I have led and supported teams of up to 30 people, reducing costs, increasing performance after a specific monitoring strategy, and resolving issues. I work with technologies such as Azure, Entra ID, InTune, SCCM, Active Directory, GPO. I still love Windows Server also in cloud times, and use IIS as application server. While on prem we are still in needing of taking care of DNS and DHCP, keeping an eye on cyber security with knowledge of TCP/IP and usage of Firewall. My favorite database is SQL Server.
