IT Systems Engineer - Quant Trading Organization
Remote job in Chicago, IL
We're looking for an experienced Endpoint Engineer to join a global technology team at a leading quantitative trading firm. This is a unique opportunity to take full responsibility for modern endpoint management and identity systems in a fast-paced, high-performance environment - where your expertise directly supports the technology driving global financial markets.
As part of the infrastructure team, you'll oversee endpoint devices across multiple international offices, manage identity and access systems, and strengthen endpoint security. You'll play a critical role in ensuring the reliability, compliance, and performance of an advanced global infrastructure. The ideal candidate is hands-on, solutions-focused, and thrives when working at scale with both Windows and mac OS environments.
This is a role for someone who wants to build, not just maintain - someone capable of designing and implementing enterprise endpoint systems from the ground up. If you've led small teams, deployed Intune or Jamf in production, and enjoy owning complex environments end to end, you'll fit right in.
Responsibilities
Manage and maintain all enterprise endpoint devices (Windows 11 and mac OS) using MDM platforms such as Microsoft Intune and Jamf Pro
Configure, administer, and support the Microsoft 365 Suite - including Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive for Business
Oversee Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory), including Conditional Access Policies, Dynamic Groups, and Enterprise Applications
Implement and maintain endpoint protection solutions
Ensure compliance with enterprise security standards, device policies, and data protection frameworks
Support and troubleshoot endpoint, identity, and access issues across global offices and remote environments
Collaborate with infrastructure, security, and operations teams to improve endpoint management and security posture
Contribute to the development and automation of processes using Power Automate, Logic Apps, or similar tools
Requirements
Proven experience managing Windows 11 and mac OS endpoints in enterprise environments using Intune and/or Jamf Pro
Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365 administration, including collaboration and automation tools
Deep understanding of Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Conditional Access, and application management
Demonstrated experience implementing endpoint protection and security solutions
Broad technical background - experience in smaller environments with wide responsibility is ideal
Prior experience owning or building endpoint and M365 environments from scratch
Salary
Up to $150,000 base salary (flexible, depending on experience)
Discretionary annual bonus
Company perks
Location
Chicago (on-site)
Work from home opportunities
Join a global, technology-driven firm where you'll have the autonomy to design, implement, and secure modern endpoint environments - all while working alongside some of the brightest minds in finance and engineering
