System Administrator – MECM / Endpoint Operations

Description

The System Administrator will provide hands-on administration and operational support for Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM)–managed environments in a DoD setting. This role is endpoint-first, with supporting responsibilities across Windows Server systems. The ideal candidate has direct experience owning MECM deployments, patching, imaging, and lifecycle management, and operates comfortably in an enterprise, security-conscious environment using ServiceNow.

This position is not cybersecurity- or RMF-focused; it is an operations-driven system administration role supporting daily endpoint and server reliability.

Core Responsibilities (Primary)

• Own day-to-day MECM operations, including:
  • PXE boot imaging
  • Application/package deployment
  • Software updates and patching
  • Collections, task sequences, and reporting
• Execute IAVA-compliant patching and endpoint lifecycle management.
• Perform workstation and endpoint configuration, refreshes, and remediation.
• Support endpoint compliance and operational readiness in classified and unclassified environments.
• Track and resolve incidents, changes, and requests using ServiceNow.

Supporting Responsibilities (Secondary)

• Administer Windows Server 2012+ systems (AD, GPOs, patching, upgrades).
• Monitor system health and performance; resolve operational issues.
• Assist with documentation and change control artifacts as needed.
• Coordinate hardware refreshes and system upgrades.

Requirements

Required Qualifications

• Hands-on MECM experience (must have direct operational ownership).
• 2+ years of system administration experience in an enterprise environment.
• Experience with patching, imaging, and endpoint lifecycle management.
• ServiceNow experience.
• DoD 8140 / 8570 compliant (Security+ CE).
• Active Confidential or higher clearance.

Nice to Have (Not Required)

• Windows Server administration beyond core operations.
• Familiarity with DoD clinical or mission systems.
