About this role

Overview

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

Job Type: Full Time / Contract

Work Authorization: No Sponsorship

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

Windows Client Engineer to 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

- 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
