- Build, configure, harden, test, and validate current supported Windows Server target environments in accordance with E-Comm standards, cybersecurity requirements, availability needs, and operational practices.
- Execute hands-on Windows Server upgrades, server migrations, replatforming activities, workload transitions, application/server cutovers, rollback procedures, and post-migration validation.
- Support Azure IaaS migration activities including Azure readiness, VM sizing, migration planning, evaluating Azure-cloud services, landing zone dependencies, Azure Migrate inputs, Azure Arc considerations, hybrid connectivity, monitoring, backup, identity integration, and operational handoff.
- Support target-state planning for workloads remaining on-premises, moving to Azure IaaS, being replatformed, upgraded, consolidated, retired, or replaced.
- Implement or validate server hardening, Microsoft Defender onboarding, SCCM enrolment, vulnerability remediation, logging, monitoring, access control, local administrator controls, privileged access practices, and baseline configuration.
- Support high availability and resiliency improvements, including clustering, load balancing considerations, backup/restore validation, disaster recovery planning, recovery testing, failover procedures, and operational readiness.
- Support integration with Active Directory, Entra ID / Azure AD, DNS, DHCP, certificates, monitoring tools, backup platforms, virtualization platforms, storage, Azure services, ServiceNow, CMDB, and change management processes.
- Develop technical runbooks for server build/configuration, migration execution, patching, monitoring, backup/restore, failover, disaster recovery, troubleshooting, and operational support.
- Produce as-built documentation, configuration standards, implementation plans, validation evidence, cutover/rollback documentation, support procedures, decommissioning records, and transition-to-operations materials.
- Coordinate with infrastructure, cybersecurity, application, cloud, identity, ServiceNow, vendor, and business teams to align migration sequencing, change windows, testing, communications, and operational acceptance.
- Support change management, release readiness, hypercare, incident remediation, knowledge transfer, and sustainment after server migration or modernization activities.
