Job description

We have an outstanding Contract to Hire position for a Full-Stack Developer/DevSecOps Engineer Senior to join a leading Company. This position is fully remote.

Pay Rate: $80 - $85
**US Citizenship is required.**
**Candidate must possess an Active Top Secret Security Clearance with the ability to obtain Top Secret/SCI.**

We are seeking a Full-Stack Developer / DevSecOps Engineer Senior to join our team in delivering secure, scalable, cloud-native applications that support critical national toolsets and large-scale user bases. This role combines hands-on software engineering with DevSecOps principles to embed security, automation, and resilience throughout the development lifecycle. The ideal candidate thrives in a collaborative, Agile/Scrum environment, bringing expertise in modern full-stack development, containerized microservices, GitOps-driven CI/CD, and secure-by-design practices. You will contribute to building and sustaining high-performance systems in classified environments, leveraging tools aligned with the Enterprise DevSecOps Reference Design (including CNCF Kubernetes, hardened containers from Iron Bank, and zero-trust architectures).

Whether your strength lies in crafting clean, testable code across frontend and backend, optimizing deployment pipelines, or integrating security controls (shift-left security, vulnerability scanning, SBOMs), you will drive innovation while ensuring compliance with rigorous standards (e.g., RMF, continuous ATO reciprocity, STIGs). Candidates must excel at independent problem-solving, critical thinking, and clear communication-both oral and written-while collaborating across development, security, operations, and mission stakeholder teams.

Responsibilities:
  • Design, develop, maintain, and enhance full-stack web applications and microservices to support national-scale toolsets with high availability and large user bases.
  • Implement and manage secure CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and automated deployments in cloud-native Kubernetes environments.
  • Deploy and harden new systems, networks, and containerized workloads with embedded security practices.
  • Conduct data processing, post-processing, reduction, and analysis to support mission outcomes.
  • Apply Scrum/Agile framework principles in daily work, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, ceremonies, and continuous improvement.
  • Produce well-documented analysis reports, technical briefings, and artifacts for stakeholders.
  • Troubleshoot defects, collaborate closely with users/end-users to resolve issues, and deploy timely, secure fixes.
  • Contribute to all phases of the software development lifecycle in a highly collaborative, cross-functional Scrum team.
  • Assist senior engineers with complex assignments while mentoring juniors on best practices.
  • Ensure code is efficient, testable, maintainable, and adheres to secure coding standards (e.g., OWASP, hardening guidelines).

Basic Hiring Criteria:
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.
  • Minimum 10 years of professional experience in software development, DevSecOps, or related engineering roles.
  • Active Top Secret security clearance with SCI access (TS/SCI).
  • Must be a U.S. Citizen per government contractual requirements.

Desired Qualifications:
  • Strong backend development experience with languages such as Golang (preferred for cloud-native/DevSecOps tools), Node.js, C++, Python, or similar.
  • Proficiency in frontend technologies: React, TypeScript, JavaScript for building responsive, user-facing web applications.
  • Expertise in CI/CD tools (e.g., GitLab CI, Jenkins, Argo CD for GitOps, Argo Workflows for complex pipelines).
  • Hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes (CKA/CKAD certification a plus), including deployment, scaling, and management in DoD environments.
  • Knowledge of cloud security and multi-cloud platforms (AWS GovCloud, Azure DoD IL, GCP), including zero-trust models and compliance.
  • Container and runtime security practices (e.g., vulnerability scanning, policy enforcement with Kyverno/OPA, hardened images from Iron Bank).
  • Scripting and automation: Python, Bash, IaC tools (Terraform, Ansible).
  • Database experience: SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB); familiarity with observability backends (e.g., Prometheus, Loki).
  • API design and implementation: RESTful APIs, GraphQL, gRPC, where applicable.
  • Version control and collaboration: Git (GitLab/Repo One preferred).
  • Observability tools: Grafana (dashboards/visualization), Jaeger or Tempo (distributed tracing), Prometheus (metrics), EFK/PLG stacks (logging).
  • Solid Linux experience (system administration, troubleshooting, container hosts).
  • Deep understanding of microservices architecture, service meshes (e.g., Istio for zero-trust/mTLS), and modular, loosely coupled designs.
  • Proven ability to produce clean, efficient, testable code that meets technical and secure coding requirements.
  • Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams, contributing end-to-end from requirements to deployment in high-stakes, classified settings.
  • Fundamental knowledge of operating systems, networking, and programming paradigms to support platform-level troubleshooting and innovation.

Benefits offered to vary by the contract. Depending on your temporary assignment, benefits may include direct deposit, free career counseling services, 401(k), select paid holidays, short-term disability insurance, skills training, employee referral bonus, affordable medical coverage plan, and DailyPay (in some locations). For a full description of benefits available to you, be sure to talk with your recruiter.
