Role Summary
The Service Engineer II independently resolves more complex issues and assumes full ownership for end-to-end resolution. This role requires stronger technical judgment, efficiency, proactive communication, and disciplined execution in a metric-driven environment. This role may include dedicated client service assignments requiring broad technical execution, independent ownership, and cross-functional collaboration within Executech standards.
- Only Local candidates will be considered*
Key Responsibilities
- Resolve issues beyond Service Engineer I scope across devices, identity, Microsoft 365, networking fundamentals, and core business systems, acting as a consistent technical lead for assigned clients and queues.
- Own tickets end-to-end: client updates, vendor/carrier coordination, resolution confirmation, and handoff when scope spans multiple teams.
- Apply structured troubleshooting and sound judgment on when to proceed independently, escalate, or engage additional resources.
- Use scripting and automation for repeatable tasks (e.g., PowerShell for standard admin actions) within approved standards.
- Support security posture through correct identity verification, suspicious-activity handling, and incident escalation workflows.
- Contribute to operational improvement: surface recurring issues, recommend remediation, and update KB/runbooks.
- Mentor Service Engineer I staff through shadowing, pairing, and high-quality escalation feedback.
- Balance client advocacy with scalability, security, and Executech standards, operating across functional boundaries when needed while adhering to change control, documentation, and escalation practices.
Typical Work Scope (Examples)
- Multi-step M365 administration (licenses, groups, mailbox permissions, SharePoint/Teams access issues) with judgment and minimal supervision.
