Role Identity The Proactive Technical Alignment Engineer (TAE) is the disciplined guardian of GXA’s technical standards. They ensure client environments remain aligned, secure, and predictable—building the foundation that allows vCTOs to focus on strategy, relationships, and growth. This role thrives on structure, detail, and accuracy. TAEs are independent problem-solvers, data-driven in their work, and relentless in their pursuit of documentation excellence. They are not client-facing strategists; instead, they are the behind-the-scenes technical stewards who make vCTO conversations possible. To be successful, a TAE must bring very strong, senior-level Systems Engineer (Sr. SE) technical skills —able to operate at an L3 level across Windows Server, Active Directory/Entra ID, Office 365, Azure, virtualization, networking, Intune, endpoint compliance, and conditional access. Summary The ideal TAE is not a generalist firefighter —they are a specialized engineer with discipline and precision. They excel in environments where documentation, process, and accuracy are paramount. They thrive in the background, supplying the intelligence that allows vCTOs to shine in front of clients. They are guardians of standards, custodians of documentation, and analysts of technical data. Their work reduces noise, strengthens security, and ensures GXA delivers consistent, proactive service across every client.

Detect misalignments in firewalls, backups, licensing, server health, Microsoft 365, and endpoint compliance. Provide structured reports to vCTOs with risks, gaps, and recommendations. Handle support escalations requiring L3 technical knowledge. Ensure proactive alignment and remediation in the following core areas: Windows Server & Active Directory/Entra ID – Validate domain health, replication, GPOs, DNS/DHCP configuration, user/role management, and Entra ID synchronization. Office 365 & Azure – Review configuration, licensing, security policies, conditional access, and backup solutions; ensure compliance with best practices. Virtualization (VMware/Hyper-V) – Monitor host/server health, cluster configurations, storage, networking, and failover capabilities. Networking (LAN/WAN, VLANs, Firewalls, VPNs) – Verify firewall rules, VLAN segmentation, site-to-site/client VPNs, and monitoring for security or performance anomalies. Endpoint Management (Intune, Compliance & Conditional Access) – Review device enrollment, compliance policies, Intune configurations, patch/update compliance, and conditional access enforcement. Documentation Excellence Maintain and improve documentation in IT Glue and Autotask. Eliminate inconsistencies and ensure “single source of truth” across all client environments. Create repeatable playbooks and process documentation for future reuse. Analysis & Standards Enforcement Identify systemic issues and recurring misalignments across multiple clients.
