• Hands-on experience or familiarity with Active Directory (user creation, modification, permissions, groups).
• A+ CompTIA certification preferred.
• Bachelor’s degree required (business, information systems, IT, cybersecurity, or related fields preferred).
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision, especially when managing large datasets.
• Familiarity with audit principles, segregation of duties (SoD), and risk controls.
