Splunk Administrator

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
