About the role

About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to build a production deployment pipeline for mission-critical DoD software from the ground up.

As the DevSecOps Project Lead, you will own the end-to-end software delivery lifecycle—from code intake through secure, scalable production deployment. Your charter is simple but high-stakes: ensure that software can be deployed reliably, securely, and on mission timelines in DoD environments.

You will design and operate the DevSecOps pipeline, define the hosting architecture, and integrate security and compliance directly into delivery. This role spans both modern commercial DevOps practices and the realities of DoD deployment (IL-5 today with a path to IL-6), requiring you to make critical decisions across government networks, cloud environments, and hybrid architectures.

This is a senior role combining hands-on execution with system-level ownership. You will build key components directly while guiding the transition from an existing government-furnished environment to a scalable, long-term production system.

Key Responsibilities

Hosting Architecture & Production Environment

  • Design and scale hosting architecture in IL-5 environments with a path to IL-6
  • Evaluate and select deployment strategies across government networks, GovCloud, and hybrid platforms
