Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end patching and deployment lifecycle across enterprise endpoints (Windows physical, virtual, and VDI).

• Execute and improve release and deployment processes aligned with ITIL (Incident, Change, Release, Problem management).

• Manage and optimize deployments using:

o Tanium

o Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM/SCCM)

o VMware App Volumes for application delivery

• Perform patch compliance monitoring, reporting, and remediation (last-mile fixes).

• Collaborate with global teams to ensure on-time execution of release schedules.

• Troubleshoot deployment failures and drive root cause analysis and permanent fixes.

• Implement automation for patching, deployment, and reporting using scripting and APIs.

• Ensure security compliance by addressing vulnerabilities and patch gaps.

• Analyze logs and telemetry (e.g., Splunk) to identify trends and improve deployment success rates.

• Support VDI environments (Horizon) including application layering and optimization.

• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, including zero-touch patching models.
