Job summary

GovSignals is seeking a Platform Engineer to own the infrastructure and security of a platform that runs in commercial cloud, FedRAMP High, and IL5 environments. You will own deployments, run Kubernetes clusters, and ensure seamless operation across all environments.

You will build agent-facing infrastructure, implement GitOps, and collaborate with deployment teams to integrate customer data for thousands of users managing billions in contracts.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in platform, infrastructure, or security engineering roles.
• Experience building infrastructure that other engineers depend on.
• Deep Kubernetes experience in production: cluster operations, networking, GitOps, and upgrades without downtime.
• You've taken infrastructure through a real migration or scaling event and can walk through what broke.
• You build secure by default: hardened images, least-privilege access, network policy, and secrets management are where you start.

Responsibilities

• Run the same product in three places at once: commercial cloud, FedRAMP High in AWS GovCloud, and IL5.
• Run the Kubernetes clusters, GitOps pipelines, networking, and observability for each environment, and make standing up a new environment a repeatable process.
• Build infrastructure where AI agents are first-class users: agentic harnesses that support how billions in government contract volume gets won and managed, automated remediation loops, and deployment tooling used by engineers and agents alike.
• Work with our deployment team to integrate customer data, including data underpinning America's warfighting capabilities, and support thousands of users at enterprises managing billions in contracts.
• Our stack: Kubernetes, AWS GovCloud, UDS, Cloudflare Workers, TypeScript, Postgres.
