@jacobware
Senior Endpoint Engineer specializing in Microsoft Intune and M365 automation, securing fleet-scale devices with PowerShell + Graph API.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior endpoint engineer with 8+ years administering, automating, and securing Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Intune environments at fleet scale. I own a 400+ Windows and 66 macOS device estate across hybrid Microsoft Entra ID, combining hands-on endpoint engineering with governed security practices.
In my current role, I engineered PowerShell + Microsoft Graph API Proactive Remediations that reduced internal support volume by 40% by detecting-and-correcting configuration drift instead of relying on user-reported tickets. I also architected a Win32 LOB application packaging pipeline for deterministic SYSTEM-context rollouts, built Graph automation for Intune script deployment and Exchange/SharePoint cleanup across rehire scenarios, and standardized triple-logging for reliable remote diagnostics—while mentoring technicians to raise the team’s automation literacy.
