  • Troubleshoot deployment failures, broken pipelines, infrastructure issues, and application integration problems.
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation, runbooks, ADRs, architecture standards, and operational procedures.
  • Participate in Tier 2 on-call rotations and support platform incidents.
  • Collaborate with application and engineering teams to establish DevOps and platform best practices.
  • Mentor junior engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing.

Qualifications:
  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including deployment, management, and troubleshooting of clusters and workloads.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Pulumi, or similar.
  • Strong experience with CI/CD, preferably GitLab CI or equivalent platforms.
  • Strong knowledge of Linux/Unix administration and command-line tools.
  • Experience with AWS cloud services, preferably EC2, EKS, IAM, S3, and VPC.
  • Experience with Docker, container image builds, and container registries.
  • Strong ability to work with YAML for Kubernetes manifests, CRDs, Helm charts, and pipeline configurations.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a remote environment.
  • Must be eligible for CUI access.
  • Possess or be able to obtain DoD 8570 IAT II certification, such as Security+ CE.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Active Secret security clearance.
