• Persona‑Based Workspace Delivery: Develop and maintain persona‑driven workspace models that align technology configurations, desktop experiences, application access, performance profiles, and security controls to the needs of different business and technical user groups.
• Automation & Platform Efficiency: Create and maintain automation using PowerShell, infrastructure-as-code, APIs, and workflow tools to streamline provisioning, image lifecycle management, application delivery, policy configuration, monitoring, reporting, and operational support.
• Application, Profile & User Experience Optimization: Engineer solutions for application integration, profile management, FSLogix, identity-based access, endpoint configuration, Windows performance tuning, logon optimization, application compatibility, and user experience consistency across AVD, Windows 365, AVS-hosted workloads, enterprise Windows endpoints, and related workspace platforms.
• Governance, Security & Operational Excellence: Establish engineering standards, documentation, monitoring practices, security baselines, compliance controls, and operational processes that ensure digital workspace platforms are resilient, supportable, cost-aware, and aligned with enterprise architecture standards.

What You'll Bring:

• 7+ years of experience in senior Windows engineering, enterprise endpoint engineering, virtualization, EUC, VDI, or digital workspace engineering roles.
• Deep hands-on expertise with Windows 11 engineering, including image creation and maintenance, Windows Autopilot, Intune, Group Policy, security baselines, patching, driver management, application compatibility, troubleshooting, and endpoint lifecycle management.
