Across air, land, sea, space, and cyber, we develop and deliver the technologies of tomorrow, today.
Our customers depend on us to solve complex problems that directly support national security and mission success. Our work is guided by a clear purpose: We Protect Those Who Protect Us®.Role Overview
The Platform Engineering organization operates the Virtual Cloud Computing Center, or VC3, a foundational engineering capability across Electronic Systems.
VC3 is a secure, multi-region engineering development platform that delivers Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, and Software as a Service products that enable engineering teams to develop, integrate, test, and deliver modernized workloads across unclassified, controlled, and classified environments.
Platform Engineering is seeking a Deputy Director of Platform Engineering to provide technical, operational, and organizational leadership for VC3 and its supporting products. Reporting to the Director of Platform Engineering, the Deputy Director will translate platform strategy into executable architectures, product roadmaps, operational priorities, and measurable engineering outcomes.
The Deputy Director will lead the day-to-day integration of Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps Engineering, IT Operations, Security Engineering, cybersecurity, infrastructure engineering, and platform product teams. The successful candidate must be comfortable operating in both executive-level discussions and detailed technical engagements.
This is not solely a program-management position. The Deputy Director must have the technical judgment to guide engineering decisions, evaluate risk, lead through significant operational events, and ensure VC3 continues to evolve as a secure, reliable, scalable, and product-oriented platform.
This position will be performed in a hybrid work format, with time split between onsite and remote work.Specific Job Responsibilities
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Serve as the principal deputy to the Director of Platform Engineering and represent the organization in technical, operational, investment, and governance forums.
• Lead the integrated execution of Platform Engineering priorities across engineering, operations, and security disciplines.
• Translate business and platform strategy into prioritized roadmaps, investment plans, organizational goals, and measurable outcomes.
• Provide leadership and governance for the architecture, delivery, operation, security, resilience, and lifecycle management of VC3 products.
• Advance VC3 as a product-oriented engineering platform by improving self-service, standardization, reliability, user experience, and adoption.
• Lead the VC3 initiative portfolio, including priorities, resources, budgets, schedules, dependencies, risks, and expected business value.
• Build strong partnerships with engineering programs, business areas, SecureIT, facilities, finance, supply chain, and enterprise technology organizations.
• Lead, develop, and retain engineering managers, technical leaders, architects, and individual contributors while promoting a culture of ownership, collaboration, and technical excellence.

Technical Depth Expectations
The Deputy Director must possess sufficient technical depth to assess architectures, challenge assumptions, identify risk, and guide decisions across the Platform Engineering portfolio.
The successful candidate should demonstrate strong expertise in several of the following areas:

• Private, hybrid, and public-cloud architecture, including virtualization and multi-region environments.
• Platform Engineering, internal developer platforms, service catalogs, self-service, golden paths, and platform-as-a-product practices.
• Kubernetes, container platforms, workload isolation, networking, storage, security, and lifecycle management.
• Infrastructure as Code, GitOps, policy as code, APIs, automated provisioning, testing, and remediation.
• Site Reliability Engineering, including SLOs, incident management, resilience, disaster recovery, capacity planning, and operational readiness.
• Observability, including metrics, logging, tracing, alerting, dashboards, and operational telemetry.
• DevSecOps, CI/CD, artifact management, software factories, and secure developer workflows.
• Zero Trust, identity, vulnerability management, continuous compliance, RMF, NIST SP 800-171, and CMMC.
• Enterprise compute, storage, networking, identity, backup, and geographically distributed infrastructure.
• Advanced engineering workloads such as HPC, GPU computing, AI/ML platforms, SLURM, simulation, and digital engineering.
• Architecture governance, technical reviews, trade studies, lifecycle planning, and risk-based decision-making.
• Cost, utilization, capacity, license optimization, and infrastructure investment planning.
