Cybersecurity Security Architect(virtual remote)

Cybersecurity Architect

Everyone knows security needs to be “baked in” to system architecture, but you actually know how to bake it in. As a Cybersecurity Architect on our project, you’ll lead the architecture and design efforts of innovative cybersecurity solutions and service offerings to protect federal networks. You’ll coordinate with a dynamic team of thought leaders and experts to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer’s IT needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions.

You’ll lead the team through a critical approach to network and systems design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and mission needs. This is a chance to make a difference in the security of the government. Your technical expertise will be vital as you help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by leading cybersecurity technologies and domains, including IoT and Cloud security, Automation and Orchestration (A&O), identity and access management, and machine learning.

Join our team, as we tackle cybersecurity challenges and shape opportunities to implement solutions and service offerings leveraging investments and proven capabilities.
