Professional Sterling, VA, US

Salary Range: $ To $ Annually

Summary:

The Dev Sec Ops  Engineer is part of a skilled IT team that will work independently and collectively with other engineers to identify and test potential enhancements and resolve technical issues with taking prototypes through User Acceptance Testing (UAT) into an air-gapped customer enclave.

Essential Functions:

• Perform software integration tasks, including systems analysis, requirements gathering, scripting, testing, and documentation. Engage directly with customer requirements sessions, and user acceptance testing, and turn their feedback into tracked issues and delivered fixes. Use source code control to track and safeguard changes and apply software updates.
• Design, develop, and maintain tools that conduct document ingestion, normalize and segment their structure, extract classification markings, score similarity, and index results into a search engine with document-level access control. Devise solutions with minimal prior documentation.
• Develop and maintain tools that provide content conversion, user and group mapping, and permission-preserving migration. Validate migrations end to end and at scale.
• Perform infrastructure management, including designing and implementing scalable deployments across multiple networks using Dev Sec Ops  practices. Package and deploy applications with Helm and Kubernetes, and deliver the same applications as container images for a Podman air-gap delivery path: offline dependency closures, hardened base images, SBOMs, image signing, and CVE remediation. Document infrastructure creation, management, and decommissioning procedures.
• Uphold the security posture of tools that handle classified data, fail-closed access control, mTLS and PKI-based identity, tamper-evident audit logging, and test suites.
• Additional duties as assigned.

Job Qualifications:

• Knowledge of containerization and container orchestration, including networking, using Docker, Podman, and Kubernetes.
• Experience delivering software into air-gapped or disconnected environments.

• Experience with a search engine such as Open Search or Elasticsearch, including index provisioning and role-based or document-level security.
• Linux system administration knowledge: command line, service management, and software configuration within virtual machine constraints.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Professional manner and a strong ethical code.
• Exceptional time management and ability to multitask.
• Collaborate across the organization on a variety of company contracts/projects, bringing your skills to new challenges and opportunities

• Experience with PKI, mTLS, step-ca, Keycloak, or OAuth2 proxies for per-user identity in Kubernetes.

• Familiarity with Python and Power Shell.
