• Monitoring and Reporting: Implement robust mechanisms for collecting metrics, logs, and device status information for comprehensive reporting to the administration console.

• Installation and Updates: Develop reliable installation, auto-update, and uninstallation processes for the agent, ensuring minimal disruption to end-users.

• Performance & Security Optimization: Optimize the agent for minimal resource consumption while adhering to stringent enterprise-level security standards, ensuring data protection and system integrity.

• Testing and Debugging: Conduct thorough testing across various Windows versions and effectively troubleshoot issues in diverse client environments, ensuring a stable and consistent user experience.

• Technical Documentation: Maintain up-to-date technical documentation and deployment guides for the agent to support internal teams and facilitate smooth deployments.

• Electron: Solid experience developing desktop applications with Electron (main process, renderer process, IPC).

• JavaScript/TypeScript: Proficiency in modern JavaScript (ES6+) and TypeScript for frontend agent development.

• Node.js: Experience with Node.js and its ecosystem (npm, native modules, child processes).

• Windows APIs: Familiarity with Windows APIs for device management (WMI, PowerShell, Windows Management Framework).

• Security: Knowledge of desktop application security (code signing, secure storage, encrypted communications).

• Networking: Understanding of network protocols, SSL/TLS certificates, and secure client-server communication.

• Knowledge of Windows development, familiarity with the Windows ecosystem (Registry, Services, Group Policies, etc.).

• Previous experience with MDM, EMM, or device management solutions.

• Experience with C# or .NET for native integration with Windows when necessary.

• Knowledge of Windows Installer (MSI) and packaging tools (WiX, Inno Setup).

• Experience with Native Node Modules and native extension compilation (node-gyp).

• Familiarity with PowerShell for scripting and automation in Windows.
