Quantum Sky engineers solutions across cybersecurity, networks, software, and quantum technologies for contested, machine-speed missions. The Cybersecurity DevSecOps Engineer will design, automate, secure, and operate cybersecurity infrastructure supporting SOC operations while developing cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, software, and AI-enabled engineering workflows.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, deploy, and operate cybersecurity infrastructure supporting SOC operations
• Apply DevSecOps principles to security infrastructure, software, and operational workflows
• Build and maintain secure infrastructure-as-code using technologies such as Terraform and Ansible
• Design, implement, and maintain GitOps and CI/CD pipelines supporting cybersecurity infrastructure and applications
• Architect and operate secure cloud environments across AWS, GCP, and/or Microsoft Azure
• Develop automation that improves SOC analyst workflows, detection engineering, incident response, infrastructure management, and operational efficiency
• Build and integrate software, APIs, scripts, and automation supporting cybersecurity missions
• Leverage modern AI and agentic development tools to accelerate engineering, automation, analysis, and deployment workflows
• Identify opportunities to apply AI-enabled tooling to SOC operations and cybersecurity engineering
• Implement security controls throughout the software and infrastructure development lifecycle
• Partner with SOC analysts, cybersecurity engineers, software developers, cloud engineers, and mission stakeholders to translate operational needs into scalable technical solutions
• Evaluate new technologies and determine where they can materially improve cybersecurity operations
• Establish engineering standards, reusable architectures, technical documentation, and DevSecOps best practices
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship across cybersecurity, cloud, automation, and software engineering initiatives

Requirements:

• Significant hands-on experience in cybersecurity engineering, DevSecOps, cloud engineering, infrastructure automation, software development, or closely related technical disciplines
