  • Good understanding of the interaction between hardware, firmware, operating system, drivers and software
  • Software and driver packaging for automated installation (MSI, Wix)
  • "Tweaking" of Windows to meet specific requirements
  • Development of modules and scripts in Powershell
  • Windows security (OS hardening, firewall, network)
  • Windows policies (poledit)
  • Patching and upgrading Windows OS (MSU, WSUS)
  • License management / activation for Windows, "best practice" (KMS)
  • Easier MSSQL Server administration (installation, backup, recovery - DBA not necessary)
  • General troubleshooting in Windows, such as performance issues
  • Deeper troubleshooting when problems occur in operating systems or interfaces to applications

It is an additional qualification if you have worked with:

  • Ansible or other CM systems such as Chef, Puppet, Salt or similar
