Design and manage pooled (multi-user) and personal (dedicated) desktop environments, aligning deployment models with business and technical requirements.
Administer user assignments, application group access, and host pool allocations to ensure an optimal end-user experience.
Monitor and optimize AVD consumption costs through rightsizing, scaling strategies, deallocation schedules, and monthly cost reviews.
Develop automation solutions for provisioning, image management, autoscaling, patching, and decommissioning using PowerShell, Azure CLI, and Infrastructure-as-Code.

Strong expertise in Azure Virtual Desktop architecture, including Host Pools, Workspaces, Application Groups, Session Hosts, and user assignment models.
Strong understanding of Azure infrastructure services, including Resource Groups, VNets, Subnets, NSGs, and network security principles.
Experience optimizing AVD environments for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.

Experience managing the full virtual desktop lifecycle, including provisioning, image management, autoscaling, patching, and decommissioning.

These will help you stand out
