If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

Kymanox is looking for an IT Operations & Applications Administrator to keep our Microsoft environment running smoothly day to day. The bulk of this role is Microsoft 365 and Azure administration — managing users and access, keeping systems healthy, and handling the routine tasks that keep a modern cloud workplace running. You'll be a go-to person for Microsoft-related requests across the company.

Alongside that, you'll lend a hand with our suite of custom internal applications — helping users with questions, managing their accounts and permissions, and giving new features a test before they go out. You don't need deep experience with those applications; the engineering team owns them, and you'll pick things up as you go.

We're looking for someone dependable and detail-oriented who's comfortable learning new tools quickly and enjoys being the person who keeps everything ticking. Strong communication matters — you'll work with users at every level and translate their requests into clear, actionable next steps.

Responsibilities:

• Microsoft 365 & Azure Administration (primary focus)
  1. Administer Microsoft 365 — Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint, and license management
  2. Manage users, groups, and access in Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory)
  3. Handle device enrollment and policies in Intune mobile device management
  4. Support Azure-based Windows servers and day-to-day cloud configuration
  5. Perform routine monitoring — check that systems are healthy, review logs, and confirm scheduled jobs completed
  6. Work helpdesk tickets: resolve Microsoft and general IT requests, and escalate the rest with clear detail
     
     
• Custom Internal Application Support (secondary)
  1. Serve as a friendly point of contact for users of our suite of custom internal applications
  2. Manage user accounts, permissions, and access requests within these custom internal applications
  3. Give new features and updates to the custom applications a quick test before they reach users, and report issues clearly to engineering
  4. Keep simple how-to guides and admin notes for the custom internal applications up to date
  5. General IT, Networking & Security Support
  6. Support LAN and WLAN equipment and general office IT (conference rooms, printers, desk phones)
  7. Follow and help enforce Kymanox's cybersecurity and standard operating procedures
  8. Coordinate with vendors and manage service providers when outside help is needed
     
• General IT, Networking & Security Support
  1. Support LAN and WLAN equipment and general office IT (conference rooms, printers, desk phones)
  2. Follow and help enforce Kymanox's cybersecurity and standard operating procedures
  3. Coordinate with vendors and managed service providers when outside help is needed
