About the Client
InCommon is hiring on behalf of a client, an Australian-owned Managed Service Provider (MSP) headquartered in Melbourne. Our client runs day-to-day IT operations for mid-market customers across infrastructure, cloud, security, and Microsoft 365, keeping their environments secure, available, and performing to agreed service levels, 24x7.
Mandatory Requirement
This role is open only to candidates with hands-on experience at a Managed Services Provider (MSP) or in a small-to-mid sized IT environment supporting multiple customers under SLA.
About the Role
Our client's team is small, so there are no separate teams to hand tickets to. As an Operations Engineer, you'll own issues end to end, from the first alert through investigation, fix and root cause. You'll work across four areas: Azure cloud, network, security and end-user device management. We're looking for someone with strong, L3-level depth in one of these areas and solid L2 skills across the rest. Alongside incident work, you'll go deeper in your specialist area, audit customer environments and recommend improvements.

<li>End-User Device Management
: Manage devices through Microsoft Intune, including enrollment, compliance policies and app deployment.</li>
<li>Microsoft 365 &amp; Identity:
Support Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint and Entra ID (MFA, Conditional Access).</li>
<li>Maintenance:
Run patching and backups, implement approved changes, and keep configuration records accurate.</li>
<li>Proactive Improvement:
Audit customer environments, tune alerts, find recurring issues and recommend fixes.</li>
<li>Customer Communication:
Keep customers informed during incidents with clear, timely updates.</li>
<li>Documentation:

</ul>
What We're Looking For

<li>3 to 6 years of hands-on IT infrastructure experience at an MSP or in a small-to-mid IT environment supporting multiple customers.</li>
<li>Strong depth in at least one of: Azure cloud, network, security (Defender, XDR, EDR, SIEM) or end-user device management (Intune, Autopilot).</li>
<li>Working skills across the other areas, plus Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Windows Server and Active Directory.</li>
<li>Experience with backups (Veeam, Azure Backup or similar) and patch management.</li>
<li>Experience with an RMM or monitoring tool and ITIL-based ticketing.</li>
<li>A track record of owning issues end to end, with strong critical thinking.</li>
<li>Ability to pick up new tools quickly, since each customer runs a different stack.</li>
