- Participate in the implementation of security hardening and compliance requirements for federal environments (e.g., FedRAMP), working alongside our security and compliance teams

- Strong Infrastructure-as-Code skills (Terraform; Terragrunt a plus) and experience with GitOps-driven deployment workflows
