End Point Management Engineer

Description

Our client is seeking an Endpoint Management Engineer to design, automate, and operate the enterprise device management platform supporting a global workforce.

This role owns hands‑on engineering and operations across Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Configuration Manager (SCCM/MECM) in a co‑management architecture, with Hybrid Entra ID (Azure AD) joined, Active Directory domain‑bound Windows endpoints and a multi‑platform Intune estate spanning Windows, mac OS, i OS/i Pad OS, and Android — including Android‑based teleconferencing and conference room systems.

Automation is central to this role.

The successful candidate writes production‑quality Power Shell, Bash, and .

NET code, builds Intune remediation and detection scripts, and uses the Microsoft Graph API to manage the estate programmatically rather than solely through the console.

Fluency with modern AI‑assisted engineering tools is expected — including Claude or Co Pilot — to accelerate script development, log analysis, documentation, and reporting.

Equally important is the discipline required in a regulated environment.

You will advance modern management objectives — Zero Trust, Conditional Access, cloud‑first policy delivery, and progressive workload migration from Configuration Manager to Intune — while respecting the reliability requirements of standard corporate devices and the constraints of non‑standard, purpose‑built systems, manufacturing workstations, kiosks, and validated Gx P endpoints.

The role partners closely with Information Security, Identity, Networking, Infrastructure, Site IT, and Site Service Support teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Automation, Scripting, and Development
• Design, write, and maintain production‑quality Power Shell for endpoint provisioning, configuration enforcement, bulk administration, reporting, and incident remediation across the Windows estate.
• Write and maintain shell/Bash scripts for mac OS configuration, compliance validation, and application delivery through Intune mac OS shell scripting.
• Build and manage Intune Remediations (proactive remediations) — paired detection and remediation script logic — to identify and self‑heal configuration drift, failed agents, certificate issues, and compliance gaps without user impact.
• Automate platform operations against the Microsoft Graph API, including device and policy inventory, assignment management, application lifecycle tasks, reporting extracts, and integration with adjacent systems.
• Apply engineering discipline to automation assets: source control, code review, parameterization, error handling, logging, idempotency, and controlled release through test rings.
• Convert recurring manual and Service Desk activities into automated or self‑service capabilities.
• Core Device Management
• Engineer and maintain Intune compliance policies across all platforms, including device health, OS version floors, and custom compliance scripts.
• Build and maintain configuration profiles and settings catalog policies, administrative templates, and custom OMA-URI/configuration profiles for Windows, mac OS, i OS/i Pad OS, and Android.
• Familiar with Windows Update for Business and update rings, feature and quality update deployments, driver and firmware update governance, mac OS and i OS update policies.
• Manage monthly and out‑of‑band patch operations in Configuration Manager through Software Update Groups, automatic deployment rules, and maintenance windows; drive patch compliance to defined service‑level targets and remediate delinquent endpoints.
• Package, test, and deploy applications across platforms — Win32 (. intunewin), MSI/MSIX, Microsoft Store, Microsoft 365 Apps, mac OS PKG/DMG and shell‑script apps, i OS/Android managed apps via volume purchasing — with correct detection rules, dependencies, supersedence, requirement rules, and assignment logic.
• Implement and maintain security baselines and industry benchmarks — Microsoft security baselines for Windows, Edge, and Defender; CIS Benchmarks; DISA STIG‑derived controls — including deviation tracking, exception documentation, and drift detection.
• Administer the Configuration Manager hierarchy: site systems, distribution points, boundary groups, client health, content distribution, task sequences, OS deployment, and hardware/software inventory accuracy.
• Manage non‑standard Windows endpoints — manufacturing and shop‑floor workstations, kiosks, shared and standalone systems — with tailored collections, restricted patch windows, exception handling, and documented deviations.
• Identity, Conditional Access, and Endpoint Security
• Manage device identity across Entra ID and on‑premises Active Directory, including Hybrid Entra ID join, Entra ID join, AD domain‑bound systems, and resolution of stale, duplicate, or mis‑registered device objects.
• Configure and maintain co‑management settings, pilot collections, and the controlled transition of individual workloads (compliance policies, Windows Update, device configuration, client apps, Office Apps) from Configuration Manager to Intune.
• Support Conditional Access in partnership with Identity and
• Information

Security: device‑based and compliance‑based grant controls, filters for devices, app protection policy requirements, and safe rollout using report‑only mode and exclusion groups.

