  • Interact with clients in a professional, consultative manner, both remotely and on-site.

  • Operate independently with minimal supervision while meeting performance, quality, and SLA expectations.

  • Manage and prioritize technical requests submitted via ticketing systems, phone, and email, with a focus on escalations and higher-complexity work.

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date technical documentation, including system changes, configurations, and procedures.

  • Ensure the security, integrity, and confidentiality of client data at all times.

  • Develop user-facing documentation such as operational guides, reference materials, and best-practice instructions.

Technical & Administrative Focus Areas

  • Advanced Troubleshooting & Escalation Management:
    Diagnose and resolve complex issues, including DNS failures, VPN configurations, application integrations, database-related issues, and server-level modifications.

  • Incident Ownership & Root Cause Analysis:
    Lead incidents from identification through resolution, performing root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

  • Network Administration & Troubleshooting:
    Diagnose and remediate network connectivity issues involving firewalls, switches, wireless access points, routing, and VPN technologies.

  • Server Administration:
    Perform routine server administration and maintenance tasks, including configuration changes, updates, monitoring, and issue resolution.

  • End-User Enablement & Training:
    Provide guidance and training to users to improve system usage, security awareness, and overall productivity.

  • Documentation & Knowledge Management:
    Contribute to and enhance internal knowledge bases and documentation to support operational consistency and team efficiency.

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience provisioning, administering, and troubleshooting various components of Office 365, including but not limited to SharePoint, Teams, Exchange Online, Entra ID, Intune, and related services.
  • Expertise with networking protocols and equipment such as physical and virtual firewalls, Layer 2/3 switches, DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP, and more.
