Zero-Touch Mac Deployment
Designed and implemented a fully automated Mac deployment pipeline. Devices ship directly to employees, enroll automatically, and are production-ready on first boot.
The Challenge
Mac setup required IT to physically handle every device. With remote employees nationwide, this was unsustainable.
The Approach
Implemented Apple Business Manager with Jamf Pro to create a true zero-touch experience. Devices ship from Apple directly to employees.
The Outcome
New hires receive production-ready Macs without IT ever touching them. Deployment time dropped from 2 days to 30 minutes.
