  • Evaluate proposed OS upgrades and provide clear technical recommendations based on business requirements, device readiness, application compatibility, security risk, and vendor-support timelines.
  • Develop and maintain OS upgrade plans covering discovery, readiness assessment, pilot deployment, testing, phased rollout, rollback, validation, and post-deployment support.
  • Make informed technical decisions regarding OS configuration, patching, upgrade readiness, deployment sequencing, exception handling, and issue remediation within architecture, security, and change-management standards.
  • Perform upgrade-readiness assessments, including hardware and driver validation, application testing, encryption, endpoint-security controls, network access, and user-impact analysis.
  • Define and maintain standard endpoint builds, supported OS versions, configuration baselines, compliance policies, and upgrade success criteria.
  • Use endpoint-management and automation tools to deploy OS updates, monitor adoption, identify failures, remediate issues, and report compliance.
  • Create implementation plans, test evidence, change records, rollback procedures, operational documentation, knowledge articles, and stakeholder communications for OS changes.
  • Coordinate OS upgrades with application owners, security, infrastructure, service management, vendors, and business stakeholders.
Security & Access Control
  • Manage BeyondTrust EPM policies for least privilege, elevation requests, and application rules.
  • Operate Airlock Digital allowlisting, including baselining, trusted publishers and paths, exception handling, and policy changes.
  • Work with SecOps on vulnerability remediation, incident response, and audit evidence.
Monitoring & Experience
  • Use ControlUp for real-time monitoring, root-cause analysis, and automated remediation across VDI and physical endpoints.
  • Build dashboards and KPIs for performance, availability, and user experience.
  • Manage Wyse Management Suite (WMS).
Azure & Automation
  • Automate endpoint and workspace operations with PowerShell, Microsoft Graph API, Terraform, Bicep, and related tooling.
Onsite Desktop Support (Location-Based)
  • Provide deskside and walk-up support for laptops, desktops, thin clients, peripherals, docking stations, and meeting-room technology.
  • Perform hands-on device provisioning and Autopilot onboarding, reimaging or reset, hardware swaps, device refresh, and Windows 11 upgrade activities.
  • Handle joiner, mover, and leaver device activities, including asset tagging, handover, collection, and secure disposal.
  • Troubleshoot onsite issues across Windows, macOS, mobile devices, printing, Wi-Fi, VPN/ZTNA, VDI clients, and Microsoft 365 applications.
  • Support VIP and executive users, onsite events, town halls, and office moves.
  • Coordinate with vendors for hardware repairs, warranty claims, and logistics.
  • Maintain accurate asset inventory, spares, and stock levels at each site.
  • Log and manage tickets in ITSM platforms such as ServiceNow or Jira, meet SLAs, and take ownership of complex problems.
Operations & Collaboration
  • Act as the escalation point for the service desk, perform problem management, and write runbooks and knowledge articles.
  • Plan and run changes, testing, and phased rollouts.
  • Mentor junior engineers and desktop support technicians.
  • Contribute design input and technical recommendations to the EUC roadmap.
Required Qualifications
  • 7 years of experience in EUC, endpoint engineering, VDI, or desktop support and engineering.
  • Hands-on production experience with Omnissa Horizon Cloud/DaaS, App Volumes, and DEM.

  • Demonstrated experience assessing OS upgrades, resolving compatibility issues, and governing phased endpoint deployments.
  • Ability to design solutions and write clear technical documentation.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Microsoft MD-102 or AZ-104, Omnissa Horizon or Workspace ONE, and ITIL Foundation certifications.
