· Design and oversee Microsoft Teams: policies, channels, guest access, meetings/calling, and app integrations.

· Design and oversee Exchange Online: mailbox management, distribution groups, email flow rules, anti-spam/quarantine, and transport rules.

· Own core AD/Entra ID governance: user provisioning/deprovisioning automation, group policies, delegated rights models, and synchronization.

· Implement and maintain least-privilege access (RBAC) for support teams and end-users.

· Develop and maintain PowerShell scripts, Microsoft Graph API workflows, and automation for provisioning, reporting, and remediation for endpoints.

· Monitor endpoint health, performance, and compliance; troubleshoot issues and drive proactive improvements.

· Partner with Network team on endpoint-network integration (e.g., Wi-Fi profiles, VPN configs).

· Document processes, create runbooks, and train teams on new standards.

· Ensure endpoint and collaboration configs meet security best practices and regulatory needs (e.g., food safety compliance, data protection).

· Participate in audits, vulnerability remediation, and incident response for managed devices/tenants.
