Job Description
Description
SAIC is seeking a technical Senior Information System Security Officer (ISSO) to support a critical U.S. government agency in the National Capital Region. This role reports to the Security Program Management Office (SPMO) Manager and works directly with team members and Federal ISSOs to support authorization, compliance, continuous monitoring, and risk management activities across assigned systems.

The successful candidate must be comfortable engaging engineers, architects, and system owners to validate security controls, identify inconsistencies, and challenge unsupported technical assumptions.
**This hybrid role requires a minimum of three on-site days per week in Washington, DC.**
