• Keep tickets up to date with clear troubleshooting notes, evidence, and user communication.
• Create and maintain knowledge articles and runbooks to improve L1 enablement and first-time fix.
• Monitor endpoint update/patch compliance and coordinate remediation or escalation as needed.
• Follow and continuously improve operational procedures.

Security & Compliance

• Apply security standards and report potential risks or misconfigurations.
• Triage Defender for Endpoint alerts for end-user devices (validate, guide containment, collect evidence) and escalates to Security when required.
• Support Entra ID controls (MFA, SSPR, access reviews) within agreed procedures.
• Support audits and compliance activities when required.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree (or equivalent experience).
• 3–5 years of relevant experience (enterprise and/or consulting preferred).
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365, Microsoft Entra, and Windows 11.
• Experience with PowerShell and Graph API is considered a plus.
• Experience with Microsoft Teams, Video Rooms and telephony is considered a plus.
• Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills; able to work independently within defined procedures.
• Clear communication with L1, L3, and stakeholders; structured documentation and follow-up.
