- Provide support and insight into compliance frameworks like HIPAA, PCI, or SOX
- Participate in onboarding/offboarding activities and co-managed change management processes
- Collaborate with Project Managers and Technical Architects to deliver customer outcomes
- 7+ years of hands-on IT infrastructure experience, including at least 2–3 years managing Azure environments
- Proven experience working in an MSP or co-managed customer setting
- Strong understanding of Azure IaaS services: VMs, VNets, NSGs, Azure Backup, storage
- Familiarity with Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Conditional Access, RBAC, and AAD sync
- Comfortable with scripting and automation tools (PowerShell required, Terraform preferred)
- Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with internal and client-facing teams
- Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) – required or in progress
