• Offers Equity What You'll Be Doing Architect, automate, test, deploy, and maintain a well-designed, highly available cloud infrastructure in AWS GovCloud and AWS C2E with a strong focus on security, compliance, and operational excellence. You will ensure adherence to SOC2, NIST 800-171, and FedRAMP Moderate controls while supporting cleared environments and workflows. You will also manage the deployment and ongoing maintenance of the company deployments at government sites. As the team grows, you will define best practices for availability, latency, and performance across all services. A key mission focus will be driving the company's readiness and deployment onto AWS C2E, including control implementation, continuous container hardening, deployment configuration, and networking requirements. Some of your responsibilities will include incident management, supporting a 24/7 on-call rotation, and technical troubleshooting of complex enterprise and mission-critical systems. Ideally, the systems and automation you create significantly reduce the need for manual intervention. You will work closely with engineering teams (frontend, backend, and flight/mission operations engineers) to ensure the company system is operational to all required performance metrics. Technical Skills - Deep experience with Kubernetes, containerized workloads, and serverless architectures - Expertise managing Kubernetes clusters with AWS EKS or Rancher as well as with integrating AWS cloud-specific services - Hands-on experience supporting GovCloud, IL-enclave deployments, or C2E environments - Experience managing and using observability stacks such as Grafana LGTM, Datadog, etc. - Proficiency in Python and Terraform (or similar IaC tooling) - Strong understanding of networking: VPNs, NLB/ALBs, HTTPS, TLS, VPC peering, and CDN integration - Strong knowledge of designing, analyzing, and troubleshooting API services, distributed NoSQL/relational databases, caching systems, event-driven architectures, and multi-tier systems - Strong background in task automation and CI/CD pipeline development (GitLab Workflows preferred but not required) - Understanding of Unix/Linux operating systems - Knowledge of cloud security best practices, enclave boundary protections, enclave-to-enclave interconnects, and cost-efficient architectures - Experience with identity and access management (Auth0, Keycloak, AWS IAM, or ICAM patterns) - Strong git fundamentals and preferred experience managing software product deployment across multiple classification levels. Qualifications - Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field - 3+ years of professional experience as an SRE, DevOps, reliability, infrastructure, or platform engineer - Active U.S. Security Clearance (Secret or higher required; TS/SCI preferred) - U.S. Citizenship required - Experience working toward ATO/authorization in federal, DoD, or IC environments preferred - Experience supporting deployments in GovCloud, C2S/C2E, or IL-enclave environments highly desirable ITAR REQUIREMENTS - To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
