End User Compute (EUC) Architect

Own the end-to-end virtual application design that delivers MEPS+ Browse to users. You are accountable for the Omnissa Access cluster, the Horizon brokering layer, the SecureEdgeForMEPS+ published application and the Windows Server 2025 hosting pool - and for making the service resilient across two Horizon PODs and two data centres. You translate the requirements into a buildable design, lead the build with the platform engineers, and hand a stable service to operations. Key responsibilities Design and stand up the dedicated Omnissa Access 26.07 cluster designated for MEPS+ Browse access only, publishing the single Access cluster URL that endpoints target. Design the Horizon Broker 2603 configuration and publish Edge.exe as the SecureEdgeForMEPS+ application, so users see a single launch icon after authentication. Design and size the Windows Server 2025 hosting pool (the 1..X load-balanced servers) for concurrent MEPS+ demand with N+1 resilience headroom. Create the global entitlement that spans the two Horizon PODs so the published app is resilient across BAS and FAR data centres. Define the endpoint experience: the additional desktop icon / URL on the 20 30 dedicated thin clients and the local-browser launch to the Access URL. Work with the Security Architect to apply the Edge managed-browser lockdown that constrains the session to MEPS+ Browse. Produce build sheets, test plans (including POD/data-centre failover) and operational runbooks; lead functional and resilience testing and the pilot. Own the migration approach from the existing CVAD browse path and the cutover/rollback plan., Location Designation: Hybrid - 3 days per week About the Role As the Vice President of End User Computing at New York Life, you will be the strategic and operational leader dri…
