About The Position

Omitron is seeking a DevOps Engineer to support the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of software development pipelines and infrastructure for Cross Domain Solution (CDS) data transformation within the CROWN program in Colorado Springs, CO. In this role, you will work closely with software engineers, system engineers, and test teams to build and maintain pipelines, environments, and automation that enable reliable delivery of mission-critical data processing systems. You will support CI/CD pipelines, environment orchestration, and deployment workflows that ensure correctness, traceability, and repeatability across development, integration, and operational environments. These systems require a high degree of reliability and consistency due to their role in secure data exchange across mission systems. This position supports a flexible work environment. Remote work may be considered for highly qualified candidates based on program needs. Otherwise, this role operates in a hybrid model with periodic in-office presence in Colorado Springs to support integration, testing, and collaboration activities.
