  • Design, implement, and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines for microservices and container-based deployments.
  • Manage and monitor cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
  • Support containerized environments using Docker and orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes or OpenShift.
  • Integrate security tools and best practices into development workflows through static and dynamic code analysis.
  • Harden environments and secure cloud-native architectures in collaboration with engineering and security teams.
  • Conduct vulnerability assessments and support compliance activities aligned with RMF, STIGs, and other frameworks.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to builds, deployments, and system performance.
  • Document configurations and contribute to the continuous improvement of DevSecOps processes and tooling.

What we're looking for

  • US citizenship is required.
  • Active Top Secret/SCI clearance with the ability to pass a polygraph examination.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field with 4–8 years of experience, or a Master's degree with 2–6 years of experience.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages including Python, Bash, or PowerShell.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), specifically using AWS CDK and ECS.
  • Experience with containerization and orchestration using Docker, Kubernetes, or OpenShift.
