IT Infrastructure Administrator (m/f/d)

interface projects GmbH is a Dresden-based software company focusing on Enterprise Search, Machine Learning, and Generative AI. Our product INTERGATOR is a semantic Enterprise Search used in industry, government agencies, and research institutions.

For our internal IT, we are looking for reinforcement with a clear focus on Microsoft, Microsoft 365, End Devices, and User Support.

Responsibilities

• You will take responsibility for the reliable operation and continuous development of our internal IT.
• You will ensure that our colleagues can work securely and reliably – from user accounts to PCs and notebooks, to Microsoft 365, Teams, telephony, and the necessary access and permissions.
• Together with the infrastructure team, you will be responsible for operating our heterogeneous IT landscape, with a particular focus on the Microsoft and Windows infrastructure: Windows Server and Clients, Active Directory, Entra ID, Microsoft 365, Exchange, Intune, Teams, SharePoint, Dynamics, and related services.
• Within the admin team, you will complement each other in terms of expertise: Your focus will be on our internal company IT with a special emphasis on central Microsoft services, users, and end devices. Your colleagues will contribute their focus areas in Linux, virtualization, and Kubernetes.
• You will manage our end devices throughout their entire lifecycle – from selection and procurement to setup, software distribution, and updates, up to decommissioning.
• You will analyze malfunctions and problems, coordinate their resolution, and work closely with your admin colleagues, our DevOps team, and other technical contacts. For us, the principle is: You don't have to solve every problem alone, but you ensure that it gets solved.
• You will actively shape our IT infrastructure, identify potential for improvement, and independently develop existing solutions, processes, and standards further.
• You will automate recurring administrative tasks and ensure that our IT can grow with the company.
• You will keep an eye on topics such as permissions, security, updates, backup, monitoring, licenses, and lifecycles of our systems and independently initiate necessary measures.
• You will ensure comprehensible and up-to-date documentation of systems, configurations, and essential operational processes.

Qualifications

• You have completed training as an IT specialist for system integration, a corresponding degree, or a comparable qualification.
• You have several years of professional experience in the administration and support of professional IT infrastructures.
• You possess sound practical experience in the Microsoft ecosystem, particularly in several of the areas: Windows Server, Active Directory, Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Exchange, Intune, Teams, or SharePoint.
• You are familiar with the administration of Windows clients and have experience with endpoint management, software distribution, patch management, or comparable tasks.
• You have a solid understanding of networks, firewalls, VPN, virtualization, backup, and the fundamental interrelationships of modern IT infrastructures.
• You have already automated administrative processes using PowerShell or other tools.
• You have very good German and good English language skills.
  (Native German speaker or at least level C)

What else is important to us

• You understand administration not just as completing individual tasks, but feel responsible for the functioning and further development of your area.
• You can independently set priorities and distinguish between a quick pragmatic solution and a sustainable improvement.
• You enjoy working broadly and maintain an overview even when a problem affects multiple systems or areas of responsibility.
• You enjoy working with specialists, respect their expertise, and coordinate closely and constructively with them.
• You enjoy direct contact with colleagues and can clearly explain technical contexts.
• You are open and communicative and enjoy working in a team.
• You want to continuously develop yourself and are enthusiastic about new technologies and knowledge.

Benefits