• Understand and support mac OS Platform SSO with Entra ID — Secure Enclave authentication, local account creation and password sync, registration during Automated Device Enrollment — and the Microsoft Enterprise SSO plug‑in for mac OS and i OS/i Pad OS.
• Familiar with Zscaler Client Connector or comparable Zero Trust network access and secure web gateway agents across Windows and mac OS.
• Familiar with endpoint security controls, including Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Bit Locker and File Vault encryption with key escrow, application control, firewall policy, and Windows LAPS.
• Deploy and maintain certificate profiles (SCEP/PKCS) and Wi‑Fi (including 802.1X) across all supported platforms.
• Endpoint Analytics, KPIs, and Reporting
• Define, publish, and maintain endpoint management KPIs — patch compliance rate and time‑to‑patch, policy and compliance conformance, application deployment success rate, agent and client health.
• Build operational and executive dashboards using Intune reporting, Configuration Manager reporting and SQL, Log Analytics, Microsoft Graph data extracts, and Power BI.
• Use AI‑assisted engineering tools — Claude Code, Cowork, Git Hub Copilot, Microsoft Copilot, and comparable agentic tooling — to accelerate script and policy development, log and error triage, documentation authoring, data analysis, and report generation.
• Compliance, Quality, and Operational Support
• Execute all platform and policy changes through the enterprise change management process, with documented impact assessment, test evidence, approvals, and rollback plans.
• Support Gx P‑regulated endpoints by respecting validated system boundaries, coordinating with appropriate groups on change impact, and maintaining documentation sufficient to withstand internal audit and regulatory inspection.
• Serve as escalation point for complex endpoint incidents from Endpoint Engineering Operations team and regional IT teams; perform root cause analysis and implement permanent corrective actions.
• Maintain accurate technical documentation, standard operating procedures, work instructions, and knowledge base articles.
• Participate in an on‑call or extended‑coverage rotation for critical endpoint incidents and scheduled maintenance activities.
• Additional Skills & Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field; equivalent professional experience with relevant certifications will be considered.
• Minimum of 3 years of hands‑on experience administering Microsoft Configuration Manager (SCCM/MECM) in an enterprise environment, including application packaging, OS deployment, and software update management.
• Minimum of 3 years of hands‑on experience administering Microsoft Intune, including compliance policies, configuration profiles, security baselines, and application deployment.
• Demonstrated proficiency writing and maintaining Power Shell for endpoint automation, remediation, and reporting — beyond running scripts written by others.
• Practical experience with the Microsoft Graph API for endpoint management automation or reporting.
• Working knowledge of Intune and Configuration Manager co‑management, workload transition, Hybrid Entra ID join, and Active Directory domain‑bound Windows endpoints.
• Hands‑on experience managing at least two non‑Windows platforms in Intune (mac OS, i OS/i Pad OS, or Android), including scripting or shell‑based configuration on mac OS.
• Working knowledge of Entra ID, Conditional Access, Group Policy, Active Directory, DNS/DHCP, PKI and certificate services, and Windows client architecture.
• Experience deploying and troubleshooting endpoint security and network access agents (for example, Zscaler Client Connector, Crowd Strike).
• Experience using endpoint reporting and analytics to measure and improve device health, compliance, or user experience (for example Intune report dashboards, Nexthink).
• Working familiarity with AI‑assisted development and productivity tools, and sound judgment about their appropriate use with enterprise data.
• Experience operating within formal change management, incident management, and documentation standards.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills spanning identity, network, policy, and ap
