The goal of this role is to bring Peckham to a best-in-class level on our security and infrastructure deployment standards for the line of business applications we develop or customize.

This is an entry-level position combining infrastructure, Dev Ops, and security engineering. It is well suited to a motivated engineer who wants to grow across all three disciplines with the support of senior staff. You will support Microsoft Azure and on-premises environments, contribute to CI/CD pipelines, and provide second-level support to the help desk as needed. This role requires strong documentation practices and effective communication across the organization.

• Mastery. Develop hands-on expertise in Infrastructure as Code (IaC), configuration management, and application security tooling. Build and maintain Terraform modules and Ansible playbooks that define and deploy Peckham’s infrastructure in a repeatable, version-controlled manner.
• Implement and maintain automated code scanning and security tooling (static analysis, dependency and vulnerability scanning, secrets detection) within source control and CI/CD pipelines for the line of business applications Peckham develops or customizes.
• Innovation. Research, evaluate, and recommend tools, patterns, and practices that raise Peckham’s security posture and infrastructure deployment standards to a best-in-class level. Contribute to the design of Peckham’s next generation infrastructure.
• Build, configure, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Azure Dev Ops, Git Hub Actions) that deploy applications consistently and safely across development, test, and production environments.
• Provision and support Microsoft Azure resources (compute, networking, identity, storage) and Windows and Linux servers using automation and IaC rather than manual configuration wherever practical.
• Ownership and caring. Take responsibility for the reliability and security of the environments and pipelines you build. Ensure backup, recovery, and redundancy protocols are defined, documented, and tested.
• Monitor infrastructure and application health, respond to alerts and security findings, remediate vulnerabilities promptly, and maintain composure under pressure from impacted business groups.
• Automate routine operational and deployment tasks using Power Shell, Python, or Bash.
• Communication. Document architecture, standards, runbooks, and procedures clearly. Communicate status, risks, and recommendations effectively to technical and non-technical stakeholders across the organization.
• Provide second-level support to the help desk for infrastructure, deployment, and security-related issues, ensuring seamless IT operations.
• Participate in small to mid-scale projects and follow change management procedures. Maintain all documentation regarding infrastructure, pipelines, and security…
