Job description

This isn’t a watch-and-wait monitoring seat. Our client needs engineers who can read a Kibana query at 3am, know the difference between a blip and a breach, and act on it, on a FedRAMP-authorised cloud platform that genuinely can’t afford downtime. If you’re a couple of years into SRE or cloud support and want your next role to open doors into FedRAMP and GovCloud work, this is a strong place to build that experience.

Requirements

· Real-time monitoring and first-response triage. Across AWS (Commercial/GovCloud) and EKS infrastructure.

· Log-level root cause investigation. In Kibana and Elasticsearch, you’ll actually dig, not just escalate.

· CVE remediation and STIG hardening. On your patch, within FedRAMP SLA windows.

· Deployment execution and troubleshooting. Through GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD, and Argo Workflows.

Requirements

· 3+ years in SRE, DevOps, systems administration, or cloud support.

· Solid Linux administration (RHEL, Amazon Linux, Ubuntu) and comfort with bash/Python scripting.

· Working knowledge of Kubernetes/EKS, AWS core services, and L4/L7 load balancing troubleshooting.

· Prometheus, Grafana, and ChatOps-via-Slack experience.

· US citizenship and US-soil , with genuine availability for overnight/weekend rotational shifts. This is non-negotiable.

Benefits & conditions

Bay Area, offices in San Jose · Hybrid · 24/7 FedRAMP Operations · Rotational Shift · Initial Contract till March 27., · A defined engagement. Mid-September through end of March, with clear shift expectations up front.

· Competitive W2 hourly rate. $70-$90/hr, with overnight/weekend shift premium built in, DOE.
