The Opportunity:

You will lead cybersecurity engineering efforts across the full system lifecycle for DoD collateral, SAP and SCI environments.

How You'll Contribute:

  • Integrate and refine cybersecurity requirements within system designs and architecture.
  • Conduct security architecture reviews, threat modeling, and technical risk assessments.
  • Develop and maintain security engineering artifacts such as STIG checklists, control traceability, or architecture diagrams.
  • Assess system compliance, evaluate design alternatives, and provide mitigation recommendations.
  • Support secure enclave integration, including SIPRNet architecture, boundary defenses, and Type 1 crypto devices.
  • Analyze risks associated with emerging tools, technologies, and processes.
  • Collaborate with ISSOs, ISSMs, SCAs, and program stakeholders throughout system development.

Join us. The world can't wait.

You Have:

  • 8+ years of experience as an ISSO, ISSM, ISSE or SCA supporting classified programs
  • Experience supporting RMF activities, including documentation in tools like EMASS, SNOW or Xacta
  • Experience building or maintaining classified networks such as SIPRNet or CWAN
  • Ability to build and review SPLUNK dashboards, correlation searches and audit analysis
  • Ability to decompose RMF security requirements such as DoD JSIG, DAAG, or ICD-503 into technical solutions
  • Active TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph exam
  • Bachelor's degree
  • IAM Level III certification including CISSP, GSLC, or CISM

Nice If You Have:

  • Experience with DoD cloud environments, such as Azure or AWS IL5/IL6
  • Experience with CORA and mission impact processes
  • CCSP, CASP+, cloud or network security certifications

Clearance:
Applicants selected will be subject to a security investigation and may need to meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information; TS/SCI clearance is required.
