We are a data and technology innovation hub and a Benefit Corporation working at the center of the federal government's mission to deliver for client stakeholders and the US public, looking for highly motivated contributors who thrive when trusted to own a hard problem and equipped to deliver the solution.\nYour first assignment Your first assignment will likely include helping build and operate the secure delivery pipelines that carry a federal platform's services into production by:\nbuilding and maintaining continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines that take services from commit to deployment the same way every time\nwriting infrastructure-as-code on Amazon Web Services (AWS) so environments are created from templates, not by hand\ncontainerizing services and keeping images patched, scanned, and small\nwiring up the monitoring, logging, and vulnerability scanning that make systems observable and provably secure\nor helping assemble the security evidence that carries a system through its Authority to Operate (ATO).\nAdaptability and an appetite for learning new concepts, systems, and tools are what will move you forward fastest here.\nWhat you'll build Pipelines a team relies on every day: builds, tests, and deployments that are routine rather than events.\nThe security fabric around them, learned by doing: scanning, monitoring and logging, and controls mapped to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-53.\nWorking automation reviewed by people who explain what to change and why, and the findings you chase down along the way: the fastest ways to get good at this.\nYour part of the shift-left practice that builds security in rather than bolting it on, growing as you show you can carry more.\nAI-assisted engineering as standard practice: learning tools like Amazon Q Developer across the lifecycle.\nIn time, the firm itself: new capabilities, tools, and lines of business you help spin up.\nWho you are You treat security and reliability as part of the build, not a gate at the end, and you are highly motivated to develop as an engineer who automates what others do by hand and leaves an audit trail behind. You ask when you are stuck rather than guessing, you take feedback as the fastest route forward, and when priorities shift, you shift with them. You communicate clearly, adapt across roles and clients, and care about creating public value. You experiment, fail, learn, and repeat quickly. You would rather own an outcome than be handed a task.\nWhat you bring A foundation in scripting, cloud fundamentals, and delivery automation, and a real appetite to go deeper on the security side.\nThe delivery habits, or the willingness to build them fast: version control, automated testing, code review, and secure configuration.\nThe communication to say clearly what you have done, what you are stuck on, and what you need.\nThe precision to work where accuracy and auditability are not optional.\nWhat you'll need U.S. citizenship (this initial engagement may be staffed by U.S. citizens only) and the ability to obtain a Public Trust determination.\nThis is a hybrid role based in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, and it requires commuting into DC regularly.\nEverything else, the years, the certifications, the specific tools, we ask in the application and get into during the interview.\nWhat we offer A high-performing team of developers, engineers, data scientists, architects, and strategists solving complex, real-world problems, with work that runs from strategy formulation to hands‑on implementation. We develop people across roles and clients, with extensive onboarding and sponsored training and professional development. And Peregrine has been a Benefit Corporation from day one: public value is built into the work itself, not bolted on afterward. Work worth your best years.\nWhat we commit to As a Benefit Corporation, our commitment runs three ways: real, measurable value for our clients; government that works better for the public; and a team that makes everyone in it better.\nWe hire people who want to help build the firm, not just work at it.
