  • Align device management with Entra ID Conditional Access and security posture standards.
  1. Governance, Risk, and Compliance
  • Align all identity and access functions with HIPAA, MARS-E, and ARC-AMPE frameworks.

  • Advise on least-privilege access models, periodic entitlement reviews, and compliance documentation.
  • Collaborate with DOM s Information Security and Compliance teams to ensure audit readiness.
  1. Cloud Service Modernization and Technical Leadership
  • Provide architectural direction for continued migration of email, file services, and endpoint management to Microsoft 365 / Azure.

  • Deliver technical workshops and architectural sessions to DOM staff to ensure skills transfer and sustainability.
  • Maintain alignment with Microsoft s latest cloud identity and security best practices.
