Asset Tracking & Procurement: Maintain accurate IT asset inventories, track hardware throughout its usage, and coordinate procurement and logistics with vendors.
SaaS, Identity & Security: Administer enterprise SaaS platforms (Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Google Workspace) while managing access controls, SSO, MFA, licensing, endpoint security, and compliance.
Projects & Process Automation: Lead IT operational projects and cross-functional initiatives (HR, Finance, Security, Ops) to drive automation, process efficiency, and technical documentation.
