Job Description
• Build and maintain deployment automation and CI/CD pipelines that reliably ship software across 20+ federal environments in parallel.
• Own the operational health of all production deployments — monitoring, alerting, incident response, and post-mortems.
• Design infrastructure that accounts for the reality of federal environments: air-gapped networks, strict compliance requirements, variable network topologies, and limited access windows.
• Build tooling that gives the engineering team visibility into the state of every deployment without requiring manual inspection.
• Automate everything that can be automated. We cannot scale to hundreds of environments with manual processes.
• Work with the product engineering team to ensure new features are deployable across all environments without environment-specific hacks.
• Manage and improve cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP) and on-prem deployments depending on customer requirements.
• Participate in on-call rotations for production environments.
Job Requirements
- 4+ years of experience in infrastructure engineering, SRE, DevOps, or platform engineering
- Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar) and configuration management (Ansible, Salt, or similar)
- Deep Linux systems knowledge — you should be comfortable debugging at the OS level, not just the application level
- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines for complex multi-environment deployments
- Proficiency with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS preferred)
- Comfortable working in highly constrained or regulated environments where you can't just spin up whatever you want
- Willingness to work extended hours when production issues demand it — we are a seed-stage startup with federal customers who do not tolerate downtime
- Experience deploying software into federal, DoD, or IC environments
- Familiarity with FedRAMP, STIG compliance, or ATO processes
- Experience with air-gapped or disconnected network deployments
- Ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance
- Experience operating infrastructure at scale across many isolated environments simultaneously
- Familiarity with monitoring and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, or similar)
