Job was a 42 chapter book that gives descriptions on the power and abilities of Devils/ demons.
Satan modified atmospheric powers to kill Job's children with shear winds from 4 directions. BTW, people still have trouble believing that can happen. We see him using technologies through people to bring destruction today. There's no reason to doubt that he still
uses some sort of angelic power to do likewise.
Satan sent his armies to kill Job's servants and steal all his livestock.
He also tried to discourage Job by speaking through his wife. We don't know if it was possession or influence as we saw with Peter speaking against the Lord's purpose and plan to die for the sins of humanity.
Although not expressly described, it would be reasonable to believe that he influenced or moved Jobs friends to bring him down as well.
Having experienced multiple tragedies and severe traumatic experiences last year, I can attest that Job went through even more; but easily could have died from the stress, depression, PTSD, and despair.
For all of those attacks, Satan never indwelt this believer, Job.
