Tech Sur is seeking a Dev Sec Ops  Engineer to build the automated pipelines behind a federal customer's multi-cloud platform. This is a part-time (0.5 FTE, about 20 hours per week) role. You will develop CI/CD pipelines that provision infrastructure and deploy applications consistently across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud, with security testing built into every stage.

Working closely with cloud engineers, security specialists, and customer development and operations teams, you will make Infrastructure-as-Code the standard way environments are built and changed. You will also help the team ship faster without giving up control or compliance.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain multi-stage CI/CD pipelines (build, test, scan, deploy) for infrastructure and customer applications.
• Integrate security testing into pipelines: SAST (Sonar Qube, Checkmarx), software composition analysis (Snyk, Black Duck), DAST (OWASP ZAP), and container scanning (Trivy, Aqua), with gates that fail builds on high‑severity findings.
• Develop reusable Infrastructure-as-Code modules (Terraform, Bicep, Cloud Formation) and Ansible playbooks for configuration management.
• Implement Git Ops practices (e.g., Argo CD) and policy-as-code checks (OPA/Rego, Checkov) to prevent configuration and IaC drift.
• Set up blue‑green and canary deployment strategies with automated health checks and rollback.
• Use CSP-native Dev Ops services (AWS Code Pipeline/Code Deploy, Azure Dev Ops, GCP Cloud Build/Cloud Deploy, OCI Dev Ops) alongside third‑party tools.
• Integrate pipelines with Service Now to automate change requests and risk‑based approvals.
• Document pipeline patterns and coach development and operations teams on Dev Sec Ops  practices.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.
• At least 5 years of experience developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automating deployment processes.
• Hands‑on Infrastructure-as-Code experience with Terraform or an equivalent tool.
• Experience integrating automated security testing (SAST, SCA, DAST, or container scanning) into pipelines.
• Proficiency with Git and at least one CI/CD platform (Git Lab CI, Git Hub Actions, Azure Dev Ops, or Jenkins).
• Scripting skills in Python, Bash, or Power Shell.
• Ability to work effectively with development and operations teams.
• Ability to obtain and maintain the background investigation required by the federal customer.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with containers and Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, GKE, or OKE).
• Experience with Git Ops tools (Argo CD, Flux) and policy-as-code.
• Experience delivering pipelines in federal environments aligned to NIST SP 800‑53.
• Prior support of a civilian federal agency.
