OUR MISSION 

The peaceful use of space is essential for continued prosperity on Earth—from communications and finance to navigation and logistics. True Anomaly builds innovative technology at the intersection of spacecraft, software, and AI to enhance the capabilities of the U.S., its allies, and commercial partners. We safeguard global security by ensuring space access and sustainability for all. 

OUR VALUES 

Be the Offset.  We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity 

What would it take?  We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results 

It’s the People. Our team is our competitive advantage, and we are better together 

YOUR MISSION 

True Anomaly operates across Azure, AWS, their GovCloud variants, on-premises facilities, classified environments, and customer-deployed infrastructure. As Senior Manager of Infrastructure Engineering, you will own the compute platform that ties all of it together: Kubernetes, networking, CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, and the government-accredited environments that the company deploys into. Your team will grow initially to 6 then further as the company breaks out dedicated subteams for SRE, network engineering, developer productivity, and incident management. The infrastructure you build will serve every program in the company, directly displace subcontractor engagements that currently cost millions per program, and form the foundation of True Anomaly’s accredited compute platform. This role requires someone who can operate across the full breadth of infrastructure disciplines, make sound architectural calls in classified and unclassified environments, and build a team that scales with an aggressive growth trajectory. 

RESPONSIBILITIES 

• Build and lead the Infrastructure Engineering team: initially 3 Senior Engineers (Kubernetes/platform reliability, networking, CI/CD/cloud), growing into dedicated subteams as the organization scales 

• Own the compute platform strategy across commercial, CUI, and classified environments, delivering standardized infrastructure that any program can deploy onto instead of building from scratch 

• Deliver government-accredited compute environments (IL-5, IL-6) using internal engineering capacity, replacing the current model of outsourcing each new accredited environment to subcontractors 

• Drive Kubernetes standardization, multi-tenant cluster design, service mesh, and workload orchestration across the company’s multi-cloud and on-premises footprint 

• Partner closely with the Staff/Principal Platform Engineer and Staff/Principal Network Engineer (who report to the VP) as the senior technical anchors for compute and networking architecture 

• Collaborate with Cybersecurity on hardened infrastructure (STIGs, security scanning, network segmentation) and with AI and Data Engineering on the compute and networking layer their platforms run on 

QUALIFICATIONS 

• 10+ years of experience in infrastructure, platform, or systems engineering, with 3+ years leading infrastructure teams across multiple technical disciplines 
• Active U.S. security clearance, such as Secret, Top Secret or TS/SCI clearance 

• Deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, container orchestration, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GovCloud variants) at production scale 

• Working knowledge of networking across complex environments: multi-cloud, on-premises, VPNs, firewalls, and network segmentation across classification boundaries 

• Direct experience building or operating DoD accredited environments (IL-4/IL-5 or higher), with familiarity with NIST 800-53, STIGs, RMF, and the ATO process 

• Experience with CI/CD platform design and infrastructure-as-code practices at scale (Terraform, Ansible, or similar) 

• Track record of building and leading engineering teams in high-growth environments where the infrastructure had to scale faster than the headcount 

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE 

• Experience in aerospace, defense, or national security technology companies where infrastructure spans classification levels 

• Background managing teams that operate across both unclassified and classified environments with mixed clearance requirements 

• Experience with service mesh (Istio, Linkerd), GitOps workflows, and developer platform tooling 

• Prior experience at a high-growth company where a single infrastructure team covered multiple disciplines before specializing into subteams 
• Familiarity with platform engineering “paved roads” operating models that balance standardization with engineering team autonomy 

COMPENSATION  

• Base Salary:   Long Beach - $165,000 to $230,000, Denver - $160,000 to $220,000

• Equity + Benefits including Health, Dental, Vision, HRA/HSA options, PTO and paid holidays, 401K, Parental Leave 

Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education and experience. 

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS 

• Active U.S. Secret clearance required; Top Secret preferred; must be able to obtain TS/SCI 

• Work Location: this role will be fully onsite at our facilities in Centennial, CO or Long Beach, CA  

• Work environment is in a standard office, working at a desk or in a production factory. 

• Physical demands may include frequent standing, sitting, walking, bending, and lifting or carrying items up to 20lbs.
