Cloud Engineer, Senior
The Challenge:
Everyone is trying to “harness the power of the cloud,” but not everyone knows how. As a cloud computing application architect, you know how to build a cloud-based technical architecture that meets client needs and takes advantage of cloud capabilities. What if you could use your cloud architecture skills to improve the intelligence community (IC)? We need you, an experienced cloud engineer, to help us design and architect the most efficient solutions that automate and shorten the time it takes to get new capabilities from development to production to support mission critical operations.
As a cloud engineer on our team, you’ll use your development experience to streamline our software development life cycle from development to production by leveraging the latest cloud native managed services. You’ll lead efforts to incorporate open-source tools, automation, and infrastructure as code using Agile methodologies to develop enterprise solutions that facilitate and reduce the barrier of getting code securely from concept into production. As a cloud engineer, you’ll work with elite teams to implement continuous integration and deployment mechanisms that help reduce the speed to mission of critical applications and services to our nation’s intelligence systems. This is an opportunity to broaden your skill set into areas like Agile development, cloud-based development, containerization, and serverless while developing software that will improve national security.
