You Have:

10+ years of experience in endpoint engineering, systems architecture, or infrastructure engineering.

Proven experience securing and managing global fleets of 5,000+ devices.

Deep expertise with endpoint management platforms such as Jamf Pro, Workspace ONE, Google Endpoint Management, Fleet, or Microsoft Intune.
