- Perform basic troubleshooting by reviewing IIS access/error logs and Windows application/system event logs to diagnose service failures, configuration errors, and performance issues
- Troubleshoot server, application, and network issues in both on-premises and cloud environments
- Maintain system documentation, runbooks, and change management records
Security & Compliance
- Apply security hardening standards (CIS benchmarks, STIGs) to servers and infrastructure
- Respond to vulnerability scan findings and remediate within defined SLA windows
- Support audit and compliance activities (SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, or as applicable)
- Manage secrets and credential rotation for service accounts, certificates, and API keys
