  • Evaluates, pilots, and recommends tooling to close gaps in the current platform
  • Automates operational work using PowerShell, Microsoft Graph, and bash/zsh
  • Builds patch compliance and device health dashboards for IT leadership
  • Submits and drives change requests for all production work, represents those changes at change advisory board review, and communicates maintenance windows, impact, and rollback plans
  • Assists application owners and other IT teams with packaging, deployment, and patching
  • Supports the service desk on escalated endpoint issues, patch-related breakage, and rollbacks
  • Participates in scheduled after-hours maintenance and supports high-severity incidents after-hours
  • Ensures all technology and departmental activities comply with company, security, regulatory and regional requirements
  • Stays current with industry trends, technological advancements, and leverages these capabilities to improve and streamline the operation

Qualifications:
