  • Partner with stakeholders to enhance endpoint performance while maintaining high security and compliance standards.
  • Proactively implement solutions to improve the reliability, consistency, and overall user experience of the Windows platform.
  • 3. PKI / CMaaS Implementation and Management

  • Design, deploy, and manage large-scale public key infrastructure (PKI) operations, including ADCS, ACM Private CA, GCP CAS, Venafi, Vault PKI, and ACME.
  • Automate certificate issuance / renewal workflows and develop robust strategies to prevent certificate expiry issues.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to improve security and reliability through advanced cryptographic services and certificate governance.
  • 4. Automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

  • Develop enterprise-grade automation solutions using PowerShell, Desired State Configuration (DSC), Terraform, and Packer.
  • Leverage CI / CD pipelines and automated testing to enhance efficiency and deliver repeatable, reliable solutions.
  • Champion Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices to manage and version-control system configurations seamlessly.
  • 5. Advanced Troubleshooting and Problem Solving

  • Provide expert-level troubleshooting of enterprise Windows environments using tools such as Sysinternals, WPR / WPA, WinDbg, ETW / WEF, PerfMon, Wireshark, and Windows event logs.
  • Drive root cause analysis (RCA) and deliver preventative engineering measures to preempt future disruptions.
  • Empower teams with clear documentation and knowledge-sharing to enhance collective problem-solving capabilities.
  • Qualifications

    Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience designing, building, and operating enterprise Windows platforms, including both server and endpoint environments at scale.
  • Proven success owning and managing Active Directory (AD), DNS / DHCP, and NPS environments with a minimum of 10,000 endpoints or equivalent.
  • Substantial experience leading large-scale SCCM / MECM initiatives, including OSD, Task Sequences, application packaging, SUP / WSUS patching, compliance management, and reporting at fleet scale.
  • Proven ability to deliver endpoint computing results, such as high patch compliance, stable driver / firmware lifecycle management, and enhanced user experiences with EAP-TLS, Wi-Fi, or VPN services.
  • Expertise in PKI / CMaaS, including practical experience with ADCS, ACM Private CA, GCP CAS, Venafi, Vault PKI, and ACME.
  • Advanced scripting and automation skills using PowerShell, DSC, Terraform, Packer, and experience implementing DevOps best practices (CI / CD pipelines and automated testing).
  • Demonstrated troubleshooting expertise in large-scale enterprise platforms using advanced tools such as Sysinternals, PerfMon, WinDbg, ETW / WEF, and Wireshark.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Knowledge of modern IT frameworks such as ITIL or experience working in ITSM environments.
  • Experience implementing and supporting secure, scalable endpoint ecosystems in highly regulated industries.
  • Relevant certifications (e.g., Microsoft Certified : Endpoint Administrator, SCCM Certifications, or PKI-related certifications).
