About this role

We are looking for an Endpoint Security Engineer to own the security of Nexthink’s corporate endpoint estate: roughly 1,200 devices (550 macOS, 650 Windows) managed through Microsoft Intune and Jamf. You will turn endpoint security from a set of point controls into a measurable, continuously improving program covering what runs on our devices, how quickly we patch them, and how we prove it to auditors. This is a hands-on role at a pivotal moment, as we build out a dedicated security function.

Your first priorities include application baselines and allowlisting, a formal application lifecycle from approval to removal, and stronger vulnerability and compliance posture across both platforms. As a company that sells digital employee experience, we expect security that protects people without getting in their way. Key Responsibilities Endpoint Hardening Define and maintain security baselines for macOS and Windows (CIS or equivalent), delivered through Intune and Jamf.

Own hardening standards: disk encryption, firewall, local admin removal and privilege management. Evaluate endpoint security tooling and steer vendors while keeping internal ownership of design. Application Control & Software Governance Design and roll out application allowlisting using MDM-native capabilities and/or tools such as Santa, with developer-friendly exception models for Engineering and Product. Build and maintain the software and binary inventory: discover, classify and risk-rate applications, and define baselines from the results.

Run remediation campaigns for unauthorized or high-risk software, from communication to uninstallation and verification. Operate the application lifecycle process end to end: request, security review, deployment, monitoring and retirement. Vulnerability & Patch Management Own endpoint vulnerability management: scanning, risk-based prioritization and remediation tracking against SLAs. Define patching and update rings for OS and third-party applications with EUC across macOS and Windows.

Drive remediation of critical and zero-day vulnerabilities and report on exposure and performance to Security leadership. Zero Trust & Data Protection Partner with IAM and Security to enforce device compliance and device trust in Conditional Access. Support endpoint data protection controls (e.g. Microsoft Purview DLP, USB and removable media controls) and hardware-backed authentication such as passkeys and security keys.
