- Deploy, monitor, and maintain internal infrastructure used across the organization; proactively identify and act on opportunities for improvement
- Diagnose and resolve hardware and software issues across the organization with urgency and clear communication
- Administer enterprise network environments including TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls, and VPNs
- Develop automation scripts using PowerShell, Python, or Bash to eliminate manual work and improve operational efficiency
- Apply cybersecurity best practices including patch management, endpoint protection, and regular access audits

- Proficiency in scripting and automation (PowerShell, Python, Bash)
- Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills with the ability to triage and prioritize effectively
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills - ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders, work effectively with vendors, and collaborate across teams
