Purpose of the Job 

The IT Analyst is instrumental in administering, securing, and operating a hybrid IT estate that spans on-premises infrastructure and a fully cloud-based Microsoft 365 environment. Covering end user support, virtualization, cloud identity, endpoint management, networking, and security, this is a full-spectrum role that balances day-to-day operational support with strategic project execution. 

This role spans both systems analysis and end user support. The ideal candidate owns and administers the platforms directly Entra ID, Intune, Microsoft 365, VMware, and the broader infrastructure while also handling L1 and L2 support tickets as part of daily responsibilities. The advantage of a true analyst in this seat is that they are not just troubleshooting symptoms, they understand and control the systems underneath. When project work is light, additional focus shifts to end user support alongside the helpdesk team. 

 Key Accountabilities 

1.             Administer Entra ID (Azure AD) including user and group lifecycle, Conditional Access policies, MFA enforcement, and SSO integrations across 300 users and 3 tenants 

2.             Manage the Windows endpoint fleet of 500 devices and 20 macOS devices via Microsoft Intune including configuration profiles, compliance policies, app delivery, and Autopilot provisioning 

3.             Administer Microsoft 365 tenant including Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, and licensing 

4.             Maintain and support on-premises application server infrastructure hosted on VMware ESXi across 25 hosts and approximately 150 virtual machines spanning production, QA, and development environments 

5.             Perform routine server administration tasks including patching, health monitoring, resource optimization, and incident response for physical and virtual workloads in the MDF 

6.             Support day-to-day network operations across a Meraki environment  

7.             Maintain endpoint security posture and patch compliance across the fleet via Kaseya VSA (used as a basic RMM tool); support Zscaler client deployments on endpoints as directed 

8.             Assist with vulnerability remediation using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and endpoint security tooling 

9.             Assist with backup integrity checks and participate in DR planning and scheduled recovery testing 

10.         Use PowerShell for basic administrative tasks; willingness to learn and grow scripting skills over time 

11.         Handle L1 and L2 support tickets covering workstations, laptops, printers, mobile devices, and connectivity issues across office and warehouse locations 

12.         Serve as the escalation point for tickets that exceed L1 scope and require deeper system or platform knowledge 

13.         Set up and configure new endpoints with standardized builds, software, and security tooling via Autopilot and Intune 

14.         Assist IT team with camera system locations, installations, and maintenance 

15.         Respond to emergency issues that require on-site presence including travel to datacenter locations as needed 

16.         Document system configurations, changes, and procedures; contribute to knowledge base to reduce repeat escalations 

17.         Execute IT projects as assigned including migrations, deployments, and policy rollouts with minimal supervision 



Qualifications: 

* Demonstrated hands-on experience administering IT systems in a corporate environment 

* Solid working knowledge of Microsoft 365 including Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive 

* Hands-on experience with Entra ID (Azure AD) actual administration, not just awareness 

* Experience with Microsoft Intune for endpoint management and policy deployment 

* Experience supporting Windows Server environments including patching, health monitoring, and basic troubleshooting 

* Basic familiarity with virtualization ability to provision and manage virtual machines (VMware ESXi or similar) 

* Foundational networking knowledge including TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, and basic firewall concepts 

* Comfortable handling L1 and L2 support tickets and communicating professionally with end users 

* Strong troubleshooting methodology focused on root cause, not just symptoms 

* Ability to work independently and manage workload without constant direction 

* Strong documentation practices and system change tracking habits 

* Clear written and verbal communication skills 

Physical Requirements 

* Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer 

* Must be able to lift up to 60 pounds to support hardware installations and equipment moves 

* Ability to work in server room, MDF, and warehouse environments as needed 

* Occasional travel to datacenter and office locations for on-site support and maintenance
