  • Cloud & Identity: Administer Azure/AWS services (compute, storage, networking, IAM), Azure Active Directory/Entra ID, SSO/MFA, conditional access, and identity governance.

  • Security & Compliance: Harden systems, patch at scale, manage certs/keys/secrets, and ensure adherence to internal standards (e.g., the company password standard). Ensure privileged user practices align with policy and audit requirements.

  • Collaboration: Work closely with Security and external partners to remediate findings, tune detections, and prepare for assessments/pen tests. (We regularly coordinate with our vCISO and SOC partners.)

  • Service Ownership: Own core services (AD/DNS/DHCP, virtualization, file/print, backup/DR, email/M365, endpoint management), including lifecycle, roadmaps, and change management.

  • Networking (with NetOps): Contribute to L2/L3 troubleshooting, VLAN/subnet design, firewalls/NGFW policies, VPN, and zero trust segmentation.

  • Business Continuity: Design and test high availability and disaster recovery strategies; conduct tabletop exercises; meet RTO/RPO targets.

  • Documentation & Runbooks: Maintain architecture diagrams, SOPs, and recovery playbooks; mentor engineers through code reviews and technical guidance.

  • 2-5 years in systems engineering or infrastructure roles supporting production environments.

  • Expert knowledge of Windows Server (AD, Group Policy, PKI) and solid proficiency with Linux (systemd, SELinux/AppArmor, package management).

  • Hands on with virtualization (VMware vSphere/ESXi or Hyper V) and enterprise storage/backup solutions.

  • Proven experience administering Azure/AWS and M365/Exchange Online, including identity, security baselines, and cost governance.

  • Strong automation skills (PowerShell, Bash) and experience with IaC/config management tools (Terraform, Ansible, DSC).

  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, routing/switching, DNS/DHCP, VPN, load balancers, firewalls).

  • Track record of delivering secure architectures, patch management at scale, and meeting compliance requirements aligned to internal standards and privileged user controls.

  • Excellent troubleshooting, incident response, and stakeholder communication skills; ability to lead complex investigations under time pressure.
