About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Lead the FleetDM migration by defining scope, requirements, architecture, dependencies, and a phased delivery plan with OS specialists and partner teams.
Engineer and operate the shared platform, maintaining configuration, agent workflows, policies, queries, integrations, and operational automation.
Build version-controlled configuration with automated checks, peer review, controlled rollout, drift detection, and recovery.
Validate platform capabilities and coexistence, identify gaps, clarify management authority, and determine which responsibilities migrate or remain with existing tools.
Establish trustworthy device populations, data freshness, enrollment and agent health, and owned remediation workflows.
Protect service continuity through representative pilots, acceptance gates, employee-impact checks, and clear pause and recovery decisions.
Create reusable patterns and documentation, and provide shared support coverage through pairing, mentoring, and operational handoffs.
Reduce recurring manual work and recommend tooling consolidation where evidence supports it.
Partner with Windows, macOS, Linux, Security, IAM, CorpInfra, and support teams to resolve dependencies and make practical trade-offs.
Provide technical leadership and mentoring as an individual contributor.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Significant hands-on experience engineering enterprise endpoint platforms, including deep expertise in at least one of Windows, macOS, or Linux and experience working across OS boundaries.
Personal ownership of a multi-phase platform migration or comparable change, including discovery, pilots, rollout, recovery, and operational handover.
Strong practical programming or scripting skills, such as Python, Go, PowerShell, or shell, with production automation and API integration experience.
Demonstrated use of Git, code review, automated checks, and controlled deployment for configuration or infrastructure changes.
Ability to diagnose enrollment, agent, policy, identity, networking, and integration failures and distinguish missing data from healthy devices.
Experience establishing monitoring, failure handling, least-privilege access, secrets management, and maintainable operational workflows.
Ability to independently define priorities, align cross-functional stakeholders, communicate trade-offs, and mentor engineers.
Clear written and verbal communication and effective asynchronous collaboration across regions.
Preferred: production experience with FleetDM configuration, policies, queries, APIs, agent operations, or deployment automation.
Preferred: practical osquery and SQL experience, including query validation, performance considerations, targeting, and stale or missing results.
Preferred: migration or coexistence experience involving Intune, Jamf, or comparable endpoint-management platforms.
Preferred: experience integrating endpoint platforms with identity, security, inventory, or ITSM services.
Preferred: experience supporting developer-heavy, distributed environments.
Preferred: demonstrated improvements in platform operating effort, tool consolidation, or lifecycle cost.
