Description
Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.
OUR MISSION
True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.
OUR VALUES
Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.
YOUR MISSION
As a Staff Mission Cloud Engineer, you will be a critical technical expert architecting and managing multi-cloud infrastructure across multiple platforms and classification levels in support of several in-flight, critical U.S. Government programs. You will work as part of the Mission Security Engineering team, partnering closely with industrial security and information systems security engineers to design, build, and deliver cloud infrastructure, tooling, and capabilities from the ground up.
This is a hands-on individual contributor role requiring deep expertise in AWS and Azure at Impact Levels 4, 5, and 6+. You will own cloud network architecture across classification boundaries, translating complex security and mission requirements into resilient, scalable, and compliant infrastructure. If you thrive on building in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where your work directly enables national security missions, this role is for you.
This position requires an active Secret clearance to start, with the ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI.
Responsibilities
Architect and build AWS and Azure cloud networks from the ground up across multiple classification levels, including IL-4, IL-5, and IL-6+ environments
Design and implement multi-cloud infrastructure spanning multiple platforms, classification domains, and program requirements
Partner with industrial security and information systems security engineers and engineering teams to ensure cloud infrastructure meets program security requirements and compliance standards
Build and maintain cloud infrastructure, tooling, and capabilities in direct support of multiple in-flight, critical USG programs
Design and implement cloud network architectures including VPCs, VNets, transit gateways, peering configurations, routing, and boundary protection controls
Implement and maintain identity and access management (IAM) frameworks, service account architectures, and least-privilege access models across cloud environments
Support cloud Provisional Authorization (PA) processes and inherited control models for classified cloud environments
Document cloud architectures, configurations, and security controls to support achievement and maintenance of Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Identify and remediate findings from STIGs, vulnerability scans, and SCA activities to maintain ATO posture across cloud platforms
Ensure compliance with NIST 800-53, CNSSI 1253, ICD 503, JSIG, and other applicable frameworks for National Security Systems (NSS) handling classified information up to TS/SCI
Stay current on emerging cloud security capabilities and advocate for their adoption across program environments
Required Qualifications
10+ years of hands-on experience in cloud engineering or infrastructure, with significant experience architecting and operating AWS and Azure environments at scale
Active Secret clearance required; must be able to obtain and maintain TS/SCI
DoD 8140 IAT Level III certification (CASP+, CISSP, CISA, or equivalent) required
Proven experience designing and deploying cloud infrastructure at IL-4, IL-5, and/or IL-6+ impact levels
Deep expertise architecting AWS and Azure networks from the ground up, inc
