  • Strong Microsoft 365 administration experience, including Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive.

  • Experience administering Microsoft Azure, Windows Server, Active Directory, Entra ID, and Hyper-V environments.

  • Good understanding of DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP networking, and core Microsoft infrastructure technologies.

  • Experience supporting Windows 11, desktop hardware, and enterprise IT environments.

  • Ability to manage infrastructure upgrades, system improvements, and ongoing operational support.
