Contribute to deployments and upgrades (office builds, Wi-Fi refresh, EDR rollouts, migrations).
Improve automation, self-service, reporting and monitoring through scripting and tooling.
Champion security best practice across patching, hardening, device compliance, and access controls.
What You’ll bring
Strong troubleshooting skills across Windows, Linux, macOS, mobile OS and SaaS platforms.

Comfortable with ITSM/ticketing, change control and documentation.
