Job Description
Lead the security transformation of submarine combat systems through innovative DevSecOps practices. As the DevSecOps Engineer, you’ll design and implement secure, automated delivery pipelines that fundamentally transform how tactical capabilities reach our warfighters at the speed of relevance.
You’ll architect the security frameworks and processes that bridge legacy submarine applications to modern containerized environments within the submarine ecosystem. Your expertise in secure CI/CD and container security will establish the foundation for continuous Authority to Operate (cATO) while ensuring compliance with the most stringent defense requirements.
A critical aspect of your role will be embedding security throughout the entire software lifecycle while focusing on software build optimizations. You’ll develop automated testing pipelines, security validation pipelines, implement policy-as-code frameworks, and establish the guardrails that enable development teams to deliver secure capabilities with unprecedented speed and confidence.
You’ll champion the adoption of DevSecOps culture across teams, fostering collaboration between development, security, and operations to create a seamless delivery model that directly enhances submarine combat readiness and effectiveness.
Join our team in Manassas, VA, with a flexible hybrid work arrangement. This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on national security while advancing your expertise in secure software delivery within classified defense environments.
