What You'll Do
In this role, you will design and manage cloud infrastructure on AWS to support mission-critical systems. You'll apply secure engineering principles to build resilient architectures aligned with zero-trust and defense-in-depth models. Your work will span the full lifecycle—from development and deployment to ongoing operations and optimization.
You will implement automation using infrastructure-as-code tools and integrate security into every phase of the pipeline through DevSecOps practices. This includes configuring CI/CD workflows, managing containerized applications with Kubernetes, and ensuring robust identity and access controls. You'll also support cloud migrations, maintain networking security in compliance with STIG guidelines, and ensure databases meet performance and reliability standards.
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience designing and operating cloud environments on AWS
- Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and Jenkins
- Strong background in CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and Kubernetes orchestration
- Hands-on experience securing cloud systems using IAM, monitoring frameworks, and compliance controls
- Ability to maintain adherence to SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and other regulatory standards
- Experience troubleshooting hybrid cloud, virtual, and physical systems
- Skilled in developing and maintaining both SQL and NoSQL databases
- Proven track record of documenting technical processes and collaborating across engineering, security, and operations teams
Benefits
This position supports a federal cloud initiative with opportunities for technical growth and impact. Work is conducted in a hybrid model, allowing flexibility while requiring periodic onsite presence. The role leverages modern tooling including Jira, Confluence, Artifactory, and Guacamole to streamline development and operations workflows.
Work Mode
Hybrid remote arrangement with required presence at Hanscom AFB (Boston, MA) or Huntsville, AL, as needed. Candidates near these locations are preferred.
