Weekend Administrator information

What is a weekend administrator?

Weekend Administrators are professionals responsible for managing administrative tasks and overseeing operations during weekends when regular weekday staff may be unavailable. Their duties often include handling customer inquiries, supervising staff, ensuring smooth facility operations, and addressing any urgent issues that arise. Weekend Administrators are commonly found in healthcare, hospitality, and office settings, where continuous management is essential. They play a key role in maintaining service quality and quick decision-making outside standard business hours.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a weekend administrator?

To thrive as a Weekend Administrator, you need strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and experience in office administration or a related field. Familiarity with office software such as Microsoft Office Suite, scheduling systems, and basic database management is typically required. Excellent communication, problem-solving abilities, and the capacity to work independently are valuable soft skills in this role. These skills ensure efficient office operations, effective handling of weekend-specific tasks, and reliable support for staff and clients outside regular business hours.

What are common challenges faced by weekend administrators, and how can new hires prepare for them?

Weekend Administrators often manage a broad range of responsibilities with less on-site support compared to weekday staff, which can present challenges in problem-solving and decision-making. New hires should be prepared to work independently, handle unexpected situations efficiently, and communicate clearly with both colleagues and management who may not be present on weekends. Developing strong organizational skills and familiarity with company protocols will help ensure smooth operations, while proactively seeking clarification during training can boost confidence and effectiveness in the role.

Job description

Join Our Team

Devis is a leading provider of innovative software development, management, and consulting services, specializing in cutting-edge technologies such as DevSecOps, AI, and Machine Learning. With over 30 years of experience, we have established ourselves as a trusted partner for government agencies, delivering tailored, mission-critical solutions that drive digital transformation and operational excellence. Our client-centric approach, coupled with our deep domain expertise and technical prowess, enables us to forge enduring relationships and consistently deliver high-impact, adaptive solutions that resonate with the unique needs of the public sector.

The Role

This is the senior technical seat on the helpdesk team supporting a federal agency. Incidents reach you after Tier 1 and Tier 2 have tried and could not close them, so the work is root-cause analysis and systems administration rather than ticket triage. You support about 2,100 people at headquarters in Washington, DC and 53 field offices nationwide; field IT staff escape to your team when local troubleshooting runs out.

The environment is Microsoft end to end: Microsoft 365, Azure, and Entra ID for productivity and identity; Intune and ManageEngine Endpoint Central for endpoint management and patching; Microsoft Defender for endpoint protection; Windows Server and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server behind the scenes. The desktop fleet is HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad hardware imaged to the U.S. Government Configuration Baseline (USGCB), and the ticketing system is Zendesk. An enterprise migration to Windows 11 runs during the contract, and you are the technical lead for its planning, application testing, configuration, and deployment.

What You’ll Do
  • Take the incidents nobody else could close: advanced troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, and the judgment call on whether an incident is a one-off or the first sign of a system-wide problem
  • Administer Active Directory, Azure, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365: accounts, group policy, permissions, and access controls
  • Write, build, and deploy PowerShell scripts to automate builds, deployments, and routine work across multiple environments
  • Install, update, and patch applications across the enterprise; author and test install scripts; package and integration-test applications
  • Plan and deliver the Windows 11 migration, keeping every agency application working under the USGCB desktop baseline
  • Harden workstations, monitor threats, and work with the agency security operations team on virus scans, malware remediation, and desktop data recovery
  • Support Microsoft 365 products including SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and Power Apps, plus mobile device configuration
  • Monitor network performance and troubleshoot connectivity across LAN and WAN infrastructure
  • Document your work in Zendesk thoroughly enough that another technician or analyst can pick it up without you in the room
What You’ll Need
  • A bachelor’s degree in information technology, computer science, information systems, or a related field, or ten years of relevant professional experience in place of the degree
  • Hands‑on system administration in a Microsoft enterprise environment, including Active Directory, Entra ID, and Microsoft 365
  • PowerShell scripting you have written and shipped, not just edited
  • Endpoint management and patching experience with Intune, ManageEngine Endpoint Central, or comparable tooling
  • Experience serving as the escalation point above Tier 1 and Tier 2 support
  • Clear written documentation habits
Nice to Have
  • A Microsoft role-based certification such as Endpoint Administrator, Azure Administrator, or Microsoft 365 Administrator
  • ITIL v4 Foundations
  • A Windows 10 to Windows 11 enterprise migration you helped deliver
  • Prior support to a federal civilian agency, particularly a small one
  • Experience supporting assistive technology (the environment includes JAWS, Fusion, Dragon, ZoomText, and Duxbury Braille)
  • Comfort with a legacy estate alongside the modern stack: the inventory includes Oracle 11G, HP-UX, PowerBuilder, Kofax, and Livelink
  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server administration
Location, Schedule, and Logistics
  • Standard schedule is an eight-hour day scheduled between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays. Occasional weekend work may come up with advance government approval.
  • On-site at agency headquarters in Washington, DC (NoMa area, Metro-accessible). Telework is by exception only and requires government approval.
  • You will work on a government-furnished laptop. Personal devices cannot connect to the agency network.
  • At least 40 hours per year of paid professional training in your core skill areas, at no cost to you.
  • Occasional travel to agency field offices, reimbursed at federal travel rates
