Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and sustain secure enterprise infrastructure across classified and multi-enclave environments, including virtualization, containers, storage, and core identity services.
- Manage the full lifecycle of virtual environments from golden image development through capacity planning and operational handoff.
- Develop automation and software solutions using modern tooling to build and operate hardened, scalable infrastructure.
- Support code reviews, integration testing, and agentic coding practices within established development lifecycles.
- Identify capability gaps, evaluate emerging technologies, and lead proof-of-concept efforts across areas such as self-healing infrastructure, intelligent threat detection, identity flows, and dynamic cost optimization.
- Contribute to roadmap development and technology investment recommendations that evolve customer designs and mindsets.
- Work alongside enterprise networking, cybersecurity, and adjacent program teams to ensure infrastructure solutions are integrated, compliant, and operationally sound.
