• Participate in Modern Work project implementations, from technical planning and configuration through testing, deployment, and post-deployment support.
• Review existing client environments and recommend improvements to security, performance, manageability, and user experience.
• Collaborate with service desk teams, junior engineers, project stakeholders, and clients to ensure successful technical delivery.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and support teams.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, configuration standards, implementation guides, and troubleshooting procedures.
