ROLE DESCRIPTION
Form Energy's IT Engineering & Platforms team owns the tools, platforms, and identity infrastructure that the whole company runs on — Microsoft 365, Azure/Entra, Atlassian, Google Workspace, Slack, and the integration layers connecting them to name a few. As Senior Microsoft 365 & Azure Engineer, you will take deep technical ownership of our Microsoft ecosystem. This role picks up and grows a substantial body of existing work — Intune deployment, Autopilot rollout, Azure entitlement management, and device/BYOD governance — and takes it further as Form Energy scales.
This is a hybrid role, which will require working onsite from our office in Somerville, MA 3+ days per week.
Relocation assistance is available.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Own and evolve our Microsoft Intune environment: policy design, compliance baselines, app deployment, and troubleshooting across a growing device fleet.
- Lead ongoing Windows Autopilot operations and improvements — provisioning profiles, enrollment experience, and zero-touch deployment at scale.
- Manage and expand our Azure Entra entitlement program, including access reviews, conditional access policy, and identity governance as the company grows.
- Own SharePoint architecture and governance — site/hub structure, permissions models, information architecture, and lifecycle management as SharePoint scales as a core collaboration platform.
- Develop and maintain BYOD and device policy frameworks, including work with external consulting companies and contractors.
- Write and maintain technical playbooks and runbooks for the M365/Azure ecosystem so operational knowledge is documented and repeatable, not tribal.
- Design and implement automation using Microsoft Graph API and Power Automate to reduce manual toil across identity, device management, SharePoint provisioning, and M365 administration.
- Partner with the Risk & Cybersecurity vertical on shared concerns (device compliance, conditional access, identity security) while maintaining clear operational ownership on the Engineering & Platforms side.
- Serve as the platform-level escalation point for complex identity, device, or M365 configuration issues that go beyond day-to-day support (day-to-day support, break/fix, and ticket resolution remain owned by IT Operations).
- Evaluate new Microsoft ecosystem capabilities (e.g., Copilot, Intune Suite features) and recommend adoption paths.
- Contribute to the team's platform inventory, documentation, and knowledge base as we formalize operating processes.
- Participate in Incident Response activities as needed.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING:
- 5+ years in a Microsoft 365/Azure engineering or systems administration role, with real depth (not just admin-console familiarity).
- Hands-on production experience with Intune — policy authoring, app deployment, troubleshooting at scale.
- Direct experience implementing or operating Windows Autopilot.
- Working knowledge of Azure Entra ID (Azure AD) — entitlement management, conditional access, access reviews.
- Strong hands-on SharePoint management experience — site architecture, permissions/governance, hub sites, and information architecture at an organizational scale.
- Experience developing device/security policy for hybrid environments, including contractor or third-party device scenarios (BYOD).
- Strong scripting/automation skills, with demonstrated Microsoft Graph API experience for automating identity, device, and M365 workflows.
- Hands-on experience building and maintaining Power Automate flows for business process automation across M365/Azure.
- Track record of writing clear technical documentation — playbooks, runbooks, SOPs.
- Comfortable operating with autonomy and moving quickly; able to design a solution and implement it.
- Experience collaborating across security/risk and engineering boundaries without conflating the two.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with Microsoft Copilot deployment or AI governance in a Microsoft ecosystem.
- Familiarity with Google Workspace or multi-IdP environments (useful context for Form Energy's hybrid M365/Google setup).
- Exposure to manufacturing, hardware, or engineering-heavy companies where IT supports both corporate and plant/lab environments.
- Experience with SCIM provisioning or identity sync across platforms (e.g., Slack, Atlassian).
