Job Description:

Each day U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) oversees the massive flow of people, capital, and products that enter and depart the United States via air, land, sea, and cyberspace. The volume and complexity of both physical and virtual border crossings require the application of “big data” solutions to promote efficient trade and travel. Further, effective “big data” solutions help CBP ensure the movement of people, capital, and products is legal, safe, and secure. In response to this challenge CBP, seeks capable, qualified, and versatile Senior Big Data Leads to facilitate data-driven decision making in response to national security threats. Senior Cloud Engineer will: 1) support the development of enterprise applications; 2) design and implement micro-services architectures; 3) oversee, work with, and assist other Big Data Engineers; and 3) develop performance dashboards and artifacts to inform resource allocation, justify requirements, and support statutory reporting mandates. The strongest applicants will have a proven track record of delivering production ready decision support tools and applications employed in the field and by mission-support entities. Within three to six months of joining the project, the Senior Cloud Engineer will be expected to:

Lead and perform development and maintenance of end-user focused, object-oriented, data-driven analytic applications using DevOps and Agile development principles and technologies to support CBP threat analysis and targeting.

Independently identify technical solutions for business problems, directly contribute to conceptual design, and routinely collaborate with Enterprise/Application architects, Database Architects, Data Scientists, and mission stakeholders for building and transitioning on-prem applications to a hybrid cloud environment on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Develop new code, modify existing application code, conduct unit and system testing, and engage in rigorous documentation of developed and delivered application use cases, data flows, and functional operations.

Demonstrate a strong practical understanding of application-relevant cargo and passenger data and databases used to support analytic application development, functionality and targeting end user (officer) operation.
