  • Identify critical technical problems and develop advanced software updates and "fixes" for complex system architectures.
  • Manage large-scale infrastructure projects and processes from inception to completion.
  • Build and test sophisticated automation tools for infrastructure provisioning and maintenance.
  • Oversee and handle code deployments across all environments, maintaining configuration standards and system stability.
  • Monitor system metrics and develop data-driven strategies to improve operational efficiency.
  • Provide technical guidance and educate team members and coworkers on advanced development and operations practices.

Required Experience/Clearance

  • Active TS/SCI clearance with Polygraph.
  • Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) with 10+ years of experience OR a Master’s degree with 8+ years of experience.
  • Recognized expertise in DevOps engineering, specifically in designing and building automated deployment solutions.

  • Proven ability to work with considerable latitude in determining technical objectives and approaches.

Desired Experience

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
