DevSecOps Engineer

Description

The ISA UAS division of Lockheed Martin’s Advanced Development Programs (Skunk Works) is home to world‑class Dev Sec Ops  engineering talent and continues an 80‑year legacy of pioneering advanced aircraft. As part of the Advanced Development Programs (ADP) Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Functional Domain, our team leads the implementation of Dev Sec Ops  practices that enable secure, reliable, and modern software delivery across cutting‑edge UAS platforms.

You will design and implement secure, scalable Azure cloud platforms for mission‑critical systems. You’ll define cloud architecture patterns, guide infrastructure decisions, and ensure solutions meet security, compliance, and program requirements. You’ll partner with Cloud Infrastructure, Software Engineering, and Security teams to build cloud‑native architectures and align CI/CD pipelines with deployment strategies. While cloud‑focused, you’ll stay hands‑on with Git Lab CI/CD to support automation and integration across Azure services.

You’ll provide technical leadership by shaping IaC strategies, establishing reusable patterns, and enabling secure, repeatable deployments. You’ll also strengthen monitoring and observability by applying logs and metrics to improve reliability, security, and operational visibility.

As a Staff Dev Sec Ops  Engineer, you will operate as a technical authority in cloud and Dev Sec Ops  engineering, shaping how Azure platforms are designed, deployed, and secured across programs. You will work at the intersection of cloud architecture, automation, and security, influencing technical decisions that impact multiple teams and systems. You will collaborate with senior engineers, architects, and security leaders across the organization, helping define best practices while staying hands‑on with modern cloud tooling.

This role offers the opportunity to drive platform evolution, mentor engineers, and contribute to the long‑term technical direction of cloud and Dev Sec Ops  capabilities supporting current and next‑generation systems.
