Position Overview
We are seeking a DevSecOps Engineer to build, secure, and maintain software delivery pipelines and supporting infrastructure for mission-focused applications. This role integrates security throughout the software development lifecycle and partners with development, cybersecurity, and operations teams to deliver reliable, compliant solutions.
The position requires on-site work at one of the listed client locations in a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF). The engineer will follow applicable security procedures for classified systems, information handling, and facility access.
Key Responsibilities
• Design, implement, and maintain continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines for applications deployed in restricted and classified environments.
• Integrate security testing into delivery workflows, including static code analysis, dependency scanning, container scanning, and secrets detection.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration management, and deployment using infrastructure as code and repeatable, version-controlled processes.
• Build and support containerized applications and orchestration platforms, including secure configuration, image management, and deployment troubleshooting.
• Harden operating systems, application platforms, and pipeline components in accordance with applicable client baselines and Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs).
• Support Risk Management Framework (RMF) and Authorization to Operate (ATO) activities by providing technical evidence, documenting controls, and tracking remediation.
• Manage software artifacts and approved dependencies, including controlled promotion and transfer processes for disconnected or limited-connectivity environments.
• Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting to improve system reliability, auditability, and incident response readiness.
• Troubleshoot build, deployment, infrastructure, and security issues in collaboration with development, cybersecurity, and operations teams.
• Maintain architecture documentation, operational runbooks, and recovery procedures while complying with classification and information-handling requirements.
Required Qualifications
• Active TS/SCI clearance and ability to maintain required access for the client assignment.
• Ability to work on-site in a SCIF at the client's location in Seal Beach, CA; Herndon, VA; or Satellite Beach, FL.
• Hands-on experience in DevSecOps, DevOps, software engineering, or infrastructure engineering, including production CI/CD implementation and support.
• Proficiency with Linux administration and scripting or automation using languages such as Python, Bash, or PowerShell.
• Experience with Git-based version control and CI/CD platforms such as GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management tools such as Terraform or Ansible.
• Experience with containers and orchestration technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, or OpenShift.
• Working knowledge of secure software development, vulnerability remediation, access control, secrets management, and software supply chain security.
• Understanding of networking, system troubleshooting, and secure operation of enterprise infrastructure.
• Ability to communicate technical issues clearly, document procedures, and collaborate across engineering and security teams.
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience supporting classified, air-gapped, or disconnected environments.
• Familiarity with RMF, ATO processes, STIG implementation, and NIST security control frameworks.
• Experience with software bills of materials (SBOMs), artifact signing, policy as code, and automated compliance checks.
• Experience supporting cloud, private-cloud, or hybrid infrastructure within an approved security boundary.
• Relevant cybersecurity, cloud, Linux, or Kubernetes certifications.
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, cybersecurity, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
