Senior Platform Engineer

Quevera is looking for a Senior Platform Engineer who's ready to take on a mission-critical role in shaping cloud infrastructure and automation strategies in one of the most secure environments in the country. This is more than a job — it's a chance to lead the transformation of cloud-native operations for national security.

You'll be embedded with a high-performing engineering team, working hands-on with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, and a full modern DevOps toolchain to design scalable, secure platforms that deliver continuous impact.

REQUIRED - MUST have a current TS/SCI Polygraph clearance to apply for role. Only those with a current TS/SCI with Poly clearance will be considered.

What You'll Do:

Architect and implement highly available, automated cloud environments using AWS, Terraform, and Kubernetes.

Drive infrastructure-as-code best practices, enabling consistent, repeatable deployments across all environments.

Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines with tools like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Ansible.

Spearhead containerization and orchestration strategies with Docker and EKS.

Collaborate in Agile teams, delivering solutions aligned to evolving mission goals.

Lead with a problem-solver's mindset, mentoring others and setting technical direction.

Your Toolbelt:

7+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, or SRE roles.

Deep hands-on knowledge of Kubernetes, AWS (VPC, EC2, S3, EKS/ECS), and Terraform.

Skilled in scripting (Python, Bash, Ruby) and automation workflows.

Experienced with infrastructure as code using Terraform or CloudFormation.

Solid grasp of CI/CD practices and tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions).

Comfortable in Linux environments, with strong networking and security fundamentals.

Must hold CWIP IAT Level I certification.

Minimum Education: A BS in Computer Science, or related discipline, or equivalent years of experience.

Why You Should Apply:

Mission impact – Build infrastructure that directly supports national security.

Cutting-edge tech stack – You won't just use tools — you'll help shape how they're used.

Leadership role – Be the go-to expert. Influence architecture, mentor teammates, and set the bar high.

High-trust environment – Work onsite with a tight-knit team where every contribution matters.

Career growth – Step into a senior-level role with opportunities to grow into lead or principal positions.

This role requires an active TS/SCI clearance with Polygraph. If you thrive in complex technical environments and want to make a real-world impact, we want to hear from you. Apply today and engineer the future with Quevera.
