Overview
You are the Foundation lead responsible for defining tenant-to-tenant migration standards for SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business and Teams-associated file content. You will translate information architecture realities (permissions, metadata, sharing, content structures) into repeatable runbooks and quality gates that enable high-volume, low-disruption migrations. You will govern tool configuration standards (native and/or third-party) and establish validation and remediation patterns so Scale squads and the Factory can execute predictably.
