Job description

Department: Information Security
Reports to: Senior Director, Information Security
Role Summary
You will be a hands-on engineer responsible for securing and managing endpoints across a modern, hybrid enterprise. You’ll design and enforce endpoint security baselines, automate compliance, and leverage Microsoft Intune to maintain strong, measurable protection.
Success in this role means maintaining a resilient endpoint ecosystem—devices that are secure by default, compliant by design, and enable users to work anywhere without compromise.
What You’ll Do (Core Responsibilities)Architect and Manage Endpoint Security at Scale
  • Lead the design, implementation, and tuning of Microsoft Intune (Endpoint Manager) for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android endpoints.
  • Create paved road device baselines with pre-configured encryption, firewall, endpoint detection, patching, and configuration standards.
  • Administer and integrate Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) for advanced threat protection, behavioral detection, and automated remediation.
  • Ensure policy consistency across cloud-managed and hybrid-joined devices (Intune, Group Policy, Azure AD).
Security Hardening, Compliance, and Monitoring
  • Define and enforce endpoint security configurations in line with enterprise standards/policies.
  • Implement Conditional Access policies and device compliance posture checks in Microsoft Entra (Azure AD).
  • Collaborate with Cloud, IAM, and GRC teams to align device security controls to frameworks such as CIS Benchmarks, NIST CSF, and Zero Trust.
  • Integrate endpoint telemetry into SIEM/SOAR systems for threat correlation and automated response.
Automation and Tool Integration
  • Develop automation workflows using PowerShell, Graph API, or Azure Automation to streamline policy deployment, patching, and reporting.
  • Integrate Intune and MDE with broader security orchestration and compliance tools (e.g., Wiz, ServiceNow, Sentinel).
  • Implement policy-as-code concepts for device configurations and compliance validation.
  • Work with IT Operations to continuously improve speed, reliability, and security of patch management cycles.
Collaboration and Enablement
  • Partner with Desktop Engineering, IT, and Cloud Security teams to ensure cohesive endpoint and identity integration.
  • Provide guidance and documentation for secure endpoint configuration and troubleshooting.
  • Develop and deliver training or quick-start guides for IT support staff on endpoint compliance and security posture management.
Minimum Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in Endpoint Security Engineering, IT Security, or related infrastructure roles.
  • Hands-on expertise with Microsoft Intune / Endpoint Manager, Defender for Endpoint (MDE), and Azure AD Conditional Access.
  • Strong knowledge of Windows 10/11 and macOS management and hardening best practices.
  • Experience with PowerShell scripting, Microsoft Graph API, or similar automation frameworks.
  • Familiarity with MDM and MAM policies, compliance baselines, and zero-touch deployment processes.
  • Understanding of Zero Trust, least privilege, and device compliance principles.
  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills across OS, network, and endpoint layers.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience integrating endpoint telemetry with SIEM/SOAR systems (e.g., Sentinel, Splunk).
  • Familiarity with Defender for Identity, Defender for Cloud Apps, or other Microsoft 365 Defender suite components.
  • Exposure to vulnerability management and patch automation tools (e.g., TVM, Tanium, or Qualys).
  • Relevant certifications such as Microsoft Certified: Endpoint Administrator Associate, MD-102, SC-200, or CompTIA Security+.
Behavioral Competencies
  • Enablement mindset: You design controls that protect users without impeding productivity.
  • Automation first: You codify baselines and compliance checks to scale effortlessly.
  • Curious and analytical: You dig into telemetry and data to reveal root causes and systemic fixes.
  • Collaborative: You partner across Security, IT, and Operations to drive unified endpoint resilience.
  • Communicative: You translate device risk into actionable, business-relevant outcomes.
