  • Advanced vulnerability assessment, risk analysis, mitigation planning, remediation coordination, and trend-reporting experience.
  • Ability to assess security controls, determine control effectiveness, document weaknesses and residual risk, and recommend risk-informed courses of action.
  • Experience briefing senior leaders and supporting Authorizing Officials, AODRs, system owners, program offices, governance forums, and technical teams.
  • Strong technical writing, analytical, quality-control, stakeholder-management, and version-control skills.
