• Support applications you may not have prior experience with, requiring:
• Willingness to learn new platforms quickly
• Ability to understand how third-party systems interact with Microsoft 365
• Troubleshooting authentication, permissions, data flow, and integration issues
• Collaborate with vendors and MSPs to ensure proper configuration and supportability.

Projects, Optimization & Automation

• Optimize Microsoft 365 environments for security, performance, and cost efficiency.
• Develop and maintain PowerShell scripts to automate Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, and related administrative tasks.
• Recommend improvements, standards, and long-term strategies to MSP partners.
• Stay current on Microsoft 365 feature changes and emerging cloud technologies.
