What this job asks for AI summary

A hybrid hands-on/leadership role responsible for guiding the modernization of large-scale technology platforms across hybrid AWS and Azure environments. The engineer will own site reliability practices (SLIs/SLOs, incident response, observability), build infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines, embed security-by-design principles, and mentor a team of engineers — splitting time roughly evenly between individual contribution and technical team leadership.

Why we read it this way (6)

This role sits at the boundary between a senior individual contributor (15-1252) and a people manager (11-3021). The posting explicitly describes team leadership duties — sprint planning, mentoring, career development, code reviews — but also emphasizes 'hands-on individual contributor' work. Because the JD frames the IC work as primary and the leadership as a split, 15-1252 was chosen; 11-3021 is a genuine runner-up.

Veracode is listed under required skills with the qualifier 'such as', indicating the specific tool is interchangeable; however, because it appears in the required section with firm language, it is treated as a hard gate on application security testing capability. No alternatives were named in the posting.

Python, Bash, and PowerShell are listed together as scripting/automation options in the required section; Python is used as the primary skill name with Bash and PowerShell as alternatives since the posting treats them as interchangeable.

The location is listed as 'Remote, MD', suggesting the role is remote but anchored to Maryland. The CBSA is set to Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD as the most likely metro anchor.

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.

The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree… or equivalent practical experience', so no formal degree is hard-gated.
