• Support data accuracy and integrity efforts, including data analysis, reconciliation, cleanup, and reporting across managed platforms.
• Provide application support for team-managed enterprise applications, including troubleshooting, access management, and coordination with vendors and other lab teams.
• Assist with automation and scripting to streamline routine operational and reporting tasks.
• Document procedures, runbooks, and configurations to maintain accurate operational records.
• Collaborate with partner teams to support cross-functional initiatives.
• Adhere to security and compliance standards, including role-based access control (RBAC) and access-governance practices.

• Working knowledge of how IPAM (IP Address Management) and DNS function at a fundamental level.
• Fundamentals of application support engineering (application lifecycle, access provisioning, vendor coordination).
• Exposure to platforms such as NetBox, Infoblox, or PowerDNS (familiarity, not expertise, is sufficient).
• Experience with monitoring tools (e.g., Zabbix, Grafana) or ticketing/ITSM systems (e.g., Jira).
• Experience working in a lab, data center, or enterprise infrastructure environment.
• Familiarity with version control (Git) and CI/CD concepts.
