About the role

DevSecOps Engineer | $150,000 - $200,000 | Washington DC | Security Clearance Advantageous Albert Bow has partnered with a venture-backed AI intelligence platform. They're growing their US engineering team and looking for a DevSecOps Engineer who thinks like a software engineer first.
The Role: This isn't a traditional sysadmin hire. They want someone who understands modern infrastructure deeply, cares about security, and is comfortable owning production systems end-to-end in a fast-moving, high-stakes environment. You'll be working close to the core team, helping build and harden the infrastructure that powers diligence workflows, intelligence operations, and AI-driven analysis at enterprise scale.
What You'll Be Doing:
  • Owning and evolving CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and GitOps workflows
  • Building and maintaining secure, scalable cloud infrastructure across high-trust environments
  • Embedding security best practices throughout the development lifecycle, not just at the edges
  • Working cross-functionally with engineering and product to keep deployment fast and production stable
  • Supporting the infrastructure needs of government and intelligence customers where reliability is non-negotiable
  • What You BringStrong background in DevOps, DevSecOps, or platform engineering
  • A software engineering mindset — you write code, you don't just configure things
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar)
  • Experience with security or compliance frameworks (SOC 2, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, or similar)
  • Comfort operating in early-stage, high-ownership environments where things move quickly
  • Active security clearance, or the background to obtain one, is a significant advantage
Location: Washington DC preferred, East Coast considered
Salary: $150,000 - $200,000 depending on experience
This is an early enough stage that the people joining now will shape how this is built. If you're a DevSecOps engineer who wants real ownership in a business with serious customers and a compelling mission, this one is worth a conversation.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
