A remote individual-contributor role responsible for administering a Microsoft 365 tenant and Entra ID environment, with a near-term focus on integrating the company's SaaS portfolio into SSO and building automated access provisioning workflows. The position also covers Intune-based endpoint management, SOC 2 compliance support, AI tool governance, and an active share of Tier 2/3 helpdesk work. It suits an experienced IT systems engineer comfortable owning complex infrastructure problems independently.

Why we read it this way (8)
The salary is posted as a single flat figure ($100,000/year) with no range.
The role is fully remote but restricted to US-based candidates; no specific metro is listed.
SOC classification is a judgment call: the role primarily operates and administers existing Microsoft/SaaS infrastructure (M365, Entra ID, Intune, helpdesk escalations) rather than building net-new software, pointing to 15-1244. However, the meaningful scripting/automation component (PowerShell, Graph API, SCIM workflows) and security-adjacent work (SOC 2, DLP, Conditional Access) make 15-1212 a plausible runner-up.
Seniority is assessed as Mid despite the 4–6 year requirement and 'senior technical resource' framing: the role is a single IC on a small team with no org-wide scope, and the experience band (4–6 years) aligns with mid-level. The title carries no explicit seniority label.
Graph API experience is listed in the qualifications section with 'a plus' language, so it is treated as preferred despite appearing near required skills.
Jamf and Kandji are listed as a plus for macOS MDM and are treated as preferred; Intune (Windows MDM) is explicitly required.
Microsoft certifications (MS-102, AZ-104, SC-300), Microsoft Purview, AI tool governance experience, government/public safety background, and FedRAMP familiarity are all explicitly called out as 'a plus' and are treated as preferred.
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are mentioned as responsibilities but framed as operational tasks rather than named skill gates in the qualifications section; they are omitted per the generic-concept rule (no distinct tool named).
