System Administrator

RGBSI is a global engineering services company with nearly three decades of experience delivering solutions across mechanical design, simulation, embedded electronics, manufacturing, and regulatory compliance. We support customers in automotive, aerospace and defense, and industrial markets, and our staffing division, Zobility, places technical talent at leading enterprises worldwide.

Position Summary

We are seeking a hands-on System Administrator to own and operate RGBSI’s core IT infrastructure and end-user computing environment from our Troy, MI headquarters. This is a hybrid role spanning traditional sysadmin work (Active Directory, Windows Server, network) with cloud identity and endpoint management (Azure, Microsoft 365, Intune), plus day-to-day IT generalist responsibilities including helpdesk, onboarding/offboarding, and endpoint support.

The ideal candidate brings a strong learning mindset and excellent communication skills. They are technically deep across hybrid AD/M365 environments, methodical about security and documentation, and equally comfortable troubleshooting a user's laptop as they are reviewing firewall rules or designing an Intune compliance policy.

Serve as escalation point for Tier 2/3 helpdesk tickets across hardware, software, identity, and connectivity issues.

Provide hands-on support to onsite Troy staff and remote support to other RGBSI offices.

Maintain documentation, knowledge base articles, and standard operating procedures.

Support conference room AV, printers, and shared office technology.

Automation & Continuous Improvement

Automate routine administration using PowerShell, Microsoft Graph, and Intune scripting.

Identify opportunities to reduce manual work, improve security posture, and standardize configurations.

Maintain accurate asset inventory, license records, and infrastructure documentation.

Required Qualifications

5+ years of progressive system administration experience in a Windows-centric enterprise environment.

Active, daily use of AI tools and technologies (e.g., Microsoft Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, and similar assistants) is required.

Hands-on working knowledge of enterprise cybersecurity tooling, including CrowdStrike (endpoint detection & response), Zscaler (secure web gateway / ZTNA), and Mimecast (email security and archiving) — able to administer policies, investigate alerts, and coordinate with security stakeholders.

Solid understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals: identity hardening, MFA, conditional access, patching, and endpoint protection.

Demonstrated experience administering Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams) and Azure AD / Entra ID.
