Job Information

Lockheed Martin DevSecOps Engineer - GMD Weapons System (GWS) in Huntsville, Alabama

Description: What We're Doing

Become a part of something meaningful!

Ground Missile Defense (GMD) is the heart of the Missile Defense System and a key element of our nation’s defense against ballistic missile attacks.

The GMD Weapon System processes data from multiple sensors to identify and characterize the inbound ballistic missile threat, plans the best defensive solution, and launches the intercepting missiles to negate the threat.

The Work

As a DevOps Engineer, you will have phenomenal learning opportunities, exposure to a wide variety of projects and customers, all within a collaborative, fast paced workplace. We are looking for self-motivated, proactive, and goal-oriented people to help us grow our capability and become even better at what we do to develop the next generation of strategic deterrent capabilities for the nation.

As a DevSecOps engineer, you will drive unification and automation of processes to enable development of software capability across the entire GWS system. You will be instrumental in combining code, application maintenance, and application management. All these tasks rely on understanding not only development life cycles, but DevSecOps culture, and its philosophy, practices, and tools. You bring a curiosity and understanding of the development lifecycle goals and the transactions occurring within pipelines, scanning tools, deployments, and all steps of the development lifecycle. You will actively interface with DevSecOps and engineering teams to coordinate and optimize the steps that execute within the DevSecOps ecosystem and bring consistency and best practices in approach, tools, and standards. You will also create and maintain fully automated Continuous Integration (CI) build processes, which include writing builds and deployment scripts. Must be able to support an in-person, closed-area work environment 100% of the time.
