Own Splunk, Elastic, or ArcSight deployments end-to-end — configs, patches, uptime.

Host & VM Administration

Linux and Windows systems, hypervisors (ESXi, Hyper-V), and cloud assets.

Security Compliance

Apply federal, DoD, and IC configuration standards across all managed systems.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

• 5+ years in systems engineering or a similar infrastructure/ops role

• Strong networking fundamentals: DNS, DHCP, IPAM, load balancers, firewalls

• Hands-on hypervisor experience (VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Citrix XenServer)

• IAT II certification (or ability to obtain); CSSP Infrastructure Support cert required within 120 days of hire

• Proven root-cause analysis skills — you don't just fix symptoms, you find the source

• Excellent communication skills; comfortable working with both technical peers and non-technical stakeholders

BONUS POINTS

• SIEM experience with Splunk, Elastic, or ArcSight

• Familiarity with Cribl for data aggregation and normalization

• Scripting in Python, Bash, or PowerShell

• Public cloud experience (AWS, GCP, Rackspace) or private cloud (VMware, OpenStack)
