  • Provide technical expertise during incident response and forensic investigations.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend enhancements to improve security posture.
  • Define and track measurable outcomes such as MTTR reduction, SLA adherence, compliance score improvements, and false positive reduction to meet performance-based contract KPIs.
  • Coordinate with federal stakeholders (CISO, ISSOs, AO) and provide audit support for ATO processes.
  • Ensure adherence to performance-based contract requirements and federal cybersecurity mandates.

Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Management (IM), Information Technology, Engineering, or equivalent with 6 years of technical experience, or 4 years' experience in IT Solutions at senior management
  • Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) mandatory with Information Systems Security Engineering Professional (ISSEP) concentration
  • Project Management Institute (PMI) Project Management Professional (PMP) (Highly Recommended)
  • Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) 4 Foundation
  • 10 years of successful enterprise experience in an IT or technology-related field, with the last 5 years, on large government technical contract/BPAs
  • US Citizen with the ability to pass a comprehensive government background check

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Master's degree in cybersecurity, IT, or a related technical field
  • Experience supporting SOC operations in federal or regulated environments
  • Familiarity with RMF, NIST 800-series, OMB A-130, and TIC 3.0
  • Proven leadership in cross-functional teams and performance-based contracts
  • Strong communication skills, including executive briefings and incident reporting
  • Hands-on experience with SIEM (Splunk, Elastic), SOAR (Cortex XSOAR), and EDR (CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender).
  • Expertise in cloud security engineering (AWS, Azure, GCP) and container security (Kubernetes, Docker).
  • Familiarity with Zero Trust Architecture principles and implementation strategies.
  • Familiarity Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM).
  • Experience with PKI, encryption standards, and secure network design.
  • Knowledge of automation tools for security orchestration and compliance reporting.
