• Troubleshoot Quest and Microsoft 365 migration issues independently, including synchronization, identity, permissions, mail flow, coexistence, and cutover challenges.
• Coordinate with identity, messaging, collaboration, security, endpoint, networking, and business stakeholders.
• Support pre-migration discovery, pilot migrations, production cutovers, post-migration validation, and issue resolution.
• Document migration decisions, lessons learned, operating procedures, and technical recommendations.
