Technical Writer

Cyberstrike: People Powering Government

Job Description

Do you write the policies, SOPs and compliance documents that make a security program work?

If so, this one is for you.

A specialist national security contractor is hiring a Technical Writer for a federal Research Security Program.

The work is turning complex security and cyber requirements into clear documents people actually use. You’ll write and maintain policies, SOPs, training materials, compliance reports and incident response documents, working with analysts, program managers and cybersecurity specialists to capture what they know and turn it into usable guidance.

You’ll also create the standard disclosure forms under NSPM-33.

What they need

  • Active TS/SCI (Tier 5), required before start
  • 5+ years of technical writing in a federal, research or cybersecurity environment
  • Experience writing policies, SOPs and compliance reports
  • Understanding of NIST 800, FISMA and RMF
  • Microsoft Office, Google Workspace and Smartsheets

Ideal background: research security, export control or federal compliance writing. NSPM-33 knowledge is a plus.

Location: Silver Spring, MD. Hybrid.

This is a writing role at the centre of a national security program, not an admin role.
