We take an AI-first approach to improve defense readiness through software products that streamline and modernize logistics operations from factory to foxhole and result in better decisions and outcomes.We believe that you won't change the world by phoning it in and as such we work in-office in one of our core engineering locations: El Segundo, CA; Austin, TX, Washington DC, San Francisco, CAAbout the RoleThe Infrastructure team owns the platform that delivers Navigator to the warfighters who depend on it. Our charter spans Kubernetes clusters in commercial and government cloud, application streaming for thin-client users on classified networks, a unified artifact pipeline that signs and ships the same builds to every environment we operate, and air-gapped appliances at forward sites where Contested Logistics is a daily reality, not a slide.We're hiring an Infrastructure Engineer who builds security into the systems they operate rather than treating it as a separate workstream. You'll architect, build, and run the platform end to end — writing RFCs and PRDs, reviewing and writing production code alongside Product and Engineering teammates, and owning the outcome when it ships. The work cuts across cloud-native deployments, edge appliances, data platforms, and the application streaming layer that puts Navigator on classified environments. You'll partner with our Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) leads and mission owners on STIGs, CVE remediation, audit prep, and the controls work that lets us operate in environments such as IL5, IL6, and JWICS.Success means a platform that stays up under real operational load, ships trusted artifacts to every profile we run, and passes audits without fire drills.This position requires the ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance.What You'll DoBuild and Operate the PlatformDesign, develop, test, iterate, and deploy secure production systems across cloud-native and edge appliance deploymentsOwn end-to-end infrastructure outcomes for one or more critical programs or priority infrastructure initiativesHarden the artifact pipeline so the same signed builds run in commercial cloud, single-tenant high-side, and air-gapped appliance deploymentsRun production Kubernetes across commercial and government cloud — operators, networking, storage, and multi-cluster operations that hold up under operational loadKeep the platform reliable through proactive monitoring, logging, and alerting, and own the response when something breaksSecurity and Compliance as a Daily DisciplineEmbed application and infrastructure security into the systems you build — identity, network segmentation, secrets management, and CVE remediation as part of the work, not a phase at the endPartner with GRC and mission owners on STIG implementation, audit prep, and the controls work that keeps us operating in IL5, IL6, and JWICS environmentsMaintain an audit-ready posture between formal assessment cycles, so authorization is a steady state rather than a fire drillCollaborate Across DisciplinesEmbed with cross-functional teams and advise on infrastructure, security, and deployment best practices that hold up in productionWork closely with Product and Engineering on RFCs, PRDs, and production code — you contribute to the systems you operateContribute to engineering best practices: code reviews, documentation, and continuously improving CI/CD and DevSecOps workflows while keeping Developer Experience at the forefrontWhat We’re Looking ForPeople request you by name because you bias...
