About The Position

TEKsystems is helping a customer identify an Azure Administrator to join their team. This person will be focused on Azure Administration, Windows Administration, and should be familiar with general networking and identity principles as this is a small team who all work collaboratively and support each other. They are very new to their Azure journey and their MSP set up the Landing Zone and is helping to build out the initial architecture, but the existing team members do not have experience with Azure so this person will be the primary owner of Azure in their environment. They will be able to lean on the MSP for guidance, but this new addition should be comfortable working fairly independently and be familiar with how to configure servers/networking in Azure. "The role of the Infrastructure Systems Administrator (ISA) is to provide a technical reliable work environment for multi-user systems, providing the means for optimal performance and reliability of the server, network, and cyber systems. The ISA is responsible for provisioning, installation/configuration, operation and maintenance of server and network operating software and related infrastructure. This role participates in technical research and development to enable continuing innovation within the infrastructure. This role ensures that server operating systems, software systems and related procedures support the foundation’s goals. This role requires proficiency in both Windows and Linux operating systems, the Microsoft Azure Cloud Infrastructure and Entra ID platforms as well as account concepts and have knowledge of cloud technologies, network infrastructure and cybersecurity protection concepts."
