We are a company of everyone and for everyone.
With a solid and inclusive foundation, MC keeps people at the heart of everything we do — making life simpler for customers, employees, and members of the communities we serve.
We create value through everyone’s contribution, innovate at every step, and lead closely, attentive to the qualities and needs of each individual.
We may have different stories and different ideas, but we share the same desire to grow and to become the best version of ourselves. Everything we are, we achieve together — and there’s nothing more inspiring than that.

MC Digital is MC’s Information Technology area.
We firmly believe that technology can revolutionize the retail sector, bringing greater convenience and exceeding customer expectations. We offer a unique work environment that combines the benefits of a large company with the informal and energetic atmosphere of a start-up.

So, if you want to be part of this team and take on new challenges, we’re looking for you!

We are looking for a System Engineer to join our Workplace & Devices team — because we believe we are #betterwithyou!

The ideal candidate will ensure the reliability, security, and performance of email systems, working closely with cross-functional teams and supporting users across the company.
If you are passionate about technology, love solving complex problems, and enjoy working with the latest Microsoft solutions, then this opportunity could be for you.

 

In your day-to-day, you will:

  • Manage and maintain Microsoft Exchange environments (on-premises and/or hybrid) and Microsoft 365, ensuring top stability and performance.
  • Monitor the performance, availability, and security of email services, anticipating issues before they impact users.
  • Define and enforce email policies, retention rules, and compliance settings, ensuring adherence to internal and external standards and regulations.
  • Diagnose and resolve incidents related to email flow, user access, or system errors.
  • Manage email security through Exchange Online Protection (EOP), spam filtering, and threat management.
  • Support onboarding and offboarding processes — creating and configuring mailboxes, managing licenses, and controlling access.
  • Integrate email systems with other applications, working alongside IT teams.
  • Ensure data protection and disaster recovery strategies, minimizing risks and downtime.
  • Document procedures and changes to build a strong internal knowledge base.
  • Stay up to date with new features, best practices, and trends in Microsoft 365 and Exchange.

 

Bring with you:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or similar areas.
  • Proven experience managing Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft 365, and Promodag.
  • Solid knowledge of Entra ID, Active Directory, DNS, SMTP, and PowerShell scripting.
  • Experience with email security and compliance, including DLP, AIP, Microsoft Defender for Office 365, and Purview.
  • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
  • Resilient, assertive, and proactive profile.
  • Microsoft certifications (MS-102, MS-203) are a plus.
  • Fluency in Portuguese and English (spoken and written).

 

What you’ll find here:

  • A collaborative work environment;
  • A dynamic team;
  • Career progression and internal mobility opportunities;
  • A strong, well-established company in the retail sector.

 

What we offer you:

  • Meal allowance via Dá Card;
  • Telecommunications plan with voice, data, and device (for permanent employees);
  • Flex it Up Program – extra days off, unpaid leave, and flexible work models (when applicable);
  • Health and life insurance (for permanent employees) with the option to extend health insurance to family members under favorable conditions;
  • Flexible Benefits Program (when applicable);
  • Onboarding and initial training plan, continuous learning platform, and Financial Literacy Program;
  • School Awards and Merit Scholarships for employees’ children (regular and inclusive education), plus Holiday Programs during school breaks;
  • Newborn Kit for soon-to-be parents;
  • Internal Mobility Programs to foster talent development;
  • Flu vaccine, including administration (voluntary participation);
  • Somos Sonae program — psychosocial, financial, and legal support for employees;
  • Ergocoaching sessions;
  • Mental Health Promotion Programs and Nutrition Consultations;
  • Discounts and partnerships with over 300 top brands;
  • Complimentary coffee and fruit at the workplace;
  • Competitive salary.
