  • Senior-level experience supporting security control assessments, cybersecurity, security engineering, RMF, compliance, or related DoD security functions.
  • Demonstrated Special Access Program (SAP) knowledge and experience.
  • Strong analytical, technical writing, and stakeholder coordination skills.
  • This position is on-site. Must be able to work in the Arlington, Virginia office Monday through Friday during normal business hours.

Desired Skills:

  • Knowledge of DoD cybersecurity frameworks, security requirements, and compliance processes.
  • Experience reviewing security documentation, assessment findings, corrective action plans, and validation evidence.
  • Ability to develop executive-level reports, briefings, metrics, and status updates.
  • Strong organizational skills with experience maintaining assessment records, trackers, and matrices.
  • Ability to identify process improvements that enhance assessment of effectiveness and mission assurance.

Additional Information:
