- DevOps Automation, Scripting & Initiative
-
- Advanced PowerShell Automation: Build, maintain, and document production-grade PowerShell modules, automation runbooks, and API-driven scripts (Graph API, Azure CLI) to eliminate manual administration tasks and automate cross-platform syncs.
- Continuous Improvement & Problem Discovery: Proactively identify legacy technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and security vulnerabilities across directory and cloud services without waiting for task assignment.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Drive modern automation practices utilizing ARM/Bicep templates or Terraform for repeatable Azure resource deployments.
- Escalations, Collaboration & Mentorship
-
- Tier 3/4 Escalation Authority: Serve as the definitive escalation tier for complex directory, authentication, sync, and M365 infrastructure issues, interfacing directly with Helpdesk, Local Tech Support, Infosec, and engineering teams.
- Vendor & Project Leadership: Partner with external technology vendors, lead enterprise migration and divestiture initiatives, and author detailed technical documentation, architectural diagrams, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
- Technical Mentorship: Guide and upskill junior system administrators, desktop engineers, and support personnel.

-
- Hands-on administration or foundational experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP), including Google Cloud IAM, Cloud Identity, and Workload Identity Federation with Microsoft Entra ID / Active Directory.
