Agile Defense is hiring a DevSecOps Engineer

Agile Defense is hiring a DevSecOps Engineer to join a specialized Agile Pod dedicated to building and sustaining a secure, automated software delivery factory. In this role, you will engineer a modern, end-to-end toolchain—encompassing CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and Cloud Development Environments (CDE)—tailored for mission-critical systems requiring an Authority to Operate (ATO). You will bridge high-level architecture with hands-on implementation, focusing on 'Security as Code' within restricted and air-gapped environments.

What You'll Do

  • Deploy and configure enterprise-grade software delivery platforms, automated infrastructure tools, and centralized development environments across diverse hosting models.
  • Implement hardened installations, including SSO/IAM integration, RBAC, and strict segregation of duties.
  • Manage secrets and encryption using enterprise tools within highly regulated network boundaries.
  • Utilize low-code or automated platforms to design and generate production-ready Infrastructure as Code.
  • Build and maintain standardized pipeline foundations, including 'Golden Templates' and policy guardrails that automate security approvals.
  • Orchestrate secure, scalable developer workspaces to ensure environment consistency for both human developers and AI coding agents.
  • Translate technical configurations into NIST 800-53/FedRAMP evidence to accelerate security assessments.
  • Provide post-implementation support, including platform patching, upgrade execution, and audit log health checks.
  • Troubleshoot complex toolchain integration issues across the SDLC.

What We're Looking For

  • 3–5 years in DevSecOps, SRE, or Cloud Engineering.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Secret Clearance.
  • Proven experience working in restricted, air-gapped, or regulated environments.
  • Strong proficiency in Terraform or OpenTofu.
  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes.
  • Deep understanding of TLS, network proxies, and 'evidence-friendly' telemetry.

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience with enterprise CI/CD orchestration platforms.
  • Experience with Cloud Development Environments (CDEs) or remote workspace orchestration.
  • Experience generating documentation for RMF or ATO packages.

Technical Stack

  • Terraform
  • OpenTofu
  • Kubernetes
  • HashiCorp Vault
  • HSM
  • KMS

Team & Environment
