About the role

Cloud DevSecOps Engineer
 

Make an Impact Where It Matters Most

At Intelliforce, we build secure, resilient cloud environments that help mission teams move faster and operate with confidence. In this role, you will design, deploy, and secure the infrastructure behind mission awareness and automated workflows. This is a strong fit for an engineer who thinks like a developer, builds like an architect, and knows the job is not done until the software runs reliably, securely, and at scale.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

This role gives you real ownership across cloud architecture, automation, security, and delivery. You will write Python to connect systems, build and manage infrastructure in AWS or Azure, embed security into the pipeline, and work directly with users and developers to solve real infrastructure problems. The work is hands-on, practical, and tied to mission outcomes, not abstract platform work for its own sake.

At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your judgment matters. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong engineering gets noticed. Add in long-term stability, strong benefits, and a people-first culture, and this becomes more than another DevSecOps role. It is a chance to build secure cloud foundations that mission teams rely on every day.

Here’s What Your Day-to-Day Could Include

• Write Python automation to connect systems and eliminate repetitive manual work
• Design, build, and maintain secure, scalable infrastructure in AWS and or Azure
• Manage deployments and configuration through Infrastructure as Code

• Work directly with users and developers to understand infrastructure needs and turn them into practical solutions
• Support resilient cloud environments that enable mission awareness and automated workflows

• Deep experience with AWS and or Azure
• Strong proficiency with Infrastructure as Code tools, specifically Terraform or Ansible
• Solid system administration and Linux experience
