The combined organization operates as a multi-entity aerospace and defense technology and tech-enabled services and manufacturing enterprise positioned for scalable growth, operational excellence, and long-term value creation
Design and integrate software factory services spanning source control, CI/CD, artifact repositories, registries, security scanning, test automation, secrets, cloud infrastructure, and observability
Advise programs on factory selection and onboarding, including application architecture, access and identity, environment needs, interfaces, inherited and application-specific controls, release paths, and sustainment responsibilities
Lead technical integration of applications with established factories, including Platform One, ODIN, or DAF CloudWorks as applicable; resolve gaps between factory services and program delivery needs
Establish reusable CI/CD templates, infrastructure-as-code modules, container baselines, deployment patterns, and platform services that scale across application teams
Architect secure cloud and container environments, including networking, identity, secrets, storage, compute, Kubernetes, logging, and separation of environments
Embed automated testing, SAST/DAST/SCA, SBOMs, artifact provenance, vulnerability management, and evidence collection into delivery workflows in partnership with RMF/ATO stakeholders
Define application onboarding and self-service practices, documentation, templates, APIs, and support pathways that improve developer experience and reduce time to first deployment
Guide artifact promotion, configuration management, deployment, monitoring, incident response, and reliability practices across development, test, and production
Troubleshoot complex platform and toolchain issues, assess design tradeoffs, and implement changes that improve security, availability, performance, and maintainability
Mentor engineers and application teams, share architectural patterns and lessons learned, and coordinate technical decisions with customer and cybersecurity stakeholders
Measure platform adoption, onboarding friction, delivery performance, and operational health; use the results to prioritize improvements
Provide technical support to operational strategies aligned within your program and initiatives that optimize processes, enhance productivity, and ensure quality across all program functions
Ensure 100% of planned hours are worked and recorded
Identify and forward to your leadership any opportunities that could lead to growth within your work area
