Our diverse teams of innovators unite around a singular purpose: empowering our customers to succeed in their critical missions. We believe in leading with integrity, investing in our communities, and building sustainably for tomorrow.
Shape the future of digital defense.
Our Digital Modernization sector is at the forefront of next-generation technology, architecting cutting‑edge solutions in cyber defense, logistics optimization, security operations, and decision intelligence. We’re the minds behind the mission‑critical systems that keep our nation secure.
Your opportunity to lead transformation.
We’re seeking a Cloud/Network Engineer to spearhead cloud initiatives for the United States Coast Guard at C5ISC in Alexandria, VA. In this role, you’ll architect the cloud infrastructure that powers critical Coast Guard operations, driving innovation that directly impacts national security.
Ready to engineer solutions that matter.
Primary Responsibilities We are seeking a highly capable Senior Cloud/Network Engineer with expertise in AWS, Azure, and a strong networking background. This individual will be responsible for developing scalable cloud‑native solutions and ensuring best practices across architecture, networking, deployment, and security. This is a hands‑on technical role that requires rolling up your sleeves to architect, code, debug, and mentor.
Key Responsibilities
Design and develop scalable, resilient, and secure cloud solutions across AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform
Create reference architectures, design patterns, and technical standards for cloud implementations
Design, implement, and maintain secure cloud network architectures in AWS, Azure, and hybrid environments
Integrate cloud networks with on‑premises DoD infrastructure using VPNs, Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, and SD‑WAN
Implement network segmentation, Zero Trust principles, and policy‑based access controls
Automate network provisioning using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform and Ansible
Monitor network performance and troubleshoot connectivity issues using tools like CloudWatch, Azure Monitor and capture utilities
Evaluate emerging cloud technologies and assess their potential impact on organizational goals
Assess legacy systems and design modernization strategies including containerization and microservices
Design secure cloud architectures implementing zero‑trust principles and defense‑in‑depth strategies
Ensure compliance with industry standards (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI‑DSS, etc.) and regulatory requirements
Partner with business stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into technical solutions
Collaborate with cross‑functional teams including development, operations, security, and product management
Present architectural designs and recommendations to executive leadership
Create and maintain comprehensive technical documentation
Basic Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree and 8+ years of experience in an IT discipline
Excellent customer service skills, with experience working in a customer‑facing position for a minimum of 4 years
Experience with AWS, Azure, cloud hosting, networking, DevSecOps and various cloud SaaS offerings
Strong experience with Palo Alto Networks or Versa Networks
DoD Thunderdome experience is a plus
Certifications such as Palo Alto Certified Network Engineer, Versa Certified SD‑WAN Engineer, F5‑CTS, AWS Advanced Networking, or Azure Network Engineer Associate
Support AWS Cloud hosted applications (including deployments, patches, security checks, and maintenance)
Provide support and troubleshoot AWS deployed applications
Provide guidance in developing and optimizing administrative processes and procedures
Work with SMEs and Security Team in defining secure‑based cloud architecture
Create and update standard operating procedures, and operational processes
Windows Server creation, configuration, upgrade, migration, and patching
Clearance: This position requires candidates to have an active Public Trust and will accept up to TS/SCI
Certifications
Candidate must, at a minimum, have one of these certifications:
AWS Certified Advanced Networking, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Azure Developer Associate, Azure Solutions Architect, Versa Certified SD‑WAN Engineer, F5‑CTS, or Azure Network Engineer Associate, Palo Alto Certified Network Engineer
At Leidos, we don’t want someone who “fits the mold” — we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over‑caffeinated, the ones who ask, “what’s next?” before the dust settles on “what’s now.”
If you’re already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You’ll fit right in.
Commitment to Non‑Discrimination All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to sex, race, ethnicity, age, national origin, citizenship, religion, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, pregnancy, family structure, marital status, ancestry, domestic partner status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, veteran or military status, or any other basis prohibited by law. Leidos will also consider for employment qualified applicants with criminal histories consistent with relevant laws.
