Role Snapshot

• Role: Chief Technology Officer
• Location/Type: US
  • Remote (quarterly travel)
• Pay: $185,000 - $200,000 Base Salary + $30K-$50K Bonus + equity
• Schedule: Full-time

You will own technology for a fast-growing Gov Con cybersecurity product during a 12–18 month land-grab phase. This is a hands-on, infra-first role focused on scaling a secure “digital clean room” for regulated data while layering in software leverage over time.

• Own end-to-end architecture for secure, client-isolated environments
• Scale a production platform handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
• Lead cloud, infrastructure, security, and automation decisions
• Ship automation for evidence collection, audit readiness, and compliance workflows
• Layer new software capabilities without disrupting current growth
• Stay hands-on with architecture, code reviews, and critical implementations
• Hire and build a lean, high-output engineering team

• 10+ years hands-on engineering and technical leadership
• Built and operated secure systems in regulated environments
• Deep experience with Linux- and Windows-based infrastructure
• Strong cloud architecture experience in Azure or equivalent
• Production experience with containerized workloads (Docker)
• Experience running or scaling systems on Kubernetes
• Proven ability to design infrastructure automation and CI/CD pipelines
• Strong security fundamentals across IAM, access controls, and data protection
• Comfortable evolving real systems without rewrites or idealized abstractions
• Able to code, review, and make architectural trade-offs directly

If you need a greenfield rewrite or a polished SaaS playground to be effective, this is not a fit.

• Gov Con, Gov Tech, or B2G experience
• Exposure to CMMC, FedRAMP, IL4
  , or similar compliance frameworks
• Experience with SIEM, SSO/IAM, secrets management, or zero-trust patterns
• Built internal control planes, automation tooling, or compliance workflows
• Experience scaling from “working but scrappy” to repeatable and defensible
• Familiarity with multi-tenant or client-isolated cloud architectures

• Linux and Windows-based secure environments
• Azure cloud infrastructure with Kubernetes orchestration
• Containerized services and automated CI/CD pipelines
• Security-first architecture including IAM, SIEM, and secrets management
• Client-isolated environments supporting regulated data workloads

You will have authority to evolve tooling as the platform scales.

Your work enables government contractors to securely handle sensitive data and pass audits faster. You will turn a working, infra-heavy platform into scalable leverage while keeping revenue momentum high during a critical market window.
