  • Networking knowledge (DNS, DHCP, IP addressing/subnetting, VLANs, boundary/content distribution) to resolve connectivity issues affecting client communication, application delivery, and patch distribution.
  • Leverage AI-assisted tools (Claude, Copilot and other scripting assistants) and automation/orchestration to streamline packaging, remediation, and reporting - tracking work in JIRA and version-controlling scripts/configs in GitHub.
  • Partner and collaborate with multiple technical teams (Architecture, Networking, Information Security, Support, etc.) to develop and support endpoint solutions.
  • Triage and resolve escalations from Endpoint Support and Security, acting as a technical escalation point for Level 1/2 teams.
