• Serve as an escalation point for complex server and infrastructure incidents; perform root-cause analysis and drive corrective/preventive actions.
• Identify, prioritize, and remediate security vulnerabilities for Windows/Linux servers and associated infrastructure in collaboration with Security and site teams.
• Document risk, remediation approach, and dates/ownership for remediation when actions depend on external entities.
• Maintain and improve monitoring, backup/restore processes, and performance tuning; validate recoverability through periodic restore testing.
• Automate routine tasks and operational workflows using PowerShell and command-line tooling; contribute to runbooks and operational documentation.
• Follow ITIL-aligned incident, problem, change, and request processes; keep tickets, documentation, and diagrams current.
• Coordinate with internal infrastructure teams (network, security, application, end-user services) and vendors to deliver deployments, upgrades, and troubleshooting.
• Support and/or run smaller projects and lifecycle initiatives such as site changes, cloud provisioning, new application deployments or upgrades, and standardization of server builds/configurations.
