Though hands-on, being at a senior level, you will be expected to provide technical leadership and governance to the cloud environment, ensuring established global standards are maintained, costs are controlled, and best practices are implemented where possible.
A key part of the role will be to keep up to date with the latest developments in this technology, collaborating within Leidos and external vendors and assessing the latest offerings from platforms such as AWS, Azure and GCP to see how they can improve efficiency or add value to our service.
To be successful we need somebody who possesses curiosity, creativity, tech-savviness, persistence, strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Providing guidance on resource allocation, scalability, high availability, disaster recovery, and performance optimization will also be an important part of the role.
Most services we provide in-country are on-prem right now and so experience in VMware vSphere and NSX will be advantageous, as would a strong desire to pass on knowledge and experience to colleagues at all levels beginning their journey into cloud computing.
