  • Collaborate cross-functionally to deploy and maintain critical infrastructure and applications.
  • Participate in helpdesk and escalation support - we operate as an all-hands-on-deck team.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience as a System Administrator or equivalent technical role.
  • Hands-on experience with both Linux and Windows servers in hybrid (on-prem + cloud) environments.

  • Deep expertise in Microsoft 365, Azure AD, Intune, and Exchange Online.
  • Proficiency in identity management, endpoint security, and monitoring and alerting systems.
  • Solid troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across diverse systems.
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills.
  • Interest in structured operations and ITSM best practices.

Preferred Skills and Experience:

  • Experience in aerospace, defense, or other regulated technical environments.
