• Configure and maintain Windows Server environments across cloud and on-premises, including Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, and IIS.
• Maintain the security, compliance, disaster recovery readiness, and performance of cloud and on-premises services.
• Identify root causes of recurring issues and eliminate them through automation rather than repeated manual resolution.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Security, Application Support, Data, PMO) to deliver scalable and secure solutions.

• Perform other duties as needed

Must-Have:

• 7+ years of experience in cloud technologies, automation, and infrastructure engineering
