DevSecOps Engineer

About the Team

Maximus Technology and Consulting Services (TCS) operates at the intersection of advanced technology and critical national security. Our team is dedicated to securing the infrastructure that powers essential government operations, ensuring resilience, compliance, and continuous availability for high-stakes environments. We foster a culture of innovation where automation and rigorous security practices converge to protect sensitive data and systems.

About the Role

As a DevSecOps Engineer within our TCS division, you will serve as a pivotal force in hardening our security posture while driving operational efficiency. This role exists to bridge the gap between development, security, and operations, ensuring that security is embedded into every stage of the software and infrastructure lifecycle. You will not only manage incident response and vulnerability remediation but also architect the automated frameworks that prevent issues before they arise.

Your day-to-day involves a dynamic blend of strategic planning and hands-on execution. You will design and implement automated security testing tools, conduct penetration tests, and perform deep-dive root cause analysis on network and security incidents. Beyond technical troubleshooting, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams to replace manual processes with robust, script-driven solutions, maintaining comprehensive runbooks and updating security procedures to stay ahead of emerging threats. This position requires a unique blend of technical expertise and the ability to navigate complex compliance landscapes, particularly within USAF IT systems.

Hiring Process

Candidates selected for this role must possess an active Top Secret with SCI eligibility. The interview process is designed to assess both technical proficiency and cultural fit within our security-focused environment. Selected candidates will undergo a rigorous vetting process commensurate with the sensitivity of the work.
