DevSecOps Engineer

Requisition: 1429

Job Title: DevSecOps Engineer

Location: Remote

Clearance Level: Secret Eligible

Reports To: VP of Platform Engineering

Position Summary

We are seeking a DevSecOps Engineer with 3–5 years of experience to join a specialized Agile Pod dedicated to building and sustaining a secure, automated software delivery factory. This role is focused on implementing a modern, end-to-end toolchain—encompassing Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and Cloud Development Environments (CDE)—tailored for mission-critical environments requiring an ATO (Authority to Operate).

As a core member of this team, you will bridge the gap between high-level architecture and hands-on implementation. You will be responsible for engineering "Security as Code" within restricted and air-gapped environments, ensuring that infrastructure is not only automated but fully compliant with NIST 800-53/FedRAMP standards. We are looking for a builder who thrives on solving complex integration challenges and is ready to own the technical lifecycle of a hardened DevSecOps platform.

Key Responsibilities

1. Secure Platform Implementation

· Deploy and configure enterprise-grade software delivery platforms (CI/CD), automated infrastructure tools, and centralized development environments across diverse hosting models (on-prem, private cloud, or air-gapped).

· Implement hardened installations, including SSO/IAM integration, RBAC, and strict segregation of duties.

· Manage secrets and encryption using enterprise tools (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, HSM, or KMS) within highly regulated network boundaries.

2. Automated Infrastructure & Governance

· Utilize low-code or automated platforms to design and generate production-ready Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or OpenTofu).

· Build and maintain standardized pipeline foundations, including "Golden Templates" and policy guardrails that automate security approvals and ensure mission compliance.

· Orchestrate secure, scalable developer workspaces (CDEs) to ensure environment consistency for both human developers and AI coding agents.

3. Compliance, ATO & Sustainment

· Translate technical configurations into NIST 800-53/FedRAMP evidence (system diagrams, control mappings, and configuration baselines) to accelerate security assessments.

· Provide post-implementation support, including platform patching, upgrade execution, and audit log/telemetry health checks.

· Troubleshoot complex toolchain integration issues across the SDLC, from code scanning to deployment verification.

Required Qualifications

· Experience: 3–5 years in DevSecOps, SRE, or Cloud Engineering.

· Security Clearance: Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Secret Clearance.

· Hardened Environments: Proven experience working in restricted, air-gapped, or regulated environments (e.g., GovCloud, FedRAMP, or RMF-governed systems).

· Infrastructure as Code: Strong proficiency in Terraform or OpenTofu.

· Container Orchestration: Hands-on experience with Kubernetes (networking, storage, and security policies).

· Networking Fundamentals: Deep understanding of TLS, network proxies, and "evidence-friendly" telemetry for audit logging.

Preferred Qualifications

· Prior experience with enterprise CI/CD orchestration platforms.

· Experience with Cloud Development Environments (CDEs) or remote workspace orchestration.

· Experience generating documentation for RMF (Risk Management Framework) or ATO packages.

The Project Mission

You will be part of an Agile Pod focused on "Shift Left" security. Your work will directly enable developers to move faster while remaining within the safety of automated guardrails, helping our mission partners achieve operational readiness and maintain their accreditation posture as the environment evolves.
