IT Administrator
- IT Administrator with 6+ years supporting Windows-based environments, endpoints, and SaaS apps; known for quick troubleshooting and reliable user support.
- ABC Manufacturing - IT Administrator (2021-Present): Administer Windows Server 2016/2019, Active Directory, DNS, and DHCP for 2 sites; handle user onboarding/offboarding and permissions.
- Reduced recurring helpdesk tickets by standardizing imaging and deploying updates via SCCM; kept endpoints current.
- Migrated file shares to SharePoint Online and OneDrive; improved collaboration for departments.
- Implemented Veeam backups for a VMware environment and performed regular restore tests; ensured data was protected.
- Monitor network and security using SolarWinds and Microsoft Defender; respond to issues and document fixes.
Overview
- Add scale and measurable outcomes (users, endpoints, servers, ticket volume, downtime avoided).
- Make project bullets specific about scope, timelines, and what changed after your work.
- Use stronger action/result wording (what improved, by how much, and how you verified it).
Suggestions
Upgrade the infrastructure admin bullet with concrete scope (user count, server count, site size) and what you owned day-to-day. Example rewrite: "Administered AD/DNS/DHCP and 18 Windows Server 2016/2019 VMs supporting ~320 users across 2 plants; owned provisioning, GPOs, file/print access, and join/leave process."
Your current bullet lists core technologies, but hiring managers need scale and ownership to gauge complexity and seniority.

"Administer Windows Server 2016/2019, Active Directory, DNS, and DHCP for 2 sites; handle user onboarding/offboarding and permissions."
Replace the vague ticket-improvement claim with a metric and what changed operationally. Example rewrite: "Standardized Windows imaging (MDT) and patching via SCCM for 260 endpoints, reducing repeat build/patch tickets from ~45/mo to ~25/mo within 3 months."
"Reduced recurring helpdesk tickets" and "kept endpoints current" are credible, but the impact is hard to evaluate without baseline and volume.

"Reduced recurring helpdesk tickets by standardizing imaging and deploying updates via SCCM; kept endpoints current."
Add migration scope and success criteria (data volume, number of users, cutover approach, and outcome). Example rewrite: "Migrated 1.8TB of department file shares (Finance/HR/Operations) to SharePoint Online/OneDrive for 140 users; executed permissions mapping and cutover with <2 hours downtime."
Cloud migration is a strong project, but "improved collaboration" is generic without specifics about what was moved and how success was measured.
Referenced resume text
"Migrated file shares to SharePoint Online and OneDrive; improved collaboration for departments."
Make backups/security bullets measurable and tie them to reliability targets. Example rewrite: "Deployed Veeam for 12 VMware VMs (daily incremental, weekly full) achieving 4-hour RPO; ran quarterly restore tests and documented results." And for monitoring: "Triaged SolarWinds/Defender alerts, closing P1 incidents within 30 minutes on average; created runbooks for common events (disk, service down, malware)."
Backups and monitoring are table stakes for IT Admin roles; metrics (RPO/RTO, restore cadence, response time) show maturity and operational rigor.

"Implemented Veeam backups for a VMware environment and performed regular restore tests; ensured data was protected." / "Monitor network and security using SolarWinds and Microsoft Defender; respond to issues and document fixes."
