This role requires strong technical depth in identity, ITSM, and Microsoft-ecosystem administration, together with excellent written and spoken English for daily collaboration with US stakeholders.

• Report weekly on Pune queue health, SLA attainment, and top ticket drivers to the Director, IT Services & Support.
• Represent Pune on cross-team programs: contractor account extensions with HR, distribution list governance with Corp Comms, laptop refresh planning, and audit evidence collection with the InfoSec and BRC teams.
• Onboard and offboard employees and contractors in Pune, including day-one hardware, account, and access provisioning.
• Provide on-call and follow-the-sun support coverage during APAC business hours, with a defined overlap window each week for US and EMEA collaboration.

• Deep, hands-on Okta administration experience at scale (500+ user tenant): lifecycle management, MFA policy design, application onboarding via SAML, OIDC, or OAuth, security group governance, and directory hygiene.
• Strong JIRA Service Management experience as a power user or administrator: request-type design, workflow tuning, portal management, SLA reporting.
• Working administration experience across Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams) and Microsoft Entra ID / Active Directory (group management, conditional access basics, licensing).
• Working knowledge of at least one Windows endpoint management platform (Quest KACE, Automox, or Microsoft Intune) and some familiarity with Jamf Pro on the macOS side.
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, sufficient for daily interaction with US and EMEA managers, engineers, and executives.
• Experience working with employees and clients around the world, primarily in the US, at all levels of the organization.
• Track record of producing and maintaining written SOPs, runbooks, or knowledge-base documentation.
• Attention to detail and the ability to follow, refine, and author complex operational procedures.
