You’re the type of engineer who thrives on owning a problem end-to-end, whether it’s a password reset or an Intune policy that’s misbehaving at 2am. You’re confident across 1st and 2nd line support, and you don’t panic when something breaks, you calmly get stuck in and fix it.
This is your chance to join a growing business that’s delivering impactful work across cloud, data, and digital transformation. You’ll play a key role in supporting their end users across Microsoft 365, Intune, Azure, Power Platform, and Windows Server, all while working evening or night shifts as part of their 24/7 team.
