  9. Ensure Data Protection & Cyber Resilience by managing immutable cloud-based backups using Dell APEX / Druva. This includes configuring policies to protect against ransomware, accidental deletion, and unauthorized data modification.
  10. Collaborate on Network Services, managing critical services including DNS, DHCP, SNMP, and HTTP/HTTPS, while maintaining a solid understanding of routing and VLANs.
  11. Support Modern Endpoints by managing Windows Intune for device configuration and supporting Microsoft 365/Office 365 collaboration tools.
  12. Provide periodic after-hours support and travel to remote campus locations as needed to address critical infrastructure issues and meet the demands of a 24/7 residential campus.

Operational Excellence

  2. Document and Share Knowledge by contributing to a central knowledge management system, including server configurations, troubleshooting guides, and recovery procedures.
