## Description

Leidos is seeking an experienced Cloud Engineering Manager to lead cloud operations and service delivery initiatives supporting the United States Coast Guard's Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, and Intelligence Service Center (C5ISC).

The Cloud Engineering Manager plays a central role in ensuring that the contract’s IT services and solutions are delivered effectively, efficiently, and in compliance with government regulations and service-level agreements (SLAs).

**Primary Duties:**

- Provide direct people leadership, coaching, performance management, staffing, and technical direction for a multidisciplinary team of cloud engineers, cloud infrastructure and migration architects, network engineers, identity engineers, and test engineers.

- Own engineering strategy, architecture quality, technical standards, and execution across AWS and Microsoft Azure environments.

- Lead end-to-end cloud migration efforts: discovery and dependency analysis, target-state architecture, migration-wave planning, implementation, validation, cutover, and post-migration stabilization.

- Personally engage in architecture and design reviews, challenge assumptions, resolve complex technical issues, and guide teams toward elegant, scalable, resilient, cost-conscious solutions.

- Oversee the engineering and implementation of infrastructure as code (IaC), automation, cloud-native services, configuration baselines, observability solutions, disaster recovery capabilities, and standardized deployment patterns.

- Partner with cybersecurity and authorization teams to engineer compliant solutions and produce quality technical evidence supporting NIST RMF, FISMA, FedRAMP, DoD Impact Level requirements, Zero Trust, and ATO activities.

- Lead cross-functional planning with Cloud Operations, Cybersecurity, PMO, application owners, and government stakeholders.

- Manage engineering delivery plans, integrated schedules, milestones, dependencies, capacity, estimates, risks, and mitigation actions.

- Serve as a trusted technical advisor to Coast Guard and program leadership.

- Direct collaboration with AWS Professional Services and other technical partners.

- Develop technical talent and succession depth through mentoring, design reviews, skills development, recruiting, and clear ownership.

- Create and review architecture diagrams, engineering designs, migration runbooks, implementation plans, technical documentation, and decision records.

**Basic Qualifications:**

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related discipline.

- 8+ years of progressively responsible cloud/infrastructure engineering or architecture experience.

- 4+ years of direct technical people management or engineering team leadership.

- Strong hands-on technical background designing, integrating, and troubleshooting enterprise AWS and/or Azure cloud solutions.

- Demonstrated experience planning and executing complex enterprise infrastructure or application migrations.

- Ability to evaluate and present architectural alternatives and produce high-quality technical solutions.

- Experience managing project schedules, resource plans, technical backlogs, delivery risks, and cross-team dependencies.

- Working knowledge of cloud networking, identity and access management, infrastructure automation/IaC, DevSecOps, security engineering, and operational handoff.

- Familiarity with federal cybersecurity and authorization frameworks including FISMA, NIST RMF, FedRAMP, and ATO processes.

- Excellent written, verbal, customer-facing, and executive briefing skills.

**Clearance Requirement:**

- Current and active Public Trust.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Experience supporting DHS, U.S. Coast Guard, DoD, or other large federal civilian IT modernization programs.

- Experience managing engineering teams of 10+ personnel.
