  • Requirements Translation: Work closely with the IT Program Manager and Sponsor stakeholders to accurately and efficiently translate complex operational requirements into robust, scalable technical solutions.
  • Continuous Operations: Continuously improve system reliability, operational monitoring, and automation capabilities, utilizing IT operational status tools such as Splunk dashboards or Elastic Search for situational awareness.

  • Security Clearance: Active TS/SCI with Polygraph is required.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Computer Engineering, or Information Systems AND 3+ years of combined experience in IT systems administration, IT system/software development and integration, IT system/software testing, Cybersecurity Compliance, IT system troubleshooting, and incident response OR High School Diploma AND 5+ years of combined experience in IT system/software testing, cybersecurity compliance, IT system troubleshooting, and incident response.
  • Sponsor System Administration: 2+ years of experience in system administration of Sponsor Systems.
  • IC Development: 3+ years of experience in the design, development, and deployment of applications on classified IC systems.
  • Cloud Expertise: 4+ years of combined experience in the Sponsor’s Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment (C2S or C2E), including cloud systems administration, containerization, cloud environment management, and compliance assessments.
  • SecDevOps: Expertise with SecDevOps tools, including Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), code repositories, and testing suites.
  • Technical Stack: Extensive experience with object-oriented programming languages, designing and administering relational databases, NoSQL data solutions, IT system/software testing, and configuration management practices.
  • Monitoring & Logs: Experience utilizing IT operational status tools (e.g., AWS monitoring) and implementing situational awareness insights using monitoring and logs, such as in Splunk dashboard or Elastic Search.
  • Certification: Certified in AWS or equivalent cloud technology.
  • Troubleshooting: Proven experience providing troubleshooting support for complex IT systems within the IC environment.

Desired Experience

  • Agile Management: Experience with Agile requirements management and sprint planning for technical IT development teams.
  • Advanced Degree: Master’s Degree in any of the above-listed technical disciplines.
  • Security Certification: Hold a Security+, Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), or equivalent security certification.
