Senior, DevSecOps Engineer

Remote - Occasional on-site at Fort Belvoir, VA

Who We Are:

Connected Logistics builds secure, mission-critical IT and logistics solutions for the U.S. Army and other federal stakeholders. Our team values integrity, excellence, teamwork, and professional courage delivering real impact for national security missions.

What is AIE and Why It Matters:

Accessions Information Environment (AIE) is the Army's enterprise recruiting and accession system. A cloud-based, Impact Level (IL)-4 Salesforce-powered platform built to replace multiple legacy recruiting systems. AIE streamlines lead generation, prospect tracking, applicant processing, enlistment paperwork, and onboarding for new soldiers, giving recruiters a modern, mobile-accessible, unified tool. Working on AIE means you'll be contributing directly to how the U.S. Army recruits, processes, and manages new soldiers.

What This Role Means for You:

As a Sr. DevSecOps Engineer for Connected Logistics, you will own the stability, integrity, and security of the program's multi-environment CI/CD pipeline and cloud infrastructure. You will work directly with the Technical Leadership and Development Team to ensure secure, compliant, audit-ready releases across IL-4 environments.

You will serve as the subject matter expert for Azure DevOps, deployment governance, environment configuration, cybersecurity remediation, and pipeline troubleshooting. This role is essential to enabling rapid, safe, and compliant delivery of mission-critical capabilities to the Army.

This role requires experience operating in secure, regulated environments with strict change control, disciplined documentation, and enterprise-grade system responsibility.

Core Responsibilities:

• Maintain and administer AIE CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps (ADO), ensuring secure, reliable, and compliant deployments across Salesforce Dev, Integration, Test, Staging, production.
• Troubleshoot deployment failures, metadata conflicts, configuration drift, and environmental issues across Salesforce and AWS-hosted components.
• Resolve AWS infrastructure issues impacting Salesforce or integrations, including logging, APIs, services, networking, and performance.
• Facilitate break-fix releases and urgent deployments without violating governance, traceability, or compliance requirements.
• Address cybersecurity findings by applying patches, completing STIG requirements, remediating ACAS/Nessus findings, and documenting all actions.
• Support SAST/DAST tooling (Checkmarx) and ensure vulnerabilities are validated, tracked, and remediated.
• Maintain environment parity, refresh schedules, and configuration governance across all Salesforce orgs and supporting AWS services.
• Collaborate with MuleSoft and integration teams to manage API gateway changes, environment connections, certificates, secrets, and secure token handling.
• Produce and maintain audit-ready documentation including deployment notes, configuration records, STIG checklists, remediation artifacts, and pipeline diagrams.
• Serve as the DevSecOps SME during sprint planning, reviews, and refinement, advising on deployment feasibility, sequencing, and technical risk.
• Ensure all DevSecOps work complies with DoD cybersecurity requirements, IL4 controls, and Connected Logistics quality and governance standards.

Experience & Background

• Minimum 10 years of DevSecOps or environment administration experience supporting enterprise systems.
• Prior experience operating within DoD, federal, IL4/IL5, or other regulated secure environments, including adherence to auditing and governance requirements.
• Strong experience administering Azure DevOps (Boards, Repos, Pipelines, variable groups, deployment sequencing, work item traceability).
• Hands-on experience supporting Salesforce deployments (metadata deployment patterns, SFDX/CLI, package troubleshooting).
• Experience troubleshooting AWS infrastructure, including logs, endpoints, authentication, integrations, and performance monitoring.
• Demonstrated ability to interpret and remediate cybersecurity findings (ACAS, Nessus, STIGs).
• Experience partnering with cross-functional teams collaborating with developers, testers, architects, MuleSoft, operations, and security to move controlled releases through gated environments.
• Strong understanding of CI/CD principles, Git-based version control, environment governance, and branching strategies.
• Ability to produce clear technical documentation and maintain compliance artifacts required for audits, ATO upkeep, and quality reporting.

Technical Skills

• Advanced CI/CD engineering using ADO Pipelines, including multi-stage deployments, secure configuration, artifact handling, and gated approvals.
• Deep understanding of Salesforce DevOps (SFDX/CLI, metadata management, dependency resolution, rollback strategy, multi-org deployment patterns).
• Strong Git proficiency with disciplined branching, pull requests, merge strategies, and code-quality gates.
• Hands-on AWS operations (logging, networking, IAM fundamentals, service monitoring, diagnosing infrastructure failures influencing Salesforce or integrations).
• Cybersecurity tooling expertise (Checkmarx, ACAS/Nessus, STIG interpretation and remediation workflows).
• Integration support proficiency (MuleSoft deployment coordination, secure connectivity, certificate & token management, API gateway changes, event/log monitoring).
• Environment governance discipline (sandbox refresh coordination, configuration integrity, naming standard enforcement, controlled deployment sequencing).
