  • Perform routine maintenance and troubleshooting on Windows Server and VMware infrastructure
  • Identify root causes of recurring issues and implement lasting fixes
  • Write and maintain clear knowledge base articles for Tier 1 and end users
  • Prioritize and manage escalated tickets according to business impact and SLA commitments

  • Manages remote support, device inventory, and compliance reporting

Networking
  • Troubleshoots TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, Wi-Fi, VLANs, VPNs, routing basics, network-printer connectivity, and remote-site issues
  • Experience with ipconfig, ping, nslookup, tracert, Test-NetConnection, and packet/log evidence rather than guesswork

File Access
  • Distinguish SMB share permissions from NTFS permissions
  • Identifies group-based access, inheritance breaks, explicit deny entries, and effective-access problems

Security
  • Recognizes phishing, malware/EDR alerts, risky sign-ins, MFA failures, local admin exposure, weak permissions, and certificate/encryption issues
  • Escalates potential incidents promptly while preserving evidence
