Windows Engineer (Client/Endpoint) - Local Applicants Only

APPLICANTS MUST BE LOCAL TO PITTSBURGH, PA

No 3rd Parties/Sub Vendos

Location: Hybrid in Pittsburgh., PA (3 days onsite, 2 days remote)

Job Type: 1 year Contract

Work Authorization: U.S. Citizen or Green Card Holders Only

Overview:

The A.C.Coy company has an immediate opening for a Microsoft Windows Client Engineer. Ideal candidates must have 3- 5 years of experience engineering and administering Microsoft Windows endpoints in an enterprise environment. Hands-on experience with Microsoft Intune and SCCM/Configuration Manager including application packaging and deployment is also required.

Responsibilities:

The Windows Client Engineer will manage and modernize the Windows endpoint estate through Microsoft Intune and SCCM (Configuration Manager), with a primary focus on driving down vulnerability risk. This is a hands-on engineering role: partner closely with the security team to review findings from Tenable, translate them into deployable fixes, and build the packages, scripts, and configuration baselines that remediate them at scale.

Review outstanding vulnerabilities identified by Tenable Nessus / Tenable Security Center and own the endpoint-side remediation workflow from finding to closure

Build, test, and deploy remediation packages and solutions using Intune and SCCM — application updates, patches, registry and configuration changes, and scripted fixes

Author and maintain remediation scripts (PowerShell), including detection and remediation logic for Intune proactive remediations and SCCM configuration items

Package and deploy third-party application updates that fall outside standard Microsoft patching (e.g., via Win32 apps in Intune, application deployments in SCCM, or a patching tool like PatchMyPC)

Manage Windows Update policy through Windows Update for Business / WSUS / SCCM software update groups, and ensure patch compliance reporting is accurate

Partner with the security/vulnerability management team to triage findings, validate that deployed fixes actually clear the vulnerability, and provide feedback on false positives

Track remediation progress and report on compliance, patch coverage, and outstanding risk against SLAs

Maintain configuration baselines and security hardening (e.g., CIS/DISA STIG alignment) across the Windows client fleet

Support co-management, device onboarding, compliance policies, and conditional access as part of the broader Intune/SCCM environment

Document remediation procedures and contribute to a repeatable, well-tested deployment process to avoid breaking production

Education:

Bachelor's degree - Required

Certifications:

Microsoft MD - 102, SC - 200, or CompTIA Security+ - Preferred

Responsibilities:

Experience engineering and administering Windows endpoints in an enterprise environment - 3-5 years

Hands-on experience with both Microsoft Intune and SCCM/Configuration Manager, including application packaging and deployment

Strong PowerShell scripting skills for automation, detection, and remediation

Experience with Windows patch management (Windows Update for Business, WSUS, or SCCM software updates)

Familiarity with vulnerability management concepts and tooling — Tenable experience strongly preferred; comparable tools (Qualys, Rapid7) also relevant

Understanding of CVEs, CVSS scoring, and how vulnerability findings map to real remediation actions

Solid grasp of Windows OS internals, Active Directory, Group Policy, and Entra ID (Azure AD)

Ability to test changes carefully and roll out fixes without disrupting end users

Experience with application packaging tools (PSADT, PatchMyPC) and MSI/MSIX - Preferred

Exposure to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and its vulnerability management (TVM) integration - Preferred

Knowledge of security hardening frameworks (CIS Benchmarks, DISA STIGs) - Preferred
