The Opportunity:
CACI is seeking an Lead Oracle HCM Cloud Platform and DevOps Engineer to build and operate the cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and environment management framework that underpins a large-scale federal HCM modernization program. This initiative will deploy Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM across multiple federal agencies serving federal civilian employees, and the platform engineering team is responsible for ensuring that every environment — from DEV through PROD — operates securely, reliably, and at the performance levels the mission demands. You will work with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) in a FedRAMP Moderate+ authorized environment, building automated deployment pipelines, managing configuration baselines per NIST 800-128 standards, and orchestrating Oracle quarterly update deployments across multiple environments. Using tools like Terraform, Jenkins, and Python, you will automate everything from environment provisioning to disaster recovery failover. This role is built for engineers who want to operate cloud platforms at federal scale with zero tolerance for downtime. This position is at the T5 (lead/principal) level, suited for a recognized technical authority who sets direction for the functional area, establishes standards and best practices, and provides technical oversight across multiple workstreams.
Responsibilities:
• Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM configuration deployment, using Jenkins, Terraform, and Python to automate promotion of configurations across DEV, TEST, STAGE, and PROD environments
• Manage and administer Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) resources within FedRAMP Moderate+ authorized environments, including compute, networking, storage, and identity and access management configurations
• Establish and maintain configuration baselines for all environments in accordance with NIST SP 800-128 (Guide for Security-Focused Configuration Management), ensuring every deployment is traceable and auditable
• Orchestrate Oracle quarterly update deployment across all program environments, coordinating with functional and test teams to validate update impacts, execute regression testing, and manage rollback procedures
• Implement and maintain disaster recovery and business continuity capabilities, including automated failover procedures, backup/restore processes, and DR testing exercises per contract requirements
• Monitor platform performance, availability, and capacity using OCI monitoring tools, establishing alerting thresholds and automated remediation workflows to maintain the program uptime SLAs
• Implement infrastructure-as-code practices using Terraform for provisioning, configuration management, and environment replication to ensure consistency across all deployment stages
• Enforce FIPS 140-3 encryption standards for data at rest and in transit across all platform components, coordinating with cybersecurity engineers on key management and certificate lifecycle management
• Manage environment refresh cycles, data masking for non-production environments, and sandbox provisioning to support parallel agency transition workstreams during agency deployment and transition activities
• Develop and maintain platform operational runbooks, environment architecture diagrams, and deployment procedures that support both program operations and ATO documentation requirements
• Participate in SAFe Agile ceremonies as part of the platform engineering team, contributing to sprint planning for infrastructure stories, deployment automation tasks, and technical debt remediation
• Serve as a recognized technical authority within the assigned domain, setting direction for functional area strategy, establishing standards and best practices, and providing technical oversight across multiple workstreams or Agile Release Trains within the program
• Lead and mentor a team of technical and functional professionals, drive innovation in solution approaches, influence cross-functional decisions that shape program delivery, and represent the technical perspective to senior program leadership
Qualifications:
Required:
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field
• 9+ years of professional experience in cloud platform engineering, DevOps engineering, or systems administration for enterprise cloud environments
• 8+ years of hands-on experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or equivalent FedRAMP-authorized cloud platforms
• Strong proficiency with CI/CD pipeline tools including Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or equivalent, with experience automating build, test, and deployment workflows
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools, particularly Terraform, for provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure in a declarative, version-controlled manner
• Proficiency in Python and/or Bash scripting for automation of operational tasks, monitoring, and deployment orchestration
• Understanding of federal security compliance requirements including FIPS 140-3, NIST 800-53, and FedRAMP Moderate+ control baselines as they apply to cloud infrastructure
• Experience with environment management practices including configuration baselining, change control, and release management in multi-environment enterprise deployments
• Must be able to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance (US Citizenship required)
• Additional experience may substitute for degree
Desired:
• 6+ years of cloud platform or DevOps engineering experience, including at least one large-scale Oracle Cloud (OCI) or Oracle SaaS deployment
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate/Professional or Oracle Cloud Operations Associate certification
• Experience managing Oracle Fusion Cloud SaaS environments including quarterly update planning, sandbox management, and environment refresh operations
• Familiarity with NIST SP 800-128 configuration management standards and federal CM/change control board processes
• Experience implementing DR/BC solutions for federal cloud systems, including automated failover testing and RPO/RTO validation
• Knowledge of container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker) and microservices architectures in federal cloud environments
• Experience with federal ATO processes and contributing infrastructure evidence artifacts (SSP, POA&M, configuration scans) to RMF packages
• Experience with Oracle Cloud technologies including Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) and/or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) in enterprise HCM or ERP environments
