    • Manage user and device lifecycle: onboarding/offboarding, access provisioning, security group management, and conditional access policies.
    • Troubleshoot and resolve escalated tickets related to identity, authentication, endpoint compliance, and M365 service issues.
    • Support Microsoft 365 security posture: MFA, conditional access, Defender for Endpoint/Office 365, and Purview/compliance configurations.
    • Maintain documentation for configurations, standard operating procedures, and change management records.
    • Partner with IT leadership on infrastructure projects, including migrations, upgrades, and security hardening initiatives.
    • Participate in on-call rotation and respond to after-hours incidents as needed.

    • Advanced, hands-on experience with Microsoft 365 administration (Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, Entra ID).
    • Deep, hands-on expertise with Microsoft Intune for endpoint/device management and compliance.
    • Expert-level knowledge of Active Directory administration (GPOs, OUs, replication, hybrid identity/AD Connect).
    • Solid understanding of identity security concepts: conditional access, MFA, RBAC, and least-privilege principles.
    • Experience with PowerShell scripting for administration and automation tasks, including the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK.
    • Strong troubleshooting skills and ability to work independently on complex, ambiguous issues.
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

    Preferred Qualifications
