ECS is seeking a talented, dynamic, and dedicated Senior Cloud Engineer to support the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Dashboard Ecosystem Program. The CDM Dashboard Program provides cybersecurity tools, integration services, and dashboards to participating agencies to support them in improving their respective security posture. CDM is a large, DHS-managed program which is comprised of several large contracts and various services. ECS is delivering the next generation CDM Dashboard.

Core technologies include Elasticsearch and Kibana.

ECS is also deploying, operating and maintaining the CDM Federal Dashboard, as well as a subset of Agency Dashboards hosted in a DHS-managed AWS environment under the Agency Dashboard as a Service (DBaaS) offering. CDM DEFEND System Integrators (SIs) are responsible for the installation, configuration, operations and maintenance of the CDM Agency Dashboard which operate in agency environments. Specific task areas within the CDM Dashboard contract include: Requirements Management, Design and Analysis, Development, Testing, Knowledge Management and Communications, Training, Helpdesk Support, Security Support, Deployment Services and Operations & Maintenance.
A successful candidate will be part of a team supporting 5+ environments ranging from developer sandboxes to production. This individual will be passionate about cloud, DevOps, automation, and software development. As we seek to deliver mission critical cloud services to the federal government, the stability, automation, and scalability will be critical to our success. This individual will work with many teams to pursue industry best practice and seek to collaborate with many stakeholders. Work location is Fairfax, VA, with option to work remotely. A strong candidate will always seek to deliver work as code in a repeatable manner, have a desire to lead and have experience with modern DevOps technologies to provide high quality technical support and leadership for transformational efforts and teams.
