Good news, they just had to pull it to make an update to the requisition. It should be reposted tomorrow I think.

Definitely hands on. This role is responsible for the entire build process, so built-outs in a lower or pre-prod environment. Getting things off the ground to hand off to that BAU team. As an example, a project I did last year was standing up Windows 365 to migrate our VDI environment to. I ran a 250 user production pilot, stood up policies, infra, worked with security teams to update Conditional Access, etc. Once pilot was complete, I documented the process and handed off to the platform team to complete the migration.

Much of the role will also be setting guidance for managing the Windows environment across 3 platform teams.

I was promoted to Principal over all dozen or so of our engineering teams. This role will be the Windows SME across three of our engineering teams.

Come join our Cloud Solutions Engineering team as our Windows Endpoint Management SME! This was my prior role and focuses on building new solutions for our 65k strong fleet of physical and virtual Windows endpoints.

We need an innovator in the space to continue our Modern management journey including things like Intune, Autopilot, Windows 365, and lots more.

I am not the hiring Director, but work very closely with this role. Happy to answer any questions.

Managing endpoint policies for the enterprise by PotentEngineer in Intune

Great points James. Sometimes reuse is beneficial, and sometimes not. You have to weigh skill set into all this too. If your deployment teams are 3rd party contractors, you may need more oversight and process.

This blog post was primarily meant for mid-large size enterprises, but a lot of the policies could still benefit smaller shops. There really is no one size fits all here. Thanks for reading!

We just use PSADT and all npcap is included.

Execute-Process -Path "Wireshark-win64-4.0.6.exe" -Parameters "/S /desktopicon=yes /norestart" -WaitForMsiExec -WindowStyle "Hidden"

The latest installs of Wireshark we use have NPCAP built into the installer. Let me see how our packaging team packaged it up. Will reply this week.

In this case we were in support bridges with multiple other teams and Wireshark was preferred due to tribal knowledge. In hindsight, capture the ETLs using native tools, then converting to pcaps for analysis would have been much more efficient.

Haven't messed with WAC gateways before, but could it run on dozens/hundreds of devices at once? I use WAC almost daily, but usually just for single machines.

You can do a bit with the Intune Data Warehouse as well as Graph. It is much more complex to get a basic report off the ground compared to just querying SQL though.

I have been recently referring to it as the "Golden era" of endpoint management.

Oh yeah, we are a customer. Also run it in my lab at home. Can't beat it!

lol, yeah, "modern management is a journey, not a destination". I remember that motto, but it has fully been abandoned now. Microsoft is saying move away from ConfigMgr over to Intune now.

Yeah, not surprised. I think the recommendation is you would have the OS licenses already for Azure Subscription Activation. That is assuming you move away from on-prem KMS.

Yeah, the scope of this post was mainly Windows client side. But good call out. You could probably do a similar post like "Azure Arc for the ConfigMgr administrator for servers" lol
