About the role

Engineering role responsible for end-to-end management of Anthropic's device fleet (primarily macOS) including MDM infrastructure, configuration as code, patching, telemetry, and security hardening in collaboration with Security and Infrastructure teams.

Responsibilities

  • Own endpoint configuration as code: author, review, test, and progressively roll out MDM policies, configuration profiles, and remediation scripts across macOS and mobile, with canary stages and rollback built in
  • Operate the MDM platform itself as a production service, including infrastructure as code, observability, upgrades, and incident response
  • Build patch management automation with rapid enforcement timelines while maintaining good user experience
  • Design zero touch provisioning that turns a sealed box into a productive machine on day one
  • Support a small number of Linux machines alongside the Mac fleet
  • Turn fleet telemetry into policy, dashboards, and early drift warnings, and use Claude to automate manual ops work
  • Partner with Corporate Security on endpoint hardening, binary authorization, and compliance controls
  • Take shifts on the team's rotation for incoming requests and escalations, and serve as the deep escalation tier for endpoint issues IT Operations can't resolve

Qualifications

  • 8+ years building secure IT systems in complex environments, including leading projects across multiple teams
  • Managed endpoint fleets of thousands of macOS devices through a modern MDM
  • Treat endpoint configuration as code that is version controlled and peer reviewed
  • Go deep on macOS internals such as launchd, configuration profiles, TCC, and system extensions
  • Write Python and shell scripts
  • Write design docs and runbooks so teammates can review and support what you build
