Job description

  • Provides advanced expertise and leadership in endpoint engineering and management services for the Defense Health Agency's extensive and diverse IT infrastructure.

  • Serves as a key specialist responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing endpoint management solutions across DHA's global network of military hospitals, medical clinics, and dental clinics.

  • Leads the development and implementation of comprehensive endpoint engineering strategies that align with DoD cybersecurity requirements, Risk Management Framework (RMF), NIST guidelines, and various DoD strategies including Zero Trust, ICAM, and Digital Modernization.

  • Ensures these strategies are effectively implemented across approximately 250,000 end-user devices, including desktops, laptops, mobile devices, and medical equipment.

  • Designs and oversees the implementation of advanced endpoint management architectures, including mobile device management (MDM), enterprise mobility management (EMM), and unified endpoint management (UEM) solutions.

  • Ensures seamless integration of these systems with DHA's existing IT infrastructure and security controls.

  • Develops and implements robust endpoint security measures, including endpoint detection and response (EDR), advanced threat protection, data loss prevention (DLP), and encryption technologies.

  • Ensures that all endpoints maintain a strong security posture against evolving cyber threats.

  • Oversee the implementation and management of patch management processes for all endpoints, ensuring timely application of security updates and maintaining compliance with DoD security standards.

  • Develops and implements strategies for secure remote access and telework capabilities, ensuring that off-site endpoints maintain the same level of security and compliance as on-premises devices.

  • Leads efforts to automate endpoint management processes, developing scripts and leveraging AI and machine learning technologies to enhance efficiency, reduce human error, and improve security in endpoint-related operations.

  • Provides expert guidance on endpoint engineering best practices to IT and security teams across DHA.

  • Develops and delivers training programs to ensure all relevant personnel understand and adhere to established endpoint management policies and procedures.

  • Collaborates with clinical engineering teams to develop secure management strategies for medical devices and other specialized endpoints, balancing security requirements with clinical functionality and regulatory compliance. Generates regular reports on the state of endpoint management within DHA, including metrics on device compliance, security incidents, and operational efficiency.
