We value engineers who are curious, creative, technically driven, and willing to challenge the way things have always been done.\nWhy This Role?\nYou won't spend your career simply following someone else's procedure.\nYou will build the platform, automate the process, solve the difficult problem, and improve what comes next.\nIf you enjoy understanding how technology really works, connecting the dots across systems, and turning complex problems into reliable enterprise solutions, this is an opportunity to make an impact at scale.\nBuild it. Automate it. Solve it. Improve it.\nMEANINGFUL WORK AND PERSONAL IMPACT\nRequired\nExperience engineering, administering, or supporting enterprise Windows desktop environments.\nExperience building, maintaining, or deploying Windows desktop images.\nExperience with application installation, packaging, configuration, deployment, or lifecycle management.\nExperience with PowerShell or another scripting/programming language.\nWHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED\nBring your technology expertise and drive for innovation to GDIT.
