  • Partners with adjacent teams to ensure endpoint changes are aligned with compliance, required controls and Security expectations.

4) Tier 3/4 Escalation, Incident Response, and Problem Management

  • Function as a top-level escalation point for complex endpoint incidents impacting Enterprise systems.

  • Lead root cause analysis efforts and implements durable fixes to prevent repeated incidents and reduces support burden.

5) Automation & Operational Excellence

  • Build and support automation to reduce repetitive manual work and improve consistency.

  • Establish and enforce best practices that optimize for scale and improve end-user outcomes.

6) Documentation, Knowledge Transfer, and Enablement

  • Create and support runbooks, operational playbooks, and high-quality documentation.

  • Provide technical enablement to Service Desk and partner teams to reduce escalations and increase first-contact resolution.

7) Cross-Team Collaboration & Stakeholder Partnership

  • Contribute to committing roadmaps and delivery processes in areas including endpoint modernization and least privileged access improvements.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Demonstrated experience leading endpoint administration/engineering work in an enterprise environment.

  • Strong troubleshooting capability across endpoint policy/configuration, deployment workflows, and large-scale endpoint operational issues.

  • Proven ability to document processes, develop operational standards, and improve systems through being initiative-taking instead of reactive.

  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, including the ability to work effectively across IT Ops and Security stakeholders.
