Disruptive Solutions, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) delivering mission-focused cybersecurity and technology solutions for federal and commercial clients. We specialize in advanced cybersecurity operations, AI/ML integration, cloud modernization, data governance, and risk management. With a proven track record supporting agencies like the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the Department of Treasury, we deliver innovative solutions that maximize efficiency and strengthen cyber resilience. At our core, we are dedicated partners committed to securing the mission with innovation, integrity, and measurable impact.

Disruptive Solutions is seeking a Cyber Strategy & Planning Lead to support executive leadership in driving cybersecurity strategy, operational planning, and mission execution for a large federal cybersecurity program supporting Federal Programs. This role serves as a strategic advisor responsible for aligning cybersecurity initiatives across multiple mission areas, including Security Fusion Center (SFC) Operations, Incident Response, Security Control Assessments (SCA), Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM), and enterprise cybersecurity engineering. The Cyber Strategy & Planning Lead partners closely with government leadership to develop strategic priorities, coordinate cross-functional initiatives, identify emerging risks and opportunities, and ensure cybersecurity capabilities support evolving mission objectives. The ideal candidate combines a strong cybersecurity background with exceptional strategic thinking, executive communication, and organizational leadership skills. This is not a traditional program management role; it is focused on shaping cyber strategy, driving operational alignment, and enabling mission success across the enterprise.

• Serve as a strategic advisor to government leadership on cybersecurity initiatives, priorities, and long-term planning.
• Develop and maintain enterprise cybersecurity strategies, roadmaps, and implementation plans aligned with agency objectives.
• Coordinate planning efforts across Security Fusion Center Operations, Incident Response, Security Control Assessments, Third-Party Risk Management, and cybersecurity engineering teams.
• Lead cross-functional strategic initiatives that improve cybersecurity maturity, operational effectiveness, and mission readiness.
• Facilitate executive planning sessions, governance meetings, and strategic working groups.
• Develop executive-level briefings, strategic communications, decision papers, and operational reports.
• Identify emerging cybersecurity risks, capability gaps, and modernization opportunities, and provide actionable recommendations.
• Collaborate with technical leaders to align cybersecurity investments with mission priorities and business objectives.
• Support organizational change management and the implementation of new cybersecurity capabilities, processes, and technologies.
• Track strategic initiatives, key performance indicators (KPIs), and organizational objectives to measure program success.
• Foster collaboration across government stakeholders, contractors, and partner organizations to achieve enterprise cybersecurity goals.
• Stay informed on emerging cyber threats, federal cybersecurity policy, and technology trends to support strategic decision-making.

• Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Business, Public Administration, or a related discipline.
• 10+ years of experience supporting federal cybersecurity, enterprise IT, or mission support programs.
• Experience supporting executive leadership in cybersecurity strategy, planning, governance, or organizational transformation.
• Strong understanding of federal cybersecurity operations, Security Operations Centers (SOCs), Security Fusion Centers, Incident Response, and Risk Management Framework (RMF) principles.
• Experience developing strategic plans, roadmaps, executive briefings, governance documentation, and organizational performance metrics.
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders across technical and operational organizations.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and executive communication skills.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Public Trust Clearance.

• Experience with NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), NIST SP 800-53, Risk Management Framework (RMF), and federal cybersecurity governance.
• Experience supporting enterprise cybersecurity modernization initiatives.
• Knowledge of Zero Trust Architecture, Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM), or Security Operations modernization.
• Experience developing executive dashboards, strategic performance metrics, and operational reporting.
• PMP, CISSP, CISM, CGRC (formerly CAP), or other relevant cybersecurity or leadership certifications.
