Salary: $140,000 - $170,000 per year
A bit about us:
We're a global real estate investment and management firm with a sizable, diverse portfolio spanning office, retail, industrial, and mixed-use properties across multiple markets and ownership structures. As "smart building" expectations rise, we're investing heavily in the technology backbone behind our properties, from amenity centers to core building systems, and building the team to own that strategy.
Why join us?
- High-visibility individual contributor role — your impact comes from setting strategy and standards, not headcount
- Rare seat at the intersection of physical real estate and digital infrastructure
- The portfolio-wide playbook doesn't exist yet, so you're writing it, not inheriting someone else's
- Real, hands-on use of AI tools to drive efficiency, not just lip service
- Base up to $170K + 20% target bonus
- 3 weeks PTO plus strong benefits
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Reporting to a senior infrastructure leader, you'll own the design, standards, and governance for building networking, cybersecurity, and connected systems across a portfolio where no two properties (or owners) look alike.
Three core areas of focus:
- Property-side cybersecurity — protecting connected building systems (HVAC, elevators, access control, cameras) from real-world threats
- Property-side networking — setting the standard for how connectivity reaches each building (fiber, Wi-Fi, segmentation)
- Real estate operations — translating standards into requirements that construction teams, GCs, and vendors actually follow
This is a strategy and standards role, not hands-on configuration. You won't be programming switches, but you need to be fluent at the architecture level (edge switches, distribution switches, firewalls) to direct the network engineers who do.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
What you bring:
- 10-12+ years in OT/IT infrastructure (real estate, construction, or multi-site environments preferred)
- 5+ years converging disparate networks across vendors and owners
- Demonstrable hands-on AI use
- Strong cross-functional communication
- Relevant certifications (CCNP, CCIE, CWNA) a plus
SCHEDULE
3 days/week required on-site in Houston.

IT Engineer Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become an it engineer in Texas?
Texas does not require a state-issued license specifically for it engineers, so entry into the field follows an education-and-certification path. Most employers expect at least a bachelor's degree in information technology, computer science, or a related discipline from an accredited Texas university or community college. Earning widely recognized certifications such as CompTIA Network+, CompTIA Security+, or a Microsoft or Cisco credential significantly strengthens candidacy and is frequently listed as a requirement in Texas job postings.
Which companies hire it engineers in Texas?
Employers hiring it engineers in Texas right now include Amazon, LTIMindtree, and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Texas's concentration of Fortune 500 headquarters, major defense contractors, and large energy companies means consistent demand for it engineers across a range of industries and company sizes.
Which Texas cities have the most it engineer jobs?
Austin, Dallas, and Houston have the most it engineer openings in Texas. Austin's dense technology sector and corporate campus expansions drive volume there, Dallas attracts demand through its headquarters concentration in financial services and telecom, and Houston's energy industry and large medical center complex generate steady need for infrastructure and systems engineering talent.
Are there remote it engineer jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than many technical fields. About 15% of it engineer openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting the desk-based and systems-administration nature of much of the work. Roles focused on cloud administration, helpdesk support, and network monitoring tend to be the most remote-eligible, while positions requiring on-site hardware work or data center access remain largely in-person.
How can I get hired as an it engineer in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a helpdesk or IT support associate role, which large Texas employers in healthcare, finance, and state government regularly post as entry-level positions requiring only a foundational credential or degree. Institutions like the University of Texas system and Texas A&M use IT support staff pipelines that welcome new graduates. Earning a CompTIA A+ certification before applying gives candidates a concrete edge, and lateral moves from roles such as desktop support technician or systems administrator assistant are common stepping stones into full it engineer titles at Texas companies.
Where can I find and apply to it engineer jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to it engineer jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to Texas employers. Find the roles that fit your background and experience level and apply directly to each one.
