About the Organization
Now is a great time to join Redhorse Corporation. We are a solution-driven company delivering data insights and technology solutions to customers with missions critical to U.S. national interests. We're looking for thoughtful, skilled professionals who thrive as trusted partners building technology-agnostic solutions and want to apply their talents supporting customers with difficult and important mission sets.
About the Role
Redhorse is seeking a highly skilled and experienced
Systems Engineer/IT Project Manager to support the architecture, engineering, implementation, and operation of a critical

The successful candidate will be a crucial part of a team responsible for managing the full lifecycle of a mission-critical infrastructure that hosts dozens of applications and a large data lake. This environment is separate from the Sponsor's enterprise IT services, requiring the team to own all components, from hardware (compute, network, storage) to enterprise services (VDI, Active Directory, audit/logging). The role demands a proactive, hands-on professional capable of providing expert technical guidance, driving security accreditation, and delivering real-time, worldwide support.

- Database Management: Provide technical and strategic guidance to Sponsor personnel for the creation, implementation, and maintenance of new and existing major databases supporting evolving applications (e.g., Mongo Databases).
- Field & User Support:
- Provide 24/7 (on-call rotation), in-depth Tier 1 through Tier 3 level support and problem resolution for technology products and applications to worldwide and overseas users.
- Provide end-to-end support of field network and forensic capabilities, diagnosing and resolving technical and access issues with overseas populations.
- Inspect and test all equipment prior to deployment, and research/recommend systems, equipment, and technologies to enhance existing systems.
- Digital Forensics Support: Evaluate the technical and cost implications of forensic tools, making recommendations on the best deployment strategy aligned with the Sponsor's business priorities. Teach digital forensics to large, diverse audiences and maintain/share curated work data.
