• Define the architecture for secure, governed distribution of developer tooling through Package Manager, Autodeck and Developer Software Distribution processes.
• Ensure designs support application allow-listing, least privilege, approved elevation, trusted repositories, software provenance, auditability and policy compliance.
• Lead technical option assessments and proof-of-concept designs, documenting trade-offs across functionality, security, performance, operability, cost and implementation risk.
• Produce and maintain architecture artefacts, including solution overviews, HLDs, LLD guidance, integration diagrams, data flows, decision records, control mappings and transition designs.
• Present designs to architecture and security governance forums, address review findings and secure the required approvals.
• Provide technical direction to desktop engineers, software developers, business analysts and delivery partners throughout build, test, pilot and production implementation.
• Identify architectural dependencies, constraints, risks and technical debt, and recommend proportionate remediation actions.
• Design support, monitoring, ownership, recovery and knowledge-transfer requirements to enable a controlled transition into BAU.

• Strong architecture knowledge across Windows 11, macOS, Microsoft Intune, Autopilot, Microsoft Defender and endpoint privilege management.
• Experience designing software packaging, application distribution, trusted repository or package-management solutions across Windows and macOS.
• Understanding of developer workflows, SDLC tooling, source control, CI/CD, IDEs, build systems, containers and command-line development environments.
• Strong knowledge of identity and access management, least privilege, application control, certificate management, proxies and endpoint security architecture.
• Experience producing HLDs, integration designs, security designs, architecture decisions and non-functional requirements.
