Job description

  • Serve as a Software Engineer Level 3, providing Kubernetes, DevSecOps, and software supply chain security support to the ZT ICAM team, DISA, and other Department of War customers.
  • Develop and sustain the integrated Kubernetes deployment package, including configurable single- and multi-namespace operations.
  • Automate secure build, test, scanning, signing, packaging, and release processes.
  • Deploy and integrate distributed policy administration, decision, attribute, and enforcement components with secure service communication, workload identity, synchronization, observability, and resilient operation across enterprise, multi-site, tactical, and disconnected environments.
  • Work with customer teams to assess environments, tailor configurations, troubleshoot deployments, and produce clear deployment and support documentation.

Requirements

Required:

  • TS/SCI clearance with polygraph.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related discipline; four additional years of experience may substitute for the degree.
  • Eight or more years of software engineering experience, including three years in SIGINT, Information Assurance, or Information Technology.
  • Experience engineering, securing, upgrading, and troubleshooting production Kubernetes or RKE2 environments.
  • Experience with namespaces, workloads, services, ingress, ConfigMaps, Secrets, RBAC, network policies, persistent storage, DNS, and service discovery.
  • Experience developing configurable deployments with Helm, Kustomize, values files, or comparable configuration-management tools, and packaging Docker or OCI images.
  • Experience with Linux, scripting, Git, CI/CD, automated testing, security scanning, artifact publication, and coordinated release delivery.
  • Experience implementing software supply chain controls, including SBOMs, vulnerability management, artifact signing, provenance, and remediation tracking.
  • Experience leading technical reviews, supporting customer deployment and troubleshooting, writing technical documentation, and mentoring engineers in an Agile environment.

Desired:

  • Experience with configurable single- and multi-namespace deployments, minimal test environments, upgrades, rollback, scaling, and high availability.
  • Experience deploying distributed policy, attribute, decision, and enforcement services using workload identity, mutual TLS, certificate management, secrets management, and least privilege.
  • Experience supporting policy and attribute synchronization, local decision availability, observability, recovery, and degraded operation across multi-site or disconnected environments.
  • Experience with Rancher, Kubernetes operators, Harbor or comparable registries, admission controls, image promotion, and container hardening.
  • Knowledge of Zero Trust, ICAM, Attribute-Based Access Control, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, LDAP, PKI, and service-to-service authorization.
  • Experience supporting DISA or other DoW customers and producing deployment guides, reference configurations, application onboarding criteria, and release documentation using Jira and Confluence.
