• Write and maintain Python tooling and automation for infrastructure and operational workflows
• Serve as the senior technical escalation point for the team and the broader program on infrastructure, DevOps, and security question

  • Experience building and maintaining GitLab CI/CD pipelines
  • Hands-on experience with ArgoCD or comparable GitOps tooling

  • Demonstrated ability to operate as the senior/primary technical resource for a small team
  • U.S. citizenship and eligibility to obtain/maintain a Top Secret clearance
  
  
  
  Desired:
