About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Device Management Engineer to own and evolve our endpoint management ecosystem across a diverse device fleet. You’ll be one of the subject matter experts for device lifecycle, security tooling, and automation — keeping our endpoints healthy, secure, and consistently managed at scale.

- Manage software deployment, patching, and inventory through enterprise deployment and asset management tooling
- Administer endpoint security and application control policies — including allowlisting, ringfencing, and storage controls — and respond to policy exceptions
- Develop and maintain PowerShell scripts to automate device provisioning, compliance remediation, and reporting workflows
- Own the full device lifecycle: enrollment, configuration baseline, patching cadence, and retirement
- Maintain co-management configurations bridging on-premises and cloud-native management; optimize workload assignments as the environment matures
- Build and enforce compliance policies, conditional access baselines, and security configurations aligned with organizational standards
- Troubleshoot complex endpoint issues across hardware, OS, and management tooling layers
- Document runbooks, configurations, and processes; train and mentor junior IT staff
Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in endpoint/device management roles
- Deep expertise with cloud-based platforms and on-premises configuration management (co-management experience strongly preferred)
- Experience managing macOS devices with an enterprise Mac management platform
- Hands-on experience with endpoint security and application control solutions
- Proficiency in PowerShell scripting for automation and endpoint management tasks
- Experience with enterprise software deployment and remote management tooling
- Solid understanding of patch management strategy and ring-based deployment
- Familiarity with cloud identity, Conditional Access, and modern device identity concepts
- Strong troubleshooting skills across Windows 10/11 and macOS environments
Nice to Have
- Relevant Microsoft or platform-specific certifications
- Understanding of zero-trust network access concepts as they relate to endpoints
- Exposure to vulnerability management and endpoint detection platforms
- Experience in manufacturing or enterprise environments with mixed device fleets
