  • Implement replication strategies, failover systems, and resiliency management for high-availability operations.
  • Design systems that distinctly separate public and private/classified data.
  • Support high-throughput streaming ingestion and processing of sensor, radar, SDR, and maritime feeds.
  • Develop infrastructure-as-code and automated deployment pipelines.
  • Ensure secure-by-design architecture is aligned with compliance requirements.
