Streamline software packaging and distribution pipelines for global consistency
Work closely with support teams to ensure technical readiness, documentation, and training
Promote high performance, reliability, and security across all EUC platforms
Provide mentoring and hands-on guidance across projects and daily operations
Technically strong with deep hands-on knowledge of Microsoft 365, Intune, Autopilot, Entra ID, and endpoint platforms
Experienced in delivering complex migrations and endpoint transformations in enterprise or multi-entity environments
Strong architecture and design experience across Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, and endpoint platforms—able to define scalable, secure, and standardised modern workplace solutions.
