  • Deploy systems in secure, air-gapped, or Disconnected, Disseminated, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) environments.
  • Translate mission and reliability requirements into resilient, automated platform designs.
  • Lead teams to deliver technical solutions for modernizing legacy computing platforms and applications.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in CS or Engineering and 8+ years of experience in infrastructure or platform engineering, including technical leadership on production systems.
  • 12+ years of experience in infrastructure or platform engineering, including technical leadership on production systems, in lieu of a degree.
  • Experience operating Kubernetes at production scale, including cluster deployment, day-2 operations, upgrades, and security hardening.
  • Experience with CI/CD and GitOps pipelines using tools such as GitLab CI, Jenkins, and ArgoCD or Flux.
  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code and configuration management using Terraform and Ansible.
  • Experience implementing and operating an observability stack such as Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK or OpenTelemetry.
  • Experience designing and deploying systems in secure, air-gapped, or DDIL environments.
  • Ability to obtain a Secret clearance.
  • DoD 8570 IAT Level II Security+ CE Certification.
  • Experience with service mesh technologies such as Istio, Linkerd, or Consul (preferred).
  • Experience deploying and sustaining containerized platforms in DoD environments, including Platform One, Big Bang, or Iron Bank (preferred).
  • Experience engineering for the tactical edge and hardening deployments for DDIL and disconnected operations (preferred).
  • Experience with C2, ISR, or other mission-critical DoD systems and their operational constraints (preferred).
  • Experience implementing DevSecOps practices, including container scanning, STIG compliance, and policy enforcement (preferred).
  • Experience with secrets management and Zero Trust patterns such as HashiCorp Vault and SPIFFE or SPIRE (preferred).
