Primary Responsibility:
Serve as the senior technical escalation point for MIRATECH's US IT operations from our Tulsa, OK office, providing deep expertise in systems administration, network infrastructure and complex end-user issues that exceed the scope of the Level 1/2 help desk. The role acts as the resolver of last resort across US sites, partners with global IT teams on cross-region projects, infrastructure changes and security initiatives, and proactively improves the reliability, performance and security of core IT systems. By owning hard-to-solve incidents end-to-end and mentoring the help desk team, the Senior Systems Administrator keeps MIRATECH's US workforce productive and our infrastructure resilient.
What You'll Do:
The core responsibilities of this role include:
- Serve as the Level 3 escalation point for the US Help Desk team, taking ownership of complex incidents that cannot be resolved at Level 1 or Level 2.
- Administer and maintain core server infrastructure including Windows Server, Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, file and print services, Group Policy and virtualization platforms (Hyper-V).
• Design, configure, monitor and troubleshoot enterprise network infrastructure including switches, routers, firewalls, VPNs, and Wi-Fi across US sites. • Manage Microsoft 365, Azure / Entra ID, Intune and other cloud and SaaS platforms at an administrator level, including identity, access, MFA and conditional access policies.
- Support and harden endpoint security tooling (EDR / AV, MFA, patching and vulnerability remediation) and partner with security stakeholders on hardening initiatives.
- Lead root cause analysis for major incidents, document findings and drive permanent fixes through to completion.
- Plan and execute infrastructure changes, upgrades and migrations during scheduled maintenance windows, including out-of-hours work where needed.
- Participate in a shared on-call rotation for critical incidents impacting US offices and escalations from global teams.
- Partner with global IT teams on cross-region projects, standards and architecture decisions, and act as a senior point of escalation for international IT colleagues.
• Mentor Level 1 and Level 2 technicians, develop runbooks and contribute high-quality content to the knowledge base (e.g. IT Glue). • Other duties as assigned.

- Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication; able to translate complex technical issues for non-technical stakeholders, write clear runbooks and lead incident bridges with confidence.
- Organizational Skills: Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment, owning complex incidents end-to-end while balancing project work and mentoring of junior staff.
