We are seeking a highly detail-oriented Deployment Hardware Technician to support end-user technology across a fast-paced private equity environment. This role is responsible for the imaging, deployment, lifecycle management, and optimization of hardware within a Microsoft Windows ecosystem, ensuring seamless delivery of technology to investment professionals and business teams. This individual will operate in a high-performance, low-latency environment where reliability, speed, and precision are critical to business success.
Key Responsibilities
- Configure, image, and deploy Windows-based endpoints (laptops, desktops, trading floor setups) using standardized build processes
- Manage hardware lifecycle: procurement support, asset tagging, inventory tracking, refresh cycles, and secure decommissioning
- Execute zero-touch / low-touch deployments leveraging tools such as Microsoft Endpoint Manager, Autopilot, and imaging solutions
- Troubleshoot hardware and OS-level issues (drivers, BIOS/firmware, peripherals, docking stations, multi-monitor setups)
- Support executive and investment teams with white-glove desk setups, office moves, and rapid onboarding
- Maintain and improve deployment workflows through PowerShell scripting and automation
- Ensure compliance with security standards including patching, encryption, and endpoint hardening
- Collaborate with infrastructure, security, and networking teams to ensure consistent endpoint performance and connectivity
- Document build standards, deployment procedures, and asset management practices
Required Qualifications
- 1 - 3 years of experience in hardware deployment, desktop engineering, or IT support within a Windows environment
- Strong experience with Windows 10/11 imaging, deployment, and troubleshooting
- Hands-on experience with Microsoft Intune and/or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager
- Familiarity with Azure AD / Entra ID, group policies, and endpoint security controls
- Experience supporting high-demand users (finance, trading floor, or executive environments preferred)
- Solid understanding of hardware components (CPU, RAM, storage, peripherals) and troubleshooting techniques
- Basic scripting experience (PowerShell preferred) for automation and deployment efficiency
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in private equity, hedge fund, or financial services environments
- Exposure to MDM/MAM, endpoint security tools, and compliance frameworks
- Familiarity with asset management systems and ITIL-based processes
- Experience supporting multi-site or global office deployments
What Makes This Role Different
- Direct support of investment professionals where uptime and speed matter
- High visibility—your work directly impacts onboarding, productivity, and trading readiness
- Lean team environment with ownership over the full device lifecycle
- Opportunity to modernize deployment practices (automation, cloud-first endpoint management)
Ideal Candidate Profile
Someone who:
- Takes pride in clean, consistent builds and efficient deployments
- Moves with urgency but doesn’t sacrifice quality
- Understands that in a PE environment, downtime = real financial impact
- Is proactive about improving processes, not just executing them
