Splunk Administrator

🔒 Clearance & Citizenship Requirements

This position requires U.S. Citizenship and an active TS/SCI security clearance with polygraph. Candidates who do not currently hold these credentials will not be considered.

Shape how real threats get detected. This isn't just another admin gig — it's your chance to own Splunk across a national security program at one of the highest-clearance sites in the country. You'll optimize logs that matter, dashboards that drive action, and alerts that help protect lives.

Stable contract. Minimal churn. One interview + tech conversation → decision in 3–5 days.

What You'll Do

• Build and own the Splunk architecture that supports mission visibility

• Reduce alert noise, optimize search latency, and design dashboards that drive real-world action

• Collaborate with mission users to improve their insight-to-decision pipeline

• Tune ingestion and parsing logic to extract the signal from the noise — faster

Who This Is For

You're a systems thinker who wants your skills to actually matter. You've worked in classified environments and know how to translate logs into intelligence. If you want autonomy, respect, and a high bar for tech and mission impact — you'll feel at home here.
