JOB SUMMARY
This role is best suited for a hands-on systems engineer / senior systems administrator who thrives in a hybrid cloud and on-prem environment and enjoys solving real operational problems.
You’ll support a large-scale enterprise environment (~700 servers) with a strong focus on:
- Azure and Office 365 administration
- Day-to-day operational support and troubleshooting
- Identity, access, and infrastructure management
While this role includes some project work (notably an SSO migration from Okta to Entrust), most of your time will be spent keeping systems running smoothly, resolving issues, and supporting the business.
This is not a purely architectural role, it’s ideal for someone who likes being in the environment, solving problems, and making things better every day.

· Administer and support Windows/Linux servers across cloud and on-prem
· Handle day-to-day operational workload (~75–80%), including ticket queues and user/system issues
· Perform server patching and vulnerability management (SCCM today, evolving over time)
· Support identity and access management (Active Directory, Entra, conditional access, app registrations)
· Participate in SSO migration (Okta → Entrust) initiatives
· Manage VMware-based infrastructure in a hybrid environment
· Support server provisioning, decommissioning, and system lifecycle tasks
· Troubleshoot across infrastructure, systems, and access issues
· Work within enterprise change control processes
· Collaborate with cloud engineering, security, and infrastructure teams
