The M365/Azure Cloud Engineer position is a senior technology role that reports to the IT Manager of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure. This role is designed for a subject matter expert (SME) in Microsoft 365 and Azure, who will play a crucial role in enabling various IT functions including Architecture, Engineering, Operations, Security, and project management teams. The engineer will facilitate the successful delivery of complex initiatives and priorities within the organization. The position is remote but requires adherence to East Coast hours (8-5 EST) and may involve travel to New York for training and onboarding. In this role, the engineer will be responsible for designing, implementing, and managing solutions within the Azure cloud environment, which includes Azure Virtual Desktops (AVDs), Identity, and Storage resources. The engineer will also administer and support the Microsoft 365 suite, which encompasses Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Teams, Intune, and OneDrive for Business. Collaboration with IT security teams is essential to implement and maintain security best practices across Azure and Microsoft 365 platforms, ensuring compliance with established security standards and policies. The M365/Azure Cloud Engineer will act as an operational resource, monitoring, repairing, and remediating issues that frontline troubleshooting cannot resolve. Responsibilities also include training and educating frontline support teams to assist with customer issue resolution. Staying updated on the latest Azure services and technologies is crucial, as is the practical understanding of network infrastructure, including firewalls, routers, and application gateways. The engineer will lead the operation, configuration, and monitoring of cloud infrastructure and resources, configure and manage monitoring, alerting, and reporting of key performance indicators, and perform scheduled maintenance and updates.
