Job Description

Salary: $85,150 - 153,925 per year Requirements:

  • We prefer candidates with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, complemented by 4-8 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 2-4 years of experience (we may consider additional experience in lieu of a degree). You should possess an active DoD Secret clearance with eligibility for TS/SCI, and hold a DoD 8570 IAT Level I or higher certification (such as Security CE, CySA, SSCP). We expect extensive hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and similar container orchestration platforms. Experience with cloud-native services in Azure environments is also essential, alongside proficiency in infrastructure automation tools like Terraform, Ansible, and CloudFormation. You should be experienced in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar tools. A solid background in Linux system administration (particularly RHEL) is expected, along with a fundamental understanding of Git and modern version control workflows. Strong communication, collaboration, and mentoring skills are important as well.
Responsibilities:
  • In this position, you will lead the design and execution of robust, scalable infrastructure using Kubernetes and associated technologies. You will be responsible for architecting and optimizing highly available containerized systems for mission-critical applications. Collaboration with development and architecture teams is crucial to implement infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD solutions. You will guide DevOps automation utilizing tools like GitLab, Jenkins, Helm, Docker/Podman, Ansible, and others. Supporting cloud-first modernization initiatives utilizing AWS and Azure architectures will also be a significant part of your role. Additionally, you will re-architect and maintain Kubernetes clusters, ensuring their resiliency, performance, and security. Proactively troubleshooting container orchestration environments and providing expert-level incident support will be key tasks. Mentoring junior engineers and leading technical initiatives aimed at improving reliability, deployment velocity, and system health will further enhance your role. You will analyze technology gaps and advocate for continuous improvement across DevOps pipelines and infrastructure.
