Partner with SharePoint Collaboration Engineer to deliver integrated, comprehensive M365 collaboration capabilities. Support mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships by integrating new organizations, federating external directories, and enabling secure guest access. Implement and maintain email security controls, including spam/malware filtering, phishing protection, and domain integrity (DMARC, DKIM, SPF, CAN-SPAM). Provide advanced troubleshooting and serve as an escalation point for messaging and collaboration-related incidents. Create and maintain detailed documentation, process guides, and knowledge-sharing materials for cross-functional IT teams. Participate in disaster recovery and business continuity planning and testing for email and collaboration systems.
