This role is centered on DevSecOps and site reliability engineering, with a strong emphasis on deployment automation, operational stability, and system resilience across AWS GovCloud and AWS C2E environments. You will be responsible for continuously improving the reliability and operability of Quindar's platform in production, ensuring systems are observable, fault-tolerant, and require minimal manual intervention. Your work will directly impact mission success by improving system uptime, deployment velocity, and operational confidence in constrained and classified environments. A key focus of this role is building and evolving automated deployment pipelines, hardened runtime environments, and repeatable infrastructure patterns that support secure and scalable operations in regulated environments. You will also support and improve Quindar deployments to air-gapped networks, driving consistency, reliability, and performance across all environments. As the organization grows, you will help define and implement best practices for availability, latency, incident response, and service-level objectives (SLOs). This role includes participation in incident response and a 24/7 on-call rotation, with a strong mandate to eliminate toil through automation and continuously improve system reliability. You will collaborate closely with frontend, backend, and platform engineers to ensure systems meet performance, reliability, and mission assurance requirements. ## Related Videos - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Modern DevOps for IoT Devices and More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1805-wearedevelopers-live-modern-devops-for-iot-devices-and-more) - [SRE Methods In an Agency Environment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/348-sre-methods-in-an-agency-environment) - [Enabling automated 1-click customer deployments with built-in quality and security](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/83-enabling-automated-1-click-customer-deployments-with-built-in-quality-and-security) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs)
