Role Description The Integration and DevSecOps Engineer supports the integration of the Fangorn prototype into a cohesive, secure, and cloud-native system while helping build and maintain the underlying hybrid infrastructure. This role focuses on system integration, Kubernetes-based platforms, and DevSecOps practices, working closely with senior engineers, architects, and security stakeholders. The engineer will help implement and maintain the “plumbing” of the solution—network connectivity, system interfaces, CI/CD pipelines, and containerized workloads—ensuring infrastructure is automated, secure, and maintainable through code. This role is well-suited for an engineer with foundational experience who is ready to deepen hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, DevSecOps, and hybrid cloud environments. Qualifications - U.S. Citizenship required; ability to obtain a Secret clearance (active Secret preferred). - 3+ years of hands-on DevSecOps experience, including CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and security integration. - 3–5 years of experience in cloud engineering, DevOps, systems integration, or related technical roles. - Hands-on experience deploying and supporting Kubernetes workloads. - Experience with at least one cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or private cloud). - Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, or ARM). - Working knowledge of Linux systems and scripting (Bash, Python, or PowerShell). - Familiarity with networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs, routing, firewall concepts). - Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. Requirements - Support secure network connectivity between on-premise (mainframe) environments and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or private cloud). - Assist with configuration of VPCs/VNets, subnets, routing, VPNs, and security groups under guidance from senior engineers. - Help ensure reliable, secure data transfer between mainframe and cloud components. - Implement and maintain integration points between mainframe systems and cloud-based services. - Support API-based integrations, messaging systems (e.g., IBM MQ or cloud-native messaging), and scheduled data transfers. - Assist with data format transformations and integration troubleshooting (e.g., EBCDIC to ASCII). - Deploy, configure, and support Kubernetes-based workloads (EKS, AKS, OpenShift, or similar). - Manage containerized applications using Docker and Kubernetes primitives such as deployments, services, ingress, and namespaces. - Assist with Kubernetes troubleshooting, upgrades, and configuration changes. - Apply Kubernetes security best practices, including RBAC, secrets management, image scanning, and network policies. - Contribute to DevSecOps pipelines by integrating infrastructure provisioning, application deployment, and security controls into CI/CD workflows. - Maintain and enhance Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or Azure Resource Manager. - Implement and support security automation including vulnerability scanning, container image scanning, secrets management, and compliance checks. - Work with DevOps and Security leads to align deployments with DoD security requirements and STIG guidance. - Support deployment and configuration of middleware, databases, message queues, and supporting services. - Participate in integration and end-to-end testing across hybrid workflows. - Troubleshoot cross-system issues involving networking, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, or data integration. - Use logging and monitoring tools to assist in identifying and resolving system issues. - Support development, test, and prototype environments. - Monitor system health, performance, and resource usage. - Assist with backup, recovery, and basic cost-optimization activities. - Maintain documentation for infrastructure configurations, Kubernetes deployments, and integration workflows. - Contribute to operational runbooks and support guides. - Assist with knowledge transfer to sustainment or operations teams as the prototype matures. Benefits - Strong documentation and communication skills.
