  • Build Infrastructure-as-Code frameworks using tools like Terraform or Ansible to provision and configure environments.
  • Automate security compliance workflows including STIG scanning, vulnerability assessments, and configuration validation.
  • Develop containerization and orchestration solutions using Docker and Kubernetes tailored for classified networks.
  • Create monitoring and logging infrastructure to support security operations, troubleshooting, and incident response.
  • Architect durable technical solutions to resolve developer pain points and process deficiencies.
  • Ensure deployed systems meet customer security requirements in coordination with system administrators and security personnel.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 5+ years of experience in the field.
  • Proficiency in programming and scripting languages such as Python and Bash.
  • Experience with CI/CD tools like GitLab CI, Jenkins, or GitHub Actions.
  • Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code tools including Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.
  • Working knowledge of containerization (Docker) and orchestration platforms (Kubernetes).
  • Understanding of Linux system administration, networking, and software engineering fundamentals.
  • Must possess and be able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
  • Experience in classified DoD/IC environments, ATO processes, or STIG implementation (preferred).
  • Familiarity with SCAP tools, secure supply chain practices, or zero-trust architectures (preferred).
  • Proficiency with observability tools, PKI management, or air-gapped deployments (preferred).
  • Relevant certifications such as Security+, CISSP, or AWS/Azure security certifications (preferred).
