Job Level
About the role
- Year 1: Endpoint & Systems Engineering
- MDM Administration: Lead the configuration and maintenance of our MDM platform (e.g., Microsoft Intune, Jamf, or Kandji).
- Support & Process Engineering: Take ownership of the IT ticketing system, building out automation for common requests and defining the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the support team.
- Zero-Touch Deployment: Design and optimize "Autopilot" or "DEP" workflows so laptops can be shipped directly to users and configured automatically.
- Application Packaging: Create and maintain a library of automated application deployments and updates.
- Hardware Lifecycle: Manage the technical standards for the laptop fleet, including firmware security and hardware performance benchmarking.
- IT Service Delivery: Act as the first point of contact for technical escalations, using "detective work" to solve complex bugs and hardware issues.
- AI for Productivity: Use N8N or Scripting to automate repetitive configuration tasks on remote endpoints.
- ISO27001: Become deeply involved with the process of getting our ISO27001 certification.
- Year 2: Security Engineering
- Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR): Manage and tune our security agents (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, or Defender for Endpoint).
- Vulnerability Management: Use MDM data to identify out-of-date software and hardware vulnerabilities, then automate the remediation.
- Hardening Standards: Implement CIS Benchmarks and "Conditional Access" policies to ensure only healthy devices can access company data.
- Incident Response: Act as the primary technical responder for security alerts originating from the laptop fleet.
Requirements
- MDM Exposure: Basic familiarity with or desire to learn managing devices via a central console (Intune, Jamf, Meraki, etc.).
- Technical Scripting: Exposure to Python or similar languages; you should find it interesting to automate data analysis and routine tasks.
- Systems Curiosity: A deep interest in macOS and Windows 10/11 troubleshooting and a desire to understand how global fleets are managed.
- Networking: Understanding of how laptops connect securely (VPN, DNS, Wi-Fi 6, ZTNA).
- Problem-Solving Mindset: You enjoy the "detective work" of figuring out how to fix a bug or why a deployment failed.
- **The "Will-Learns"**
- - Automation: Proficiency in advanced scripting for system-level changes.
- - Security Frameworks: Understanding of NIST or Essential Eight frameworks.
- - Compliance: Learning how to prove to auditors that our "fleet is secure" via data and reporting.
