- Own tenant configuration, console administration, RBAC, SSO/PIV coordination, endpoint grouping, tagging, pre-production/lab validation, and change-control inputs.
- Oversee agent strategy and coordinate with the Endpoint Deployment Engineer on packaging, rollout monitoring, failed-install triage, and endpoint communication health.
- Coordinate with the Patch Migration SME on patch architecture, content distribution, maintenance-window design, BigFix-to-NinjaOne coexistence, and cutover readiness.
- Support daily health checks, Daily Morning Report inputs, Weekly Tracker updates, outage triage, DR inputs, optimization recommendations, and OEM escalation.
SKILLS THAT DRIVE SUCCESS

- Hands-on experience with NinjaOne or comparable endpoint platforms such as BigFix, Tanium, MECM/SCCM, Intune, or Jamf.
- Experience leading large-scale endpoint implementations or migrations; 50,000+ endpoint experience preferred.
- Strong Windows Server/Desktop, Linux, macOS, scripting, certificates, proxies, firewalls, SaaS connectivity, and remote troubleshooting background.
- Ability to operate in ServiceNow/change-control environments and provide clear technical direction to federal stakeholders.

WHAT SETS YOU APART
- Active VA Public Trust / VA PIV and prior VA, federal civilian, healthcare, or regulated-enterprise experience.
- NinjaOne certification, NinjaOne implementation experience, or prior OEM/partner delivery experience.
- Experience replacing or coexisting with HCL BigFix, Tanium, MECM/SCCM, or similar endpoint management platforms.
- Familiarity with FedRAMP SaaS, FISMA, CDM, STIG/CIS reporting, and federal audit environments.
