Job Description
Key Skills Required
Master these to land this role
Want to know if you're a match for this job?
Do you believe a dashboard should tell a story, not just blink at people? Are you the kind of engineer who automates the report nobody wanted to run by hand, and then quietly saves everyone an afternoon a week? After 5 years, you know that good governance isn’t red tape, it’s the thing that lets people move fast without breaking the platform. If you like turning raw platform data into decisions, then please apply.
What you'll do:
- Help CMS run its enterprise AI platform with the visibility and governance that keep it healthy and trusted.
- Stand up monitoring, metrics, and dashboards (think Datadog and cloud-native tooling) that turn platform health into something the whole team can see.
- Replace manual status-gathering with automated pipelines that produce clean, on-demand governance and performance reporting.
- Define and enforce the guardrails (usage, access, and operational standards) that keep a multi-team platform running smoothly.
- Use infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible) and CI/CD so governance and reporting are built in, not bolted on.
- Collaborate across engineering, security, and CMS stakeholders in a badgeless, one-team culture.
What we’d like you to have:
- A bachelor’s degree and 5+ years in DevOps, platform, or systems engineering.
- Solid AWS and DevOps skills: IaC (Terraform, Ansible), CI/CD, and cloud-native monitoring.
- Real experience with observability and reporting tooling (Datadog, CloudWatch, Splunk, or similar).
- Comfort scripting and automating in Python or Bash.
What would blow us away:
- Experience with platform governance or FinOps (cost/usage reporting, showback/chargeback).
- Familiarity with FISMA, RMF, ARS, or IS2P2 governance.
- Previous experience supporting CMS or another federal agency.
