Summary and responsibilities

Role overview

Summary

As a Device Administrator at The Exploration Company, you will design, implement, and maintain a secure and automated endpoint environment. Your role involves managing MDM architecture, zero-touch provisioning, application lifecycle, security compliance, and hardware asset management for Windows, macOS, and mobile devices.

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.

We want you, as a talented Device Administrator, to help us in our mission by building a world-class, secure, and automated endpoint environment.

Key Responsibilities:

  • MDM Architecture & Management: Design, implement, and maintain Microsoft Intune policies (Configuration Profiles, Compliance Policies, and Endpoint Security) for Windows, macOS, and mobile devices.

  • Zero-Touch Provisioning: Manage and optimize automated deployment workflows using Windows Autopilot and Apple Business Manager to ensure a seamless onboarding experience.

  • Application Lifecycle Management: Package, deploy, and update software across the fleet, ensuring all mission-critical tools are available and secure.

  • Security & Compliance: Enforce security baselines, encryption (BitLocker/FileVault), and integrate device compliance with Entra ID Conditional Access to protect our sensitive data.

  • Hardware Asset Management: Track and manage the full lifecycle of hardware inventory across sites, from procurement to decommissioning.

  • Advanced Technical Support: Act as the escalation point for complex hardware and software issues, providing expert-level troubleshooting for the end-user environment.

  • Collaboration: Work closely with the DevOps and Central IT teams to align device management with global infrastructure and security standards.

What we would love to see from you

In the role of an IT Administrator, ideally, you will have the following:

  • Proven Expertise in Modern Device Management: Deep experience in MDM administration, specifically with Microsoft Intune and Endpoint Manager.

  • M365 & Identity Mastery: Strong knowledge of Entra ID (Azure AD), including groups, administrative units, and identity-driven security.

  • Automation Skills: Proficiency in PowerShell (or Bash) for automating device configurations and administrative tasks.

  • Multi-OS Proficiency: Comfortable managing a hybrid environment of Windows and macOS (experience with Jamf or similar tools is a plus).

  • High Attention to Detail: An uncompromising approach to configuration quality and security standards.

  • Strong Analytical Skills: Ability to troubleshoot complex deployment failures and system errors.

Why you should join us!

What makes us special here at The Exploration Company and why we think you will enjoy working here is:

  • We’re Agile - we make decisions fast whilst keeping our goals and systems in mind

  • We’re Open and Collaborative - we are transparent about risks and obstacles, so that we can cooperate to overcome them

  • We have a lot of Fun - we refuel our energy knowing we are democratising space. It’s a wonderful and rare opportunity, are YOU up for the challenge?

Relocation assistance is provided for those willing to relocate including visa sponsorship where applicable.
