IT Systems Engineer - Quant Trading Organization (Chicago)

Were 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, youll oversee endpoint devices across multiple international offices, manage identity and access systems, and strengthen endpoint security. Youll 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 macOS 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 youve led small teams, deployed Intune or Jamf in production, and enjoy owning complex environments end to end, youll fit right in.

Responsibilities

• Manage and maintain all enterprise endpoint devices (Windows 11 and macOS) 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
