We are building internal tools in the same category as Zoom and GoGuardian, video conferencing and student monitoring on student Macs, and we need someone experienced to look at our processes, catch what we are missing, and help us raise the bar on how we ship and manage this software across the fleet. What You'll Do * Review Our QA Processes: Look at how we currently test and validate our internal Mac tooling. Tell us where the gaps are, what is missing, and what a mature process should look like at our stage. * Audit MDM Deployment Flows: Review how we package, deploy, and manage installation of PKGs across our managed Mac fleet. Flag risks, brittleness, and rollback gaps. * Evaluate TCC and PPPC Configuration: Review how we handle privacy permissions, PPPC profiles, and TCC prompts for our video conferencing and student monitoring tools. Make sure we are doing this cleanly and predictably. * Pressure-Test the Student Experience: Walk through what a student actually sees on a managed Mac when our tools are deployed, updated, or fail. Identify where the experience breaks or looks unprofessional. * Advise the Team: Give our engineering and IT team direct, practical feedback. Write it up clearly so we can act on it. * Recommend Tooling and Standards: Point us to the tools, patterns, and standards we should adopt to make this repeatable as we grow. ## Related Videos - [JavaScript?
