• Sydney – Hybrid
• Up to $800/day incl. super
• NV1 clearance mandatory

An opportunity for a highly experienced Microsoft Intune SME to take a key technical role within a large, complex enterprise environment.

This isn’t purely a BAU endpoint support position. You’ll be brought in as a subject matter expert, helping shape, improve and mature the organisation’s modern endpoint environment while solving complex technical challenges across Intune and the wider Microsoft ecosystem.

• Entra ID / Azure AD and Microsoft 365 integration
• Endpoint security, conditional access and device compliance
• Troubleshooting complex endpoint and Intune issues
• Technical standards, documentation and continuous improvement

• Active NV1 clearance mandatory

Why consider it?

This is an opportunity to work at an enterprise architecture level while staying connected to delivery. You’ll have visibility across major infrastructure and cloud initiatives, influence important technical decisions and work with experienced engineering and technology teams rather than producing architecture in isolation.

Join a global technology operations team supporting a large-scale, enterprise database environment, where you’ll play a key role in maintaining performance, stability and availability across critical systems in a 24/7, follow-the-sun model.
