## Description

Cisco's Security & Trust Organization (STO) is the backbone of our global customer ecosystems. The Cryptographic Services team builds and operates the zero-trust infrastructure that secures digital identities and secrets at enterprise scale.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will blend platform engineering, cloud architecture, and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) to build resilient infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities:

- Modernize infrastructure by maintaining modular Terraform/Terragrunt, Helm charts, and Argo CD Application Sets.

- Automate lifecycles with zero-downtime upgrades and image pipelines.

- Enable tenants by building scalable isolation models.

- Champion compliance by implementing 'Policy-as-Code' and ensuring infrastructure meets FIPS 140-3 and audit standards.

- Optimize performance with end-to-end telemetry and root-cause analysis.

- Innovate by evaluating and prototyping next-gen identity and secrets technologies.

Requirements:

- 8+ years in DevOps, SRE, or Cloud Engineering.

- Hands-on experience deploying and leading HashiCorp Vault at scale.

- Deep knowledge of AWS (EKS, IAM, KMS, VPC) and Kubernetes orchestration.

- Experience building modular, reusable Terraform/Terragrunt environments and robust CI/CD pipelines.

- Proficiency in Go, Python, or Bash for operational tooling and API-driven automation.

- Experience supporting 24x7 production environments and leading incident responses.

Nice to Have:

- Compliance expertise in regulated environments like FedRAMP, SOC 2, or ISO 27001.

- Knowledge of HSMs and certificate management.

- Familiarity with OPA, Kyverno, or HashiCorp Sentinel.

- Exposure to enterprise database replication or complex middleware tiers.

The starting salary range for this position is $139,300.00 to $203,600.00. Benefits include medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability coverage, and basic life insurance.
