  • Minimum 10 years of relevant experience related to cybersecurity, security control assessments, security engineering, Risk Management Framework (RMF), compliance, or related Department of Defense security functions.
  • 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:

  • Security Control Assessment (SCA) experience within the Department of Defense Environments.
  • 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:

  • This position supports Department of Defense mission requirements associated with the F-35 Joint Program Office.
