Senior DevOps Engineer
SGNL- Full Time
- Senior (5 to 8 years)
Candidates should possess 8+ years of experience in DevSecOps, systems engineering, or infrastructure software development, with architect-level expertise in designing and operating cloud-native platforms using AWS, Azure, or GCP. Strong proficiency in Golang or similar languages (e.g., Rust), particularly with infrastructure as code (Pulumi preferred), is required, alongside familiarity with compliance frameworks such as FedRAMP, DoD SRG, NIST 800-53, and the RMF/ATO process. Experience deploying systems in air-gapped or classified environments and building secure CI/CD pipelines are also necessary.
The Principal DevSecOps Engineer will architect and implement scalable, secure cloud infrastructure using Kubernetes and Pulumi, ensuring compliance with DoD and IC requirements, and support the security and operations of the 2F Suite across various environments. They will build and manage CI/CD pipelines integrating DevSecOps best practices, integrate and maintain SIEM and security tooling, design and debug microservices in Go, work cross-functionally to assess infrastructure needs and deliver on product roadmap milestones, document their work thoroughly, and collaborate directly with DoD/IC stakeholders. Furthermore, they will contribute to R&D efforts and act as a mentor, shaping internal DevSecOps strategy and infrastructure standards.
