Platform & IT Lead

Are you ready to POWER everything the mission builds on? RealmOne definitely is!

RealmOne was built on the principle that people matter first and foremost. We believe in providing a strong work/life balance by investing in our employees and encouraging professional and personal growth. We do this by offering exceptional benefits, flexible schedules, and the tools necessary to achieve success through paid training, mentoring, and the opportunity to work alongside top-notch industry professionals.

Join us as we scale the RealmOne Foundry, our innovation organization, where mission capability is designed, prototyped, matured, and delivered to the intelligence and defense customers whose missions depend on it. The Foundry turns working prototypes into products our customers can procure and use, in weeks rather than years.

Your effort and expertise are crucial to the Foundry's success. This opportunity supports a team of product architects, engineers, platform specialists, pursuit professionals, and product and sales leaders responsible for turning mission problems into products that strengthen national security.

Job Description:

• We are searching for a Platform & IT Lead to run the Foundry's infrastructure. You will operate lab infrastructure, compute resources, networking, model gateways, identity and access, and the prototype and demo environments our customers see. You will maintain configurations, access procedures, documentation, and environment readiness, and serve as the single coordination point with enterprise IT. You will support environment accreditation and security work with enterprise Security, and coordinate infrastructure demand with engineering and presales.

Responsibilities:

• Operate our on-prem network and infrastructure (virtual machines, containers, GPU compute, storage, and networking) so engineers can develop, deploy, and demonstrate capabilities quickly.
• Maintain lab and demo environments, including provisioning, patching, monitoring, backups, and troubleshooting.
• Be the single coordination point between the Foundry and enterprise IT.
• Support environment accreditation with Security: keep system documentation and inventories current, apply security baselines and hardening, gather evidence, and help close findings.
• Manage user access and identity (SSO, groups, roles) across lab services.
• Write and maintain runbooks, network diagrams, and configuration documentation.
• Automate routine work with scripts and infrastructure-as-code where it makes sense.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 0 to 3 years of professional experience
• Familiarity with Linux, macOS, and Windows operating environments, including installation, configuration, user management, and troubleshooting.
• Basic networking knowledge (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls) and familiarity with at least one scripting language (Bash, Python, or PowerShell).
• Hands-on experience with cloud administration, virtualization, container orchestration, and infrastructure-as-code.
