We’re supporting a major UK Government department looking for a seasoned macOS DevOps/Platform Engineer to lead the build, configuration, and automated management of a brand-new, secure MacBook setup for the team.

What you’ll do:

• Architecture & Review: Evaluate proposed device builds, security lockdowns, and enterprise tooling for a fleet of managed MacBooks.
• Proof of Concept (PoC): Lead PoCs for remote device management and automated, scalable provisioning using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) via Terraform pipelines.
• Production Build: Build and configure production instances of your tools, ensuring integration with an Identity Provider (IdP) and establishing log feeds to a SIEM system.
• Fleet Management & Support: Take ownership of the end-to-end device life cycle (inventory, provisioning, onboarding, and offboarding) while providing high-quality technical support to end-users.

Who you are:

• macOS Expert: Deep, practical knowledge of macOS (both GUI and command line) with proven experience implementing stringent security lockdowns (eg, NCSC or CIS Benchmarks).
• Jamf Master: Hands-on experience setting up and managing the full Jamf suite (Pro, Protect, ZTNA, and Connect) across a corporate or regulated enterprise environment.
• IaC Practitioner: Direct experience using Jamf Pro alongside a Terraform provider and CI/CD pipelines to provision Apple devices via code.
• Autonomy & Drive: 5+ years of dedicated enterprise experience. You are someone who thrives when given a high-level technical objective, creates the solution, tests it, and rolls it out successfully without needing constant direction.
• Background: Prior experience in highly regulated environments (eg, Aerospace, Cyber Security, Finance, Telecoms, or wider Government).
