OverviewWe are seeking an experienced DevSecOps Engineer to help architect, secure, and scale the cloud infrastructure supporting our AI-powered operational intelligence platform. This role sits at the intersection of secure cloud engineering, CI/CD pipeline ownership, and platform reliability, as the program scales across an increasing number of government and commercial contracts.
The ideal candidate has 5+ years of hands-on experience with AWS and AWS GovCloud, has built and operated production-grade CI/CD pipelines, and brings a security-first mindset to infrastructure and deployment decisions. This position is ideal for an engineer who wants full ownership of infrastructure and delivery pipelines, from environment provisioning through secure production deployment, rather than a narrow slice of the stack.
This position is contingent upon contract award.LocationRemote / Hybrid (US Domestic)ClearanceAbility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance preferredEssential Role and Responsibilities- Design, build, and maintain secure cloud infrastructure in AWS and AWS GovCloud
