across two environments: •       MSP clients — ongoing support, configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting for a portfolio of corporate clients across KSA. •       Event & project deployments — design, deploy, operate, and decommission temporary network infrastructure for exhibitions, conferences, sporting events, and activations, often under tight timelines and high-pressure conditions.
