- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
- This individual brings 10+ years of professional experience in infrastructure engineering, site reliability engineering, or enterprise platform architecture, including experience supporting complex enterprise environments.

- Must reside in the Continental US; located in the state of Pennsylvania a plus, but not required.
- Depending on the government agency, specific requirements may include public trust background check or security clearance.
- Experience with Citrix App and Desktop Virtualization.
- Certification in any of the following is a plus:
- AWS Certified Solutions Architect
- Google Professional Cloud Architect
- Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert
- Certified Kubernetes Administrator
- ITIL Foundation
- Experience working with large public sector, healthcare system environments, or within the State/Commonwealth is a plus.
