The Opportunity: 

Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud,” but not everyone knows how to secure it. As a Cybersecurity Engineer, you know how to assess and implement requirements that ensure the safety of information systems and protect them against intentional or inadvertent access or destruction. What if you could use your cloud security skills to improve one of the largest software factories in the DoD? We need you to help us develop cloud-based security architectures for some of the most critical systems.  

  

As a Cybersecurity Engineer on our team, you’ll develop innovative solutions to complex cyber risk problems, manage evaluation and accreditation of client systems, and apply technical solutions working in cloud environments. You’ll coordinate and work with various teams 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. We need to come up with the best solutions, so you’ll investigate new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going.  

  

Your technical expertise will be vital as you help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by integrating secure practices like risk management frameworks and developing software and hardware solutions on a variety of technological platforms. You’ll be able to broaden your skillset into areas like working with cloud-based security while building peace of mind in a critical infrastructure. 

  

Help us transform and secure the software delivery to a state-of-the-art multirole warfighter with cloud technology.
