Day-to-day management of Microsoft 365, basic PowerShell scripting, patch management and endpoint security (Intune, Defender, CrowdStrike or similar)
Solid grasp of switching, VLANs, Wi-Fi controllers and firewall rules (Cisco / Ubiquiti / Fortinet) with the ability to troubleshoot latency and VPN issues
Familiarity with Autodesk licensing, Adobe CC deployments and CDE platforms (BIM 360, Asite, Aconex) for workstation imaging and updates
Monitoring mindset—using Nagios, PRTG, SolarWinds or similar to keep uptime high and alert fatigue low
