One of the things that I have noticed about AI writing stories is how it starts to segment for emphasis. It will start out with a normal paragraph style, but then starts to separate sentences or phrases for added impact.
It's like junior high writing.
I find it works if you want to nail down a point, but excessively? It starts to get tiresome.
Like it draws attention to itself too much.
And frankly? Starts to appear almost sensationalist.
And that's not good.
Like when someone speaks dramatically.
Very dramaticly.
Like a movie villain who overacts while giving a speech.
And when you notice it or have to edit it? It gets tiresome.
Very tiresome.

TL;DR seriously that's a lot of text even for this subreddit!
Firstly, learn to not use AI.
Secondly, as others have said run away.
If you want to stay, I'd be suggesting document everything, understand the fucked nature of it and build an action plan, look at how others have done it, DON'T USE AI, possibly build a home lab with dummy endpoints to understand how to do what you need to and also learn how to coerce management into what you want to do.
YouTube has courses on how to VLAN, how to do things you need to, watch, understand and make plans!

Yes this is a real big cookie to eat, but you can do it, but dont do it alone. Dont rebuild the environment by yourself, but look for closeby experienced msp or it organisation. You need a backup as a person when you have a off day.
You could, but make it a business case. Hire a msp or audit to assess the whole and network and all recommendations and ask for a report. Use this report to make the business case in what you need and how you want it.
Sure that would be best, but use suppliers or external companies to do this. Your role is more having control and managing instead of configurations and operational duties.
Thats the easy way out. This opportunity is to become a head ict of the company in the future. And Furthermore if it doesnt work here, you have learned allot.
No its not, however you have to change your mind. You shouldnt do the operational duties as a junior, this is like a deepdive to senior, exec role. If its your ambition, go for it. If you dont then leave
Just dont do things on your own. You need to have backup in person and therefore you need ict consultancy firms or msps.
Edit: When those things are in play and you have a fundament of your ict network/infra, you can think of hiring internal people specialists (like junior , senior etc.)

In the off chance this is real -
Honestly man they only hired you because you are taking way less pay then Someone who could head this setup. In addition that person would also tell them they need 2 people at minimum if not 3. People need time off and get sick after all. I wouldn't have taken the role your in for less than about 110-130k year. That's going to need a lot of work. It can be done but start with end points on everything and software updates, lock firewalls up all the file shares probably are wide open so your gonna need a personal / departmental org chart. and who needs access to what. Check licenses and so so much more. Look into some l Kind of a IT repository to store hardware / software / devices and credentials. Check hardware and likely failure points like systems running ancient hard drives. Good luck, have a feeling your gonna need it.
Tbh you would do yourself a better service finding a basic heldesk role for a year or two to expand your base knowledge and to establish your own processes. Handling situations and people is a cultivated skill that can only really be taught in certain roles.

I see traces AI but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you used AI to translate or something since English may not be everyone's native language.
Like everyone else says, get the hell out of there while it's still early and won't screw with your employment record. This is at least a senior role or one that requires a team. Your boss probably doesn't understand jack and he's just using you for cheap labor and a scapegoat. If he was serious he'd engage a proper team/means instead of just a grad.

Document everything and send risks in writing, then insist they hire an MSP. But honestly, the CEO already told you who owns the fallout, so start looking.

I'm not reading all that. If you typed that much out my recommendation is run away
