Availability: Immediately

DevOps engineer with 6+ years of hands-on experience across federal and enterprise environments, with a software testing background before that. Builds and runs CI/CD pipelines in Jenkins and GitHub Actions and makes them better along the way.

Primary DevOps owner for a mission-critical federal application, has mentored junior engineers, and is ready to own a pipeline build and help a team grow its DevOps practices.

Builds and maintains automated build, test, security, and deployment pipelines across Dev, Test, and Prod.
Automated a manual SonarQube security scan into the build and added Nexus so tested releases can't change mid-flight.
Created a reusable pipeline template so new applications don't start from zero.
Automates AWS infrastructure with Terraform and Ansible, and supports containerized apps on Kubernetes and EKS.
Go-to person for restoring a critical Java/Tomcat production app after hours.
