• Support system stability and reliability across enterprise networks and SaaS platforms. 

• Collaboration & Strategic Support 

• Partner with IT, compliance, and business teams to integrate security best practices into daily operations and project workflows. 

• Serve as a technical lead during incident response efforts, including documentation, colleague communication, and root cause analysis. 

• Collaborate with third-party vendors for tool evaluation, contract review, and ongoing vendor management. 

• Manage cloud-based applications and infrastructure including Azure AD, Microsoft 365, and enterprise SaaS platforms.
