Senior Desktop Engineer (46155) - Chicago, IL (Temp to Perm)

Posted May 29, 2026

Job Description

LRS Consulting Services is seeking a Senior Desktop Engineer to join a collaborative, tight‑knit IT operations team supporting a mid‑sized, globally distributed organization. This role is responsible for managing and administering the PC ecosystem, including endpoint deployment, application packaging, policy management, and end‑user support across office and remote environments.

The team operates with a flat structure and minimal siloing, giving exposure to technologies beyond desktop engineering such as identity management, networking, and security platforms. Cultural fit is critical; the team values collaboration, initiative, and mutual support.

This is a hybrid position based out of Northbrook, IL (3 days in office, 2 days remote). The Northbrook office is currently under construction, so the role may start fully remote and transition to the headquarters when it is ready.

What You Will Do

• Manage and administer the Microsoft 365 and Intune environment, including policy configuration, device compliance, and Autopilot deployment.
• Build, maintain, and deploy application packages through Intune, both push‑based delivery and self‑service via the Company Portal.
• Administer Active Directory, Entra ID, and related identity services.
• Manage and support the ConnectWise platform for endpoint management, remote control, and privileged access management.
• Maintain PC inventory and asset tracking for accurate records across the environment.
• Provide escalated desktop support for hardware and software issues throughout the organization.
• Collaborate with senior engineers on infrastructure projects spanning virtualization, networking, and security.
• Participate in the transition from a SharePoint‑based ticketing system to an improved platform.
• Support the organization’s global footprint with occasional travel for project work (not required, but available).

Required Qualifications

• Proficiency with Microsoft Intune, including device management, policy deployment, application packaging, and Autopilot.
• Strong Microsoft 365 administration experience across the full suite (Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint, Entra ID).
• Solid Active Directory and Entra ID administration skills, including account management, group policy, and identity services.
• Hands‑on experience with PC lifecycle management, including imaging, hardware troubleshooting, and software deployment.
• Strong end‑user support skills with the ability to triage and resolve issues independently.
• Permanent authorization to work in the U.S.; sponsorship not available.
• Third‑party candidates will not be considered; all candidates must be willing to work on a W2.

Preferred Qualifications

• PowerShell scripting and automation capabilities.
• Experience with ConnectWise or similar endpoint management and remote support platforms.
• Familiarity with Okta or other identity and access management platforms.
• Exposure to CrowdStrike or similar endpoint security tools.
• Experience with Meraki networking, Palo Alto firewalls, or similar infrastructure technologies.
• Experience managing Chromebooks via Google Workspace or iOS devices via Apple Business Manager.
• Prior experience in a mid‑sized, non‑siloed IT environment where team members wear multiple hats.

Work Environment and Schedule

Hybrid position based out of Northbrook, IL (3 days onsite, 2 days remote). Flexible start times accommodate personal schedules. Minimal after‑hours expectations; availability only for rare emergency situations. Optional travel to domestic and international sites for project work.

Base Pay Range

$45.00 – $65.00 per hour, depending on experience. The range reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hires of this position across all U.S. locations. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job‑related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
