  • Support Domain Controller lifecycle management, including builds, upgrades, migrations, and decommissioning.

  • Work with Microsoft Hyper-V to design and manage virtualized Domain Controller environments.

  • Partner with security and infrastructure teams to ensure AD architectures align with enterprise standards and best practices.

  • Document engineering designs, configurations, and automation processes.

  • Track work and progress using Jira and participate in Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, standups, retrospectives).

  • Proven experience building and engineering domain controllers (physical and virtual).

  • Advanced PowerShell scripting skills for automation and engineering workflows.

  • Experience with Domain Controller virtualization strategies and best practices.
