About the role
Raft builds mission-critical data, AI, and operational platforms that process high-volume sensor, operational, and mission data across multiple classification levels.

- 5+ years of production experience with Linux, containers, Docker, Kubernetes, and Kubernetes-based application delivery
- Deep experience building and operating CI/CD and GitOps workflows, preferably with GitLab CI, Argo CD, Flux, Helm, and environment promotion across regulated delivery pipelines
- Strong Kubernetes troubleshooting skills across workloads, controllers, networking, storage, RBAC, admission control, runtime configuration, and cluster health
- Hands-on experience applying software supply chain security practices such as SBOMs, SCA, SAST, DAST, vulnerability scanning, image signing, provenance, policy-as-code, and secure artifact promotion
- Experience with Terraform and Ansible or similar IaC and configuration management tooling for repeatable cloud and on-premises infrastructure delivery
