• Experience with High / Moderate FedRAMP authorization levels and monthly monitoring programs (scanning, evaluating, patching, and reporting on environment vulnerabilities).
• Hands-on experience with Linux administration, basic network troubleshooting, and infrastructure as code and automation tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform).
• Coding experience (preferably Python) and expertise in container-based architectures (AWS ECS / Kubernetes).
• Knowledge of virtualization, cloud architecture and services, automated deployments, web security, and protocols (HTTP, SSL / TLS, DNS, SQL) and networking fundamentals.

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Experience with High / Moderate FedRAMP authorization levels and monthly monitoring programs (scanning, evaluating, patching, and reporting on environment vulnerabilities).
• Python coding experience.
