Job Description

The IT Infrastructure Specialist is responsible for engineering and supporting modern endpoint management solutions with a focus on Microsoft Intune and macOS platforms. This role enables a secure, compliant, and seamless end-user experience by delivering automated, cloud-managed endpoint capabilities aligned to AbbVie’s modern workplace strategy.

The position plays a key role in advancing Intune-first endpoint management, strengthening macOS platform maturity, and improving endpoint health, compliance, and user experience across the enterprise.

Responsibilities

  • Support the end-to-end lifecycle of endpoints across Windows and macOS, including provisioning (Autopilot / Apple Business Manager), configuration, patching, application delivery, and retirement
  • Maintain Intune-based device management policies, including compliance policies, configuration profiles, update rings, and application deployment
  • Support macOS endpoint management using Intune, ensuring alignment with enterprise standards and roadmap toward unified management
  • Maintain standardized endpoint baselines, including security hardening, encryption, and configuration aligned with Conditional Access and compliance requirements (e.g., GxP where applicable)
  • Support automation-first solutions using scripting (PowerShell, Bash/Zsh) to streamline provisioning, configuration, and issue remediation
  • Troubleshoot identity-driven access controls, including Azure AD, Conditional Access, device compliance, and M365 client configuration
  • Provide escalation support for complex endpoint issues, performing root cause analysis and implementing long-term fixes to reduce repeat incidents
  • Leverage endpoint analytics and monitoring tools (e.g., Nexthink, Intune reporting) to improve device health, performance, and user experience
  • Collaborate with Security, Identity, Network, and Application teams to ensure endpoint solutions meet enterprise security, compliance, and usability standards
  • Maintain clear and concise technical documentation, including runbooks, standards, and knowledge articles; support knowledge transfer to Service Desk and Tier 2 teams
  • Track and improve endpoint KPIs such as device compliance, patch success rates, encryption coverage, software deployment success, and MTTR
  • Contribute to roadmap execution by identifying opportunities to simplify tooling, reduce legacy dependencies, and accelerate Intune adoption

Qualifications

Required:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience
  • 4+ years of experience in endpoint engineering, desktop engineering, or modern device management
  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft Intune for device configuration, compliance, and application deployment
  • Experience supporting macOS endpoints in an enterprise environment, including lifecycle management and troubleshooting
  • Experience with Apple Business Manager (ABM) and macOS provisioning workflows
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across OS, application, identity, and connectivity issues
  • Experience with Azure AD / Entra ID, including Conditional Access and device compliance concepts
  • Scripting/automation experience (PowerShell, Bash, or shell scripting)
  • Familiarity with ITSM processes (incident, problem, change management)
  • Strong communication and documentation skills

Preferred:

  • Experience with Jamf Pro and integration with Microsoft Intune (coexistence or migration scenarios)
  • Experience implementing or supporting Zero Touch provisioning (Windows Autopilot and macOS enrollment)
  • Familiarity with endpoint security controls (encryption, EDR, compliance posture) in Intune-managed environments
  • Experience with Nexthink or endpoint analytics tools for user experience and performance monitoring
  • Experience in regulated environments (e.g., GxP) with audit-ready configurations
  • Experience contributing to Intune migrations, tenant standardization, or legacy tool decommissioning
