The Opportunity:
Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud,” but not everyone knows how. As a cloud data engineer, you know how to create a cloud-based technical architecture that meets client needs and takes advantage of cloud capabilities. We need you to help us develop cloud-based solutions for some of the Intelligence Communities toughest problems.
On our team, you’ll help to guide a multi-disciplinary team of data engineers, developers, and data consumers in a fast-paced, Agile environment. This is an opportunity to use the latest cloud technologies as you look for ways to improve your client’s environment using current cloud capabilities. Using your technical knowledge, you’ll work to deploy and develop pipelines and platforms that organize and make disparate data meaningful.
You’ll recommend tools and solutions based on your research of the current environment and knowledge of various on-premise, cloud-based, and hybrid resources. You’ll learn to help the client overcome their most difficult challenges in the cloud as part of a team. Additionally, you’ll gain skills in areas like implementing data engineering activities on some of the most mission-driven projects in the industry while developing critical systems for the Intelligence Community.
