• Troubleshoot complex issues spanning applications, operating systems, networks, cloud platforms, identity systems, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Build and maintain documentation, including standard operating procedures, technical guides, and system artifacts.
• Support infrastructure as code practices and cloud automation initiatives in controlled and mission-focused environments.
• Participate in Agile engineering activities, including planning, execution, and iterative delivery cycles.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and act as a task or technical lead when required.
• Collaborate with infrastructure, security, network, and application teams to ensure integrated and secure delivery pipelines.
• Ensure system stability, operational readiness, and continuous improvement of engineering processes and tooling.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in software development, DevOps, automation engineering, or systems engineering in mission-critical environments.
• Strong hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, source control systems, and automation frameworks.
• Proficiency in scripting and programming languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash.

• Strong understanding of DevSecOps principles, including security scanning, vulnerability remediation, and compliance workflows.
• Experience working with containerized environments and infrastructure as code tools.
• Demonstrated expertise in troubleshooting complex distributed systems across multiple technical layers.
• Familiarity with Git-based workflows and pipeline orchestration tools such as GitLab CI/CD or similar platforms.
• Experience in regulated, government, defense, or highly secure environments is strongly preferred.
• Ability to work independently, manage technical priorities, and deliver under limited supervision.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical issues to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders.
• Relevant certification such as Security+ CE or equivalent DoD 8570/8140 baseline certification required.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience preferred.

Benefits

• Competitive annual salary ranging from $149,469 to $201,250 , depending on experience and location.
