Headquartered in Tysons, Virginia, LMI is committed to delivering impactful results that strengthen missions and drive lasting value.

LMI is seeking a skilled Infrastructure Engineer to design, implement, automate, operate, and sustain the foundational computing platforms supporting enterprise applications, data, and mission services across a network of new and existing secure facilities. The Infrastructure Engineer will ensure that physical, virtual, and cloud-based environments remain reliable, secure, scalable, recoverable, and supportable. This is an execution-oriented role supporting a fast-paced, milestone-driven prototype effort with near-term deliverable commitments.

Success requires strong compute, storage, operating-system, virtualization, platform, automation, and lifecycle-management fundamentals rather than expertise limited to a specific vendor.

Primary

Duties Include:

• Enumerate and document the infrastructure baseline across geographically dispersed sites, including compute, storage, operating systems, virtualization, cloud services, backup, recovery, and platform dependencies.

• Design current-state, transition-state, and target-state infrastructure for secure facilities, data centers, cloud environments, and operational sites.

• Engineer physical, virtual, containerized, and cloud-based platforms based on mission, performance, availability, security, and recovery requirements.

• Establish platform standards, configuration baselines, reusable patterns, implementation procedures, and lifecycle roadmaps.

• Implement secure configurations, patching, hardening, encryption, access controls, and privileged-administration practices in coordination with cybersecurity personnel.

• Develop and validate backup, restoration, disaster-recovery, and continuity procedures for mission-critical services and data.

• Monitor infrastructure health, performance, capacity, utilization, configuration compliance, and emerging lifecycle constraints.

• Diagnose complex infrastructure issues involving compute, memory, storage, operating systems, virtualization, cloud services, and supporting dependencies.

• Automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration, patching, testing, monitoring, scaling, backup, recovery, and compliance using repeatable infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management practices.

FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS

• Compute, storage, operating systems, virtualization, containers, and cloud infrastructure.

• Platform architecture, availability, scalability, performance, and capacity engineering.

• Backup, restoration, disaster recovery, and continuity of operations.

• Identity, authentication, authorization, encryption, and privileged-access fundamentals.

• Secure configuration, patch management, system hardening, and vulnerability remediation.

• Infrastructure monitoring, telemetry, logging, and performance analysis.

• Network, distributed-system, application-hosting, and data-platform fundamentals.

• Automation, scripting, APIs, configuration management, infrastructure as code, and version control.

• Configuration, change, release, incident, problem, capacity, and technology-lifecycle management.

Location: This position is based in the Washington, DC metro area, with travel to program locations.

Travel: This position requires approximately 25-50% travel to support activities across multiple program locations.

Required:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field.

• 8+ years of experience designing, implementing, operating, or sustaining enterprise infrastructure, including in classified environments.

• Strong understanding of compute, storage, operating systems, virtualization, cloud, backup, recovery, and platform-security principles.

• Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues across multiple technical domains.

• Experience engineering…
