About Knox Knox runs the largest Federal managed cloud, building and operating secure cloud and AI environments that support the U.S. government’s most critical missions — from national security and public safety to essential public services. Our customers rely on Knox to deploy production systems that meet the highest standards for security, reliability, and compliance. Work at Knox is high-impact and purpose-driven. The problems we solve are high-stakes, the expectations are high, and the results are visible. Speed, rigor, and trust matter here - because the environments we secure cannot fail. Your contributions are visible, your expertise is relied upon, and the impact of your work is immediate and measurable. We operate at federal scale, securing some of the most sensitive government environments in the country - because the systems we build must perform without fail. THE ROLE The SecDevOps Engineer designs, automates, and maintains Knox’s secure cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines across AWS, Azure, and GCP within our FedRAMP-authorized, multi-tenant boundaries. Day-to-day, the work centers on Zero Trust access, continuous monitoring, cloud security posture, and observability — keeping secure, compliant, and repeatable operations running across federal cloud environments. The ideal candidate combines hands-on cloud architecture experience, automation expertise, and a deep security-operations mindset. This role bridges the gap between core cloud engineering and rigorous federal compliance, embedding security controls directly into the deployment fabric using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Policy-as-Code frameworks. ROLE FOCUS & TECHNICAL MATRIX Zero Trust & Identity - Zscaler (ZPA / PRA), HashiCorp Vault, Okta, Azure AD / Entra ID, AWS IAM Identity Center Infrastructure as Code - Terraform (Primary), Ansible, CloudFormation, GitOps (ArgoCD / Helm) Security & Compliance- FedRAMP (IL4 boundaries), NIST 800-53, Wiz, Qualys, CrowdStrike, OPA, HashiCorp Sentinel Observability & Ops- Grafana, Prometheus, CloudWatch, PagerDuty, ServiceNow (CAB / eCAB) KEY RESPONSIBILITIES ZERO TRUST & ACCESS MANAGEMENT ● Support and operate Zero Trust Network Access (Zscaler ZPA / PRA) architectures including app connectors, privileged remote access, and private application access boundaries. ● Manage privileged credentials, API tokens, and secrets lifecycle using HashiCorp Vault, establishing automated credential flows and programmatic rotation. ● Integrate and maintain federated identity providers (Okta, Azure AD / Entra ID, AWS IAM Identity Center) and actively support ongoing multi-cloud identity migrations. ● Enforce strict least-privilege access models and machine-to-machine credential rotation policies across all automation systems. CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE & SECURE AUTOMATION ● Build and manage multi-tenant infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform primary; Ansible and CloudFormation as needed). ● Automate end-to-end provisioning, configuration management, and environment deployment workflows via secure CI/CD and GitOps paradigms. ● Manage cloud networking, IAM topologies, and security group configurations tailored strictly to FedRAMP controls and Impact Level 4 (IL4) boundaries. CI/CD, POLICY-AS-CODE & CONTAINER SECURITY ● Develop and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines utilizing GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or Jenkins. ● Integrate Policy-as-Code frameworks (OPA, HashiCorp Sentinel, or Azure Policy) into pipeline gates to enforce organizational compliance before infrastructure provisioning. ● Embed automated static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and container vulnerability scans into active deployment workflows. ● Build, deploy, and troubleshoot containerized workloads within managed Kubernetes environments (EKS, AKS, GKE) using Helm, ArgoCD, or Kustomize.
