Job Role: macOS Enterprise Architect Multi-Tenant Strategy & Endpoint Lifecycle
Location: Remote
Duration : 6-12 Months Contract

Role Summary

As the macOS Enterprise Architect, you will define and drive the architecture for macOS lifecycle management in a large-scale, multi-tenant enterprise environment. You will evaluate and optimize tooling for device enrollment, app deployment, authentication, and compliance-supporting enterprise ownership transitions across organizational domains. You will also guide identity, MDM, and MAM integrations while aligning macOS strategy with overall risk and operational objectives.

Collaboration across Windows and hybrid platform architects, endpoint engineering, and security stakeholders will be key to ensuring macOS devices are securely and consistently managed at scale.

Key Responsibilities

  • Architect the macOS strategy and governance model for multi-tenant environments
  • Lead initiatives related to Apple Business Manager (ABM), Push Certificate lifecycle, and JAMF Pro environment configuration
  • Design enrollment workflows (kitted vs. out-of-box), authentication flows, and provisioning models
  • Assess and refine macOS deployment strategies, configuration profiles, and self-service application catalogs
  • Support migration planning and testing across managed Mac environments
  • Establish policy baselines aligned to industry and internal standards (e.g., CIS Benchmarks)
  • Integrate with enterprise identity platforms (e.g., Entra ID) and supporting tooling
  • Collaborate with vendors, Apple support, and internal teams for MDM/ABM coordination
  • Align macOS architectural decisions with enterprise security posture strategy (e.g., Prisma Cloud, ServiceNow)

Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in macOS platform engineering or architecture in enterprise environments
  • Proven hands-on experience with JAMF Pro, ABM, Intune, and certificate lifecycle management
  • Expertise in Apple device provisioning, PreStage profiles, and modern authentication models
  • Knowledge of macOS hardening techniques and compliance benchmarks (e.g., CIS, FileVault, Gatekeeper)
  • Experience supporting tenant transitions or mergers involving Apple endpoints
  • Scripting and automation capabilities (e.g., Bash, Python, Swift)
  • Strong communication skills and comfort interfacing across IT, cyber, and operations leadership

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience leading tenant/domain transition projects in a large enterprise
  • Familiarity with tools such as AutoPkg, Munki, Nudge, and Extension Attributes
  • Experience working with Apple and Mac hardware vendors for enterprise integration
  • Exposure to enterprise posture tools such as Prisma Cloud or workflow platforms like ServiceNow
  • Knowledge of cross-platform endpoint strategy in hybrid environments (e.g., SCCM, Windows Autopilot)
