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.
