About The Position

The high level Windows Engineer is responsible for the engineering, automation, reliability, security, and lifecycle management of our client's enterprise Microsoft infrastructure platforms across corporate, distribution center, and stores. This role shares ownership over the design and operational integrity of Windows Server, Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft 365, Azure infrastructure services, VMware-based workloads, backup and recovery, storage integration, monitoring, and related core infrastructure services. The role partners closely with security, network, cloud, application, database, endpoint, and operations teams to ensure Microsoft ecosystem remains secure, performant, scalable, supportable, and aligned to business needs. The role also provides technical direction and delivery coordination across internal teams and managed services partners including offshore technical resources to ensure handoffs, escalations, service quality, and platform outcomes remain aligned to operational standards and business priorities. This is an engineering role, not an operations role. Candidate must have the mindset of someone who designs, builds, and tests repeatedly — not someone who just carries out a process. Specifically looking for someone who has worked in a small environment wearing many hats AND has transitioned into a large enterprise environment. This brings a unique set of skills and perspective.
