    Built by engineers,
    driven by relationships

    Modern Edge Technology isn't a faceless service desk. We're a team of experienced engineers who believe enterprise-grade IT should be accessible to every organization — without the enterprise price tag.

    Our Culture

    What we stand for

    People Over Tickets

    We don't measure success by tickets closed. We measure it by problems that never happen in the first place. Proactive beats reactive — every time.

    No Long-Term Contracts

    We earn your business every month. Our flexible agreements mean you stay because we deliver, not because you're locked in. That keeps us sharp.

    Transparent Pricing

    Our low markup model means you get enterprise-grade solutions at fair prices. No hidden fees, no surprise invoices, no markup games.

    Leadership

    Meet the person behind the infrastructure

    Mark Duerwachter, Vice President of Business Operations

    Mark Duerwachter

    Vice President of Business Operations

    With over two decades of experience in enterprise IT infrastructure, Mark doesn't just manage technology — he architects the systems that businesses depend on every day. His career spans the full spectrum: from pulling cable in server rooms to designing multi-site SD-WAN deployments for Fortune 500 clients.

    Mark founded Modern Edge Technology on a simple principle: organizations shouldn't have to choose between quality and affordability. He saw too many businesses getting overcharged for mediocre IT support, locked into contracts they couldn't escape, and left vulnerable by providers who didn't understand their industry.

    Today, Mark personally oversees every major deployment and maintains direct relationships with clients. When you work with Modern Edge, you're not handed off to a rotating cast of technicians — you get Mark's cell phone number and a team that knows your environment inside out.

    How We Work

    Hands-on, not hands-off

    Every engagement starts with a real conversation. Mark meets with your team on-site, walks your facility, and learns your workflows before recommending a single piece of technology.

    It's this personal, engineering-first approach that sets Modern Edge apart from the help-desk-in-a-box providers. We're not reading from a script — we're solving your specific problems with solutions tailored to your environment.
