Government DevOps Engineer - USA

About the role

HERE is seeking a Government focused DevOps Engineer to join our team! The primary responsibilities for this role will span CI/CD pipeline engineering and cloud operations, maintaining and improving our GitHub CI/CD pipelines, and supporting our AWS cloud infrastructure. In this role, you will grow your hands-on experience with real production build systems and cloud platforms- while having the opportunity to work on practical projects that directly impact both our development velocity and operational reliability. You will play a vital role in ensuring our infrastructure complies with federal standards, directly supporting the delivery of our secure browser environment to public sector clients. We're actively evolving toward a cloud-agnostic, multi-cloud architecture and migrating to Kubernetes for container orchestration. While current AWS and ECS experience is essential, having exposure to Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes will position you well for our infrastructure roadmap.

Responsibilities

• CI/CD Pipeline Development:
• Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines for multi-platform builds (Windows, macOS, Linux).
• Work with YAML configurations, pipeline stages, artifacts, and deployment workflows.
• Integrate security and vulnerability scanning tools directly into the CI/CD pipeline to support automated compliance validations (DevSecOps).
• Cloud Infrastructure Operations:
• Help maintain and improve AWS infrastructure including ECS/Fargate deployments, RDS databases, Route53 DNS, VPC networking, and IAM policies.
• Support multi-tenant, multi-region, and highly isolated or public-sector specific cloud architectures (e.g., AWS GovCloud deployments).
• Container & Deployment Management:
• Work with Docker containers, ECS task definitions, and ECR registries.
• Deploy and manage containerized Node.js applications in production environments.
• Assist in the implementation of hardened container base-images aligned with federal or highly-regulated industry security benchmarks.
• Release Management:
• Help manage release processes including version promotion, release channels (canary, beta, stable), and automated deployment to staging and production environments.
• Database Operations:
• Support PostgreSQL on AWS RDS-backups, SSH tunneling through bastion hosts, read-only user management, and database configuration for multi-tenant environments.
• Automation & Scripting:
• Write and maintain automation scripts in Bash, PowerShell, Python, and Node.js.
• Build tools to improve infrastructure reliability and developer experience.
• Internal Tools Support:
• Help maintain web-based DevOps tools built with Express.js, React, and TypeScript-tools for cloud settings management, tenant provisioning, and deployment monitoring.

Requirements

• Ideally 2 to 4 years of experience with the following core requirements:
• GitLab CI/CD: Experience with GitLab CI/CD pipelines-YAML configuration, stages, jobs, artifacts, rules, dependencies.
• Understanding of CI/CD best practices and pipeline optimization.
• AWS Cloud Fundamentals: Production level experience with core AWS services-EC2, ECS/Fargate, RDS, Route53, VPC, IAM, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch. Comfortable navigating the AWS Console and CLI.
• Multi-Platform Scripting: Solid scripting skills in Bash (Linux) and PowerShell (Windows). Ability to write maintainable automation scripts for both platforms.
• Containerization: Hands-on Docker experience-building images, writi
