The Role:

Your Mission: The Junior Endpoint Engineer is an entry‑level engineering role focused on supporting, maintaining, and improving the organization’s endpoint environment under the guidance of Senior Endpoint Engineers and Enterprise Services leadership. This role is designed for individuals who have a solid technical foundation, a strong desire to learn modern endpoint management practices, and an interest in growing into a more advanced endpoint or systems engineering role over time.

The Junior Endpoint Engineer supports day‑to‑day endpoint operations, assists with device lifecycle activities, and contributes to standardized, Intune‑based endpoint management in a Microsoft 365–centric healthcare environment where reliability, security, and consistency are critical.

What You’ll Do Day-to-Day:

  • Assist with the configuration, testing, and maintenance of endpoint policies, profiles, applications, and security baselines under the guidance of Senior Endpoint Engineers.
  • Perform routine endpoint troubleshooting for Windows devices, including OS issues, application deployment failures, device compliance errors, and hardware‑related problems.
  • Support endpoint patching and update processes, validating successful deployment and escalating exceptions or failures appropriately.
  • Assist with device lifecycle management activities, including inventory validation, asset tracking, device replacements, and secure decommissioning.
  • Partner with Desktop Support and the Service Desk to support escalated endpoint‑related incidents, providing technical context, hands‑on assistance, and clear documentation.
  • Follow ITSM‑aligned processes for incident, request, and change activities, ensuring work is properly documented and supports reporting and audit needs.
  • Contribute to endpoint documentation and knowledge base articles by capturing repeatable tasks, troubleshooting steps, and lessons learned.
  • Participate in testing and validation of new device models, hardware standards, drivers, and endpoint changes prior to broader deployment.
  • Identify recurring endpoint issues or inefficiencies and raise observations to senior engineers to support problem management and continuous improvement efforts.

Who You Are & What You’ll Bring:Education:

  • Associate's degree in information technology  or a related field is preferred; equivalent experience will be considered.

Proven Track Record:

  • 13 years of experience in Desktop Support, Service Desk, or endpoint‑focused IT roles, or equivalent hands‑on technical experience.

Technical Foundation:

  • Foundational technical troubleshooting skills across Windows endpoints, common peripherals, and core productivity applications.
  • Working knowledge of Windows operating systems and device configuration concepts.
  • Exposure to modern endpoint management tools such as Microsoft Intune and Autopilot is strongly preferred.
  • Basic understanding of Microsoft 365 services, Entra ID (Azure AD), and user/device identity concepts.
  • Familiarity with ITSM concepts and ticketing systems (e.g., ServiceNow, Jira Service Management, Zendesk) and the importance of accurate documentation.
  • Ability to follow established standards, procedures, and change controls while developing independent technical judgment.
  • Strong attention to detail and a disciplined approach to documentation and task execution.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non‑technical audiences.
  • Curiosity and a growth mindset, with a demonstrated interest in learning modern endpoint engineering practices.

Physical Readiness:

  • Occasional lifting up to 50 pounds, standing or sitting for extended periods, and repetitive use of hands and fingers.
