Senior Red Cyber Operator - DCART / Advanced Red Cyber

Beyond SOF

Location: "Hybrid in Arlington area"
Clearance: Active TS/SCI required
Travel: ~5% CONUS/OCONUS
The Mission
Join the DoD Cyber Assessment Red Team (DCART) to emulate nation-state adversaries and execute real-world offensive operations against mission-critical DoD infrastructure. Lead teams, shape tradecraft, and deliver findings to senior DoD decision makers.
What You'll Do
  • Lead full-scope red team assessments (planning, execution, reporting).
  • Execute offensive operations end-to-end: initial access → privilege escalation → lateral movement → impact/exfiltration.
  • Design, tune, and operate Cobalt Strike (required) along with other C2 frameworks (Sliver/Havoc/etc.).
  • Adapt payloads and C2 profiles to evade EDR/AV and telemetry.
  • Mentor and assess mid-level operators; enforce SOPs and OPSEC discipline.
  • Produce technical annexes and executive-level briefings.
Required
  • Active TS/SCI (U.S. citizen).
  • IAT Level III certified (or equivalent).
  • Hands-on, production experience with Cobalt Strike (MUST).
  • 3+ years of offensive cyber/red team/adversary emulation experience and ability to pass DCART Senior Operator Aptitude Assessment.
Nice-to-Have
  • RTAC, RTJC, CRTO, OSEP, OSEE, OSCP, GXPN, GPEN, GWAPT.
  • Experience across OT/ICS, IoT, and wireless target sets.
Apply: cleared resume + short technical write-up describing a recent real-world offensive engagement (no classified details). Be prepared to complete the DCART aptitude assessment within 7-14 days and onboard within 45 days.
