ECS is seeking a DevOps Engineer to work in our Albuquerque, NM office.  

Job Description:

ECS is seeking a DevOps Engineer to support a major national laboratory. Our team designs, evaluates, and develops sophisticated software architectures for processing and exploitation of remote sensing information. We invent, analyze and implement the frameworks, infrastructures and algorithms that support real-time extraction and classification of static and dynamic events from a variety of very complicated data streams from pathfinder remote sensing assets. We process terabytes of near real time data daily, extracting information and providing it to national decision makers. You will employ systems-level thinking to plan, develop, and execute the implementation of solutions in the areas of cloud computing, security architecture, software architecture and network engineering. We design, develop, and deploy large, networked computing systems that push the state-of-the-art in data processing throughput and real-time response.
