• Support tenant coexistence and transition requirements such as mail flow, identity synchronization, address list visibility, Teams collaboration, application access, and user communications during phased migrations.
• Deploy and troubleshoot device migration agents and endpoint configurations through manual methods, Group Policy, SCCM/MECM, or Microsoft Intune; validate device registration, join state, compliance, profiles, and user access.
• Use PowerShell and reporting tools to automate discovery, validate prerequisites, reconcile migrated objects and content, and produce actionable exception reports.
• Build and execute proof-of-concept, pilot, Early Adopter, and production migration waves; document results, triage issues, coordinate remediation, and re-test before broader rollout.
• Create and maintain migration runbooks covering prerequisites, pre-stage activities, cutover steps, validation, communications, escalation paths, contingency measures, and rollback procedures.
• Provide cutover and hypercare support, investigate cross-platform issues, and work across identity, messaging, collaboration, endpoint, network, security, and application teams to restore service quickly.
• Produce clear technical documentation, status updates, issue and risk inputs, and change records while supporting RAB/CAB submissions and formal testing governance.
• Collaborate effectively with professional services teams, client technical leads, business stakeholders, subject matter experts, vendors, and partners from planning through migration completion.
• Travel on a limited basis when needed to support client sites and project activities while promoting Insight values.

• Working knowledge of Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID migrations, including multi-domain or multi-forest environments, directory synchronization, hybrid identity, trusts, SID history, ReACL, and domain join or re-join processes.
• Experience using one or more migration toolsets such as Quest On Demand Migration, Quest Migration Manager, BitTitan MigrationWiz, ShareGate, or Microsoft native migration tools.

• Hands-on experience designing, configuring, implementing, migrating, and troubleshooting Microsoft DHCP in enterprise environments, including DHCP server authorization, scope and superscope creation, exclusions, reservations, lease management, scope and server options, DHCP policies, failover and high-availability configurations, relay/IP helper dependencies, DNS dynamic updates, backup and restore, and post-migration validation. Working knowledge of related technologies including Group Policy, DNS, certificates, file share permissions, NTFS ACLs, conditional access, and authentication protocols.
• Experience using PowerShell for discovery, migration automation, reporting, validation, and troubleshooting across Microsoft 365 and Active Directory.
• Ability to understand dependencies across identity, messaging, collaboration, endpoints, networking, security, and applications and to coordinate resolution with the appropriate specialists.
• 2+ years of experience in a customer-facing consulting or professional services delivery role, with strong communication, documentation, facilitation, and troubleshooting skills.
