• Understand application behaviors under MAM policies, informed by established AFS user experience patterns (e.g., MAM job aids showing app protection flows).
• Manage Intune application wrapping, ingestion of LOB apps, app assignment strategies, version control, rollout rings, and deployment monitoring.
• Configure MAM policies, app protection policies, conditional launch requirements, data protection settings, and user exception handling.
• Gather full app inventories, analyze dependencies, identify repackaging needs, and build a migration readiness matrix.

• Troubleshoot install failures, certificate/signing issues, dependency gaps, and Intune deployment failures by reviewing logs (Intune Management Extension, Event Viewer, mobile logs) and producing root cause analysis.
• Collaborate with security, platform engineering, and app owners to produce packaging guides, change records, deployment plans, and rollback procedures.
