  • Partner with Infrastructure teams, Service Management, Compliance, Vendor Management, and platform owners
  • Facilitate discovery workshops, demos, and adoption sessions
  • Define KPIs and value metrics (cycle time, quality improvement, compliance adherence)
  • Produce governance playbooks, SOPs, and training materials to enable scale

  • M365 Integration: Outlook, SharePoint, Teams, Planner, OneDrive
  • working knowledge of Graph API
  • ALM & DevOps: Solution packaging, environment strategy, CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps/GitHub), automated testing, monitoring
