• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to operate and sustain end-to-end CI/CD pipelines, ensuring security and automated compliance are embedded throughout the entire software lifecycle.
• Implement DevSecOps best practices by integrating automated security testing, pipeline hardening, and continuous monitoring into the development framework.
• Support the secure transition of externally developed software into CI/CD pipelines, ensuring compliance with RAISE criteria from initial build through production deployment.
• Troubleshoot and resolve security-related build failures, pipeline disruptions, and deployment issues to maintain the integrity and velocity of the delivery process.
• Manage and interpret results from automated security tools to develop and maintain authorization artifacts directly within the DevSecOps toolchain.

Required Experience:

• Experience executing the Navy’s RAISE process for software authorization.
• Experience working within DevSecOps environments and utilizing CI/CD pipelines for software delivery.
• Experience with the Risk Management Framework (RMF) as a foundation for understanding the accelerated RAISE methodology.

Preferred Experience:
