This role may include dedicated client service assignments requiring broad technical execution, independent ownership, and cross-functional collaboration within Executech standards.

***Only Local candidates will be considered***Key Responsibilities
  • Resolve issues beyond Service Engineer I scope across devices, identity, Microsoft 365, networking fundamentals, and core business systems, acting as a consistent technical lead for assigned clients and queues.
  • Own tickets end-to-end: client updates, vendor/carrier coordination, resolution confirmation, and handoff when scope spans multiple teams.
  • Apply structured troubleshooting and sound judgment on when to proceed independently, escalate, or engage additional resources.
  • Use scripting and automation for repeatable tasks (e.g., PowerShell for standard admin actions) within approved standards.
  • Support security posture through correct identity verification, suspicious-activity handling, and incident escalation workflows.
  • Contribute to operational improvement: surface recurring issues, recommend remediation, and update KB/runbooks.
  • Mentor Service Engineer I staff through shadowing, pairing, and high-quality escalation feedback.
  • Balance client advocacy with scalability, security, and Executech standards, operating across functional boundaries when needed while adhering to change control, documentation, and escalation practices.
Typical Work Scope (Examples)
  • Multi-step M365 administration (licenses, groups, mailbox permissions, SharePoint/Teams access issues) with judgment and minimal supervision.
  • Endpoint and device management (Intune policies, device compliance basics, BitLocker recovery, Autopilot resets) within SOP.
  • Identity and access management troubleshooting (Conditional Access impacts, SSO issues, MFA/Authenticator edge cases).
  • Backup/DR and security tooling triage (agent health, failed jobs, initial containment actions per incident SOP).
  • PSA/RMM improvements: suggests workflow fixes; flags recurring issue trends with evidence.
Performance Expectations (KPIs)
  • SLA compliance: 60; 90% (rolling 90-day).
  • CSAT: 60; 97% positive (rolling 90-day).

  • Billable efficiency: 60; 80% billable efficiency (rolling 90-day).

  • Comfortable performing intermediate troubleshooting across multiple systems and documenting evidence.
  • Working knowledge of PowerShell fundamentals and willingness to build safe automation (reviewed/approved).
Certification Expectations
  • Hold (or actively pursue) one Microsoft role-based certification aligned to daily responsibilities (e.g., MD-102 or MS-102).
  • AZ-104 is recommended for engineers working regularly in Azure/M365 administration and is required for Senior promotion readiness.
  • (Equivalent experience may be considered where appropriate.)
IMPACT Expectations
