Job description

W-2, Full-Time (NexusTek Employee) | Remote, U.S.-Based | Initial 4-Month Engagement, Extension Possible

The Opportunity

A confidential healthcare services organization is seeking a Senior Azure Administrator to serve as their embedded Azure administrator and governance layer during an active migration of finance automation from UiPath to Microsoft Power Platform. This is a genuine platform-governance role, not a migration-build role, the client's own implementation partners handle the build, this person keeps the Azure environment, security posture, and platform readiness solid underneath them.

What You'll Own

• Azure foundation and tenant administration: expanding from a single subscription into a multi-subscription model (management, security, application, landing-zone), resource-group structure, Entra ID configuration, role-based access control, Key Vault, storage, and managed-identity patterns
• Power Platform and Microsoft Fabric enablement: managed environments, data loss prevention policies, Fabric enablement, environment variables, licensing and tenant readiness
• Partner and vendor enablement: coordinating environment access, network connectivity, and readiness for third-party implementation teams, clearing permissions, networking, and connectivity obstacles for them
• Security, compliance, and governance support: least-privilege and conditional-access configuration, maintaining security posture and guardrails while external partners build workloads
• Ongoing Azure and endpoint administration: subscription and cost management, resource governance, hybrid connectivity support, endpoint and cloud administration, environment documentation

Required Qualifications

• Deep, hands-on Azure administration experience: multi-subscription environments, Entra ID, RBAC, Key Vault, managed identity, resource governance
• Real experience supporting or enabling Power Platform and/or Microsoft Fabric environments
• Comfortable in a governance and enablement role, supporting other teams' work rather than owning a build end to end
• U.S.-based, available to work standard U.S. business hours, Monday through Friday
• Able to pass a standard background check as a condition of this being a W-2 employment relationship with NexusTek

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to RPA-to-Power-Platform migrations, or familiarity with UiPath, given the context this role supports
• Experience in a healthcare or other regulated industry environment
• Experience coordinating with external implementation or consulting partners working inside a client's environment

What This Role Is Not

• Not a Power Platform or RPA developer role, this person governs and enables the platform, the client's implementation partners build on it
• Not a PHI/ePHI-handling role, the client has explicitly scoped this engagement to exclude protected health information
• Not a 1099 or corp-to-corp engagement, this is a genuine NexusTek W-2 position, salary-based, not an hourly contract rate
