Collaboration & Documentation

  • Coordinate with L1 for handover and knowledge sharing; support L3 during deeper investigations.

  • Keep tickets up to date with clear troubleshooting notes, evidence, and user communication.

  • Create and maintain knowledge articles and runbooks to improve L1 enablement and first-time fix.

  • Monitor endpoint update/patch compliance and coordinate remediation or escalation as needed.

  • Follow and continuously improve operational procedures.

Security & Compliance

  • Apply security standards and report potential risks or misconfigurations.

  • Triage Defender for Endpoint alerts for end-user devices (validate, guide containment, collect evidence) and escalate to Security when required.

  • Support Entra ID controls (MFA, SSPR, access reviews) within agreed procedures.

  • Support audits and compliance activities when required.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s Degree (or equivalent experience).

  • 3-5 years of relevant experience (enterprise and/or consulting preferred).

  • Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365, Microsoft Entra, and Windows 11.

  • Experience with PowerShell and Graph API is considered a plus.

  • Experience with Microsoft Teams, Video Rooms and telephony is considered a plus.
