Systems/Dev/DevOps Engineer

Our Partner is seeking a hybrid Systems Engineer / Dev Engineer / DevOps Engineer, blending infrastructure management, software development, and CI/CD automation to bridge the gap between building applications and running them reliably. This role combines the hardware/network stability focus of a Systems Engineer, the coding and feature mindset of a Dev Engineer, and the automation/pipeline focus of a DevOps Engineer. Design, build, and maintain cloud infrastructure, automate deployment pipelines, and work directly with software development teams to release code safely and quickly. Responsibilities

• Infrastructure & Systems Management: Provision, configure, and maintain cloud environments (AWS) and on-premises physical or virtual servers using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or Ansible
• CI/CD Pipeline Engineering: Build, optimize, and maintain Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines to automate application building, testing, and deployment using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions.
• Software & Scripting Development: Write scripts (Python, Bash, or PowerShell) and internal tools to automate manual operations, manage configuration files, and integrate disparate backend systems.
• Containerization & Orchestration: Package applications into lightweight containers using Docker and manage scalable deployments using Kubernetes
• Monitoring, Logging & Reliability: Instrument robust observability frameworks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog) to track system performance, set up real-time alerts, and perform root-cause analysis on production outages
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Act as a bridge between software developers and IT operations, helping engineers write reliable code, review pull requests, and design fault-tolerant architectures
• Security & Compliance: Enforce security best practices, manage secrets, scan container images for vulnerabilities, and control access management

Requirements

• TS/SCI FSP Clearance
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)
• Operating Systems: Deep troubleshooting and administration experience with Linux/Unix environments
• Programming & Scripting: Proficiency in at least one modern language (Python, Ruby, or Go) and shell scripting (Bash or PowerShell)
• Version Control: Strong fluency with Git and collaborative source control workflows
• Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS) and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible)
• Container Tools: Familiarity with Docker containerization and Kubernetes orchestration
• Mindset: Strong problem-solving skills, an automation-first attitude, and a collaborative spirit
