Become the expert you want to be
Do you have the drive and passion to help Belgian SMEs transition to a secure, modern workplace? At Dunetrails, you will work in an ambitious environment where security and compliance are central. Together, we are building a future where companies are both secure and ready for AI.
Your adventure at Dunetrails
As a Junior Managed Services Engineer, you are a key player in managing and securing Microsoft 365 environments. You will have the opportunity to grow, gain hands-on experience, and make a real impact.
What you will do:
Manage and optimize Microsoft 365 environments with a core focus on security and compliance.
Configure and monitor features such as Conditional Access, MFA, Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Office 365, and Microsoft Entra ID.
Resolve incidents and contribute to projects surrounding Identity & Access, Information Protection, and Threat Protection.
Document configurations and advise clients on industry best practices.
Automate processes using PowerShell and build custom scripts to optimize repetitive tasks.
Proactively support clients and collaborate closely with colleagues to deploy clear solutions quickly.
What do we expect from you?
We are looking for an A-player with the right mindset:
someone who is not only technically strong but also driven, eager to learn, and customer-oriented.
You take ownership, show initiative, and find energy in solving complex challenges.
Experience & Knowledge
- 1-2 years of experience in IT support, systems administration, or managing Microsoft 365 environments.
- Certifications: Possessing at least one of these is a major asset:
- MS-102 (Microsoft 365 Administrator)
- MD-102 (Endpoint Administrator)
- SC-300 (Identity and Access Administrator)
- SC-200 (Security Operations Analyst)
- SC-400 (Information Protection Administrator)
- Basic knowledge of PowerShell and automation processes is a plus.
- A keen interest in security features like Defender for Endpoint, Conditional Access, MFA, and Microsoft Entra ID.
Attitude & Skills
- Strong communication skills: You communicate clearly and professionally with both clients and team members.
- Analytical and critical thinking: You can break down complex issues and propose structured solutions.
- Eager to learn and curious: You have a growth mindset and want to continuously expand your technical expertise.
- Flexible and resilient: You can manage multiple fluid priorities and remain calm under pressure.
- Customer-centric focus: You understand that security isn’t just about technology—it’s built on trust and reliable service.
- Startup mindset: You are hands-on and don't shy away from the 'boring work' (writing documentation, taking notes, thorough testing) to deliver top-tier results.
- Commitment to excellence: You strive for high-quality outcomes and are comfortable both seeking and sharing constructive feedback.
Why work at Dunetrails?
At Dunetrails, we don't just assemble standard IT setups. We redefine how modern workplaces are designed: securely, simply, and with a human touch. Our mission is clear: helping Belgian SMEs establish digital spaces that are secure by design, fully compliant, and completely ready for AI.
What makes us unique?
Impact: Your work makes enterprises resilient and shields them against cyber threats. Every configuration and policy you establish directly contributes to a safer digital world.
Growth Opportunities: We believe in a 1% improvement, every single day. You will have the space to study, earn certifications, and advance into specialized paths like Security Specialist or Project Lead.
Culture: No rigid corporate hierarchies here—just a fast-moving, flat startup culture with short lines of communication, high responsibility, and a supportive team. We operate with rhythm, not chaos.
Innovation: We lean heavily into cutting-edge Microsoft technologies and automate with sharp intention. We view complexity as a liability and simplicity as our core strategy.
People-First: We protect people, not just machines. There is no room for a burnout culture here; instead, we prioritize focus, structured reflection, and proper recovery.
Learning & Building Together: We believe that development is a collective milestone, not just an individual one. You will work in a team that naturally shares knowledge, empowers one another, and celebrates wins together. Collaboration always overrides competition.
