Applied Intuition is looking to accelerate secure software development across their full simulation and validation platform by building CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and developer tooling that maintain high velocity while ensuring compliance with government security protocols, clearance requirements, and air-gapped network constraints.
Requirements
- Deep expertise with CI/CD systems, build tooling, version control, and developer-facing services.
- Proficiency with Linux systems and common tools (e.g. Kubernetes, Git, Docker, Artifactory).
- Experience with secure systems development, especially in U.S. government or defense environments.
- Strong scripting and automation skills (Python or Bash preferred).
- Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) ,Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD), Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS)
- Proven expertise in setting up and managing on-premises instances of AWS Services, ML Ops tooling, and automated security monitoring solutions
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain high-leverage tools and systems that empower engineering teams to develop and deploy autonomy software with greater speed, reliability, and security.
- Design scalable CI/CD workflows that integrate with our autonomy-specific validation stack, including simulation, sensor modeling, and multi-agent testing.
- Improve the internal developer experience through robust build systems, reproducible environments, and secure artifact management.
- Support hybrid cloud and on-prem infrastructure used for large-scale simulation, ML pipelines, and real-time testing.
- Partner with simulation, ML, autonomy, and security teams to deliver tailored infrastructure for their needs—while keeping systems simple, reliable, and maintainable.
- Contribute to infrastructure and security compliance for customers operating in defense, classified, or other highly regulated domains.
Other
- We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cloud Computing, Cyber-security or a related engineering field
- U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
- CompTIA Security+ certification (or willingness to obtain within 6 months).
- Must be willing to travel as required to support projects; estimated average travel is once every other month for between 2-5 days (~20%)
