Description
Lead DevOps Engineer
The Team:
Information processing and sense-making systems are the lifeblood of national security efforts, facilitating an understanding of the global situation, strategic planning, and tactical execution. The reliability, accessibility, and sophistication of these systems can determine the outcomes of conflicts before they begin. STR’s Analytics and Command & Control (AC2) Division focuses on developing actionable, advanced technology solutions to provide asymmetric advantages within the information domain.
The Mission Applications (MA) Group within the AC2 Division creates outsized mission impact with our customers through specialized application and deployment of STR technology. Staff within the MA group have a deep understanding of missions and technology needs for national security with skills targeting transition of technology to operational use, including product management, UX Product implementation, software integration & mission engineering, platform engineering, DevOps, and program management. MA staff combine with other engineering staff from the various STR research and development groups to form dedicated product teams focused on accelerating the operational transition of cutting-edge software technologies.
The Role:
As a DevOps Engineer in the Mission Applications Group, you will work as a leader of software teams to design, develop, and maintain infrastructure and tooling to deploy software in operational use. You have experience managing relationships with customer environments while simultaneously leading engineering teams to ensure the delivered product meets the highest standards of quality, reliability, and performance. You will work as part of tightly knit Agile software teams to design and implement Continuous Integration/ Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines for various unique deployment environments. This role includes:
- Supporting cloud (e.g., AWS) toolsets in unclassified environments
- Configuring and maintaining multiple CI/CD environments at different classification levels, focusing on developer productivity, application performance, security monitoring, and alerting
- Liaising with corporate IT to ensure team infrastructure toolsets are configured, maintained, reliable, and in compliance with Department of Defense standards
- Coaching team members on DevOps best practices while continuously helping to improve processes.
This role will take advantage of STR’s flexible, hybrid environment – when the work does not require use of STR’s facilities, you are welcome to work remotely. You should expect to spend some portion of time every week (2-3 days) in STR’s or US Government facilities. You can expect to support software applications deployed on classified operational networks that can only be accessed at STR or government facilities.
Who You Are:
- Must be a U.S. citizen
- Active US Security Clearance with SCI Eligibility
- BS in Computer Science or related field with at least 5 years of work experience
- Experience with all relevant technologies including:
- CI/CD tools (Gitlab) and pipeline automation
- Cloud platforms (such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud), and automated provisioning tools (such as Ansible or Chef)
- Containerization technologies such as Docker and Podman
- Kubernetes management solutions such as EKS and Rancher
- Experience deploying, and monitoring Kubernetes clusters and pod configurations
- Basic knowledge of Linux System Administration
- Knowledge of Python and Linux Shell
- Knowledge of Cyber Security fundamentals
- Organized, detail-oriented, and ability to work both independently and collaboratively
- Demonstrated experience as an effective communicator to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Located in San Diego, CA, Denver, CO, Arlington, VA, or Boston, MA, or willing to relocate.
Even Better:
- Active Security Clearance at the Top Secret level
- Advanced Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field
- Experience in:
- Full web-service stack, including databases, logging, and monitoring
