DevOps / Security Engineer

DevOps / Security Engineer

Remote / Full-time / US Based / Eligible to obtain future Security Clearance

We are looking for a DevOps / Security Engineer who can build and maintain the infrastructure

and security operations. You will work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, CI/CD

automation, and security compliance — ensuring our TypeScript platform is continuously

deployed, monitored, and hardened to IL4/IL5 standards. This role is equal parts builder and

defender: you’ll ship infrastructure and pipelines while ensuring every layer meets the security

bar required for the mission.

What You’ll Do

• Build, manage, and optimize cloud infrastructure on AWS GovCloud (or Azure

Government) to meet IL4/IL5 hosting requirements.

• Own the CI/CD pipeline end-to-end — from code commit to production deployment —

using GitHub Actions with security gates at every stage.

• Implement infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or CDK) for repeatable,

auditable environment provisioning.

• Manage containerized deployments (Docker) with proper image scanning, signing, and

registry controls.

• Design and maintain staging, testing, and production environments with appropriate

network isolation.

Required Qualifications

• Active U.S. Secret clearance or ability to obtain (U.S. citizenship required).

• 3\+ years of experience in DevOps, cloud infrastructure, or security engineering roles.

• Hands-on experience with AWS (GovCloud preferred) or Azure Government cloud

environments.

• Strong proficiency with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code tooling.

• Working knowledge of DISA STIGs, NIST 800-53 controls, and the RMF process.

• Experience with PostgreSQL administration, backup, and hardening in production

environments.

• Familiarity with Linux system administration and network security fundamentals.

• Comfortable working in a TypeScript/Node.js application environment.
