• Design, deploy, and maintain Splunk AIOps solutions across classified and unclassified environments to provide real-time operational visibility and situational awareness.
• Normalize and correlate network performance and fault telemetry from SolarWinds with server and application logs to deliver a comprehensive view of enterprise health.
• Develop and deploy machine learning models using Splunk MLTK to detect anomalous activity, identify potential cyber threats, and predict infrastructure degradation.
• Engineer secure telemetry ingestion pipelines supporting cross-domain solutions and tactical edge devices.
• Utilize Splunk ITSI to correlate multi-source events, reduce alert fatigue, and prioritize mission-impacting incidents.
• Collaborate with cybersecurity operations teams to integrate AIOps insights into defensive cyber operations and incident response activities.
• Ensure observability platforms comply with applicable STIGs and IL5/IL6 security requirements while maintaining detailed architectural and compliance documentation.
• Stay current with emerging AIOps technologies and capabilities relevant to federal, defense, and intelligence community mission systems.

• 3+ years of experience implementing AIOps workflows and integrating enterprise ITSM platforms such as ServiceNow for automated remediation and root cause analysis.
• Demonstrated experience building, testing, and tuning supervised and unsupervised machine learning models using Splunk MLTK.
• Advanced scripting and automation skills, including development of custom search commands, API integrations, and automated remediation workflows using Python or similar languages.
• Experience leading technical working groups and coordinating efforts across infrastructure, operations, and development teams.
• Prior experience supporting mission-critical systems within DoD or federal operations environments, including NOC/SOC operations.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present technical solutions, architectures, and analyses to leadership and governance boards.
• Experience aggregating and correlating telemetry across enterprise platforms, including SolarWinds, ServiceNow, and VMware vCenter.

• Splunk Enterprise Certified Architect and/or Splunk ITSI Certified Administrator certification.
