  • Help ensure all endpoints are properly inventoried and compliant with patching policies
  • Assist with compliance tracking, reporting, and audit support activities
  • Perform routine validation checks to ensure adherence to security standards

Incident Support & Troubleshooting
  • Provide support for patch-related incidents and endpoint issues
  • Troubleshoot failed deployments, update issues, and client health problems
  • Participate in after-hours support for patching windows or critical issues as needed

Collaboration & Governance
  • Work within established change management processes
  • Collaborate with team members, security, and infrastructure teams on patching activities
  • Contribute to documentation of processes, procedures, and system configurations
  • Share knowledge and best practices within the team

What You Need
