HANDS -ON and articulate Microsoft Cloud Architect to lead the planning, implementation, and change management of enterprise cloud technologies in alignment with the Town's IT Strategic Roadmap. This position is ideal for a strategic doer-someone who can both implement solutions directly and secure executive buy-in through compelling visual storytelling and effective communication.
The architect will translate complex initiatives into plain language and visual artifacts that promote clarity, confidence, and consensus across departments.
The Cloud Architect will collaborate with implementation vendors and internal stakeholders to drive cloud modernization priorities, including SharePoint Online deployment, Microsoft Intune rollout, Microsoft Entra ID integration, Zero Trust security enforcement, and broader Microsoft 365 enhancements. A core responsibility of this position is the ability to present clearly to high level non-technical audiences, ensuring alignment, buy-in, and transparency at each stage of project implementation.
Key Responsibilities
Leadership Communication & Strategic Alignment
Develop and deliver compelling, visual presentations (e.g., roadmaps, dashboards, milestone charts) for leadership audiences.
Translate highly technical information into clear, plain-language briefings tailored to non-technical stakeholders.
Present updates and recommendations during IT Steering Committee meetings and Town leadership strategy sessions.
Align cloud modernization projects with Town priorities, budget planning, staffing readiness, and organizational change goals.
Technology Implementation & Execution
Configure and manage Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory synchronization, and Intune deployment for full MDM/MAM lifecycle management.
Lead the hands-on deployment and governance of:
Zero Trust Security Controls: MFA, Conditional Access, DLP policies, legacy protocol blocking.
Microsoft Defender for Office 365: Secure Score, policy tuning, threat mitigation.
