• Expert-level administration experience with Microsoft Teams and Zoom, including Meeting Room platforms (Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms) and their management consoles.

• Demonstrated experience designing and implementing AV systems across a range of room types, including large, complex spaces.
