This position requires innovative thinking balanced with a strong customer obsession and a focus on quality and delivering results. This position also requires extensive knowledge and experience in managing security programs in compliance with 32 CFR Part 117 (NISPOM) and Intelligence Community Directives (ICDs). New position created due to appropriately staff against customer requirements.

This position requires that the candidate selected be a U.S

citizen and must currently possess and maintain an active TS/SCI security clearance with polygraph.
Key job responsibilities
- Serve as the single point of accountability for executing all security activities required to support the contract, using program management skills to track internal and external meetings, RFIs, and action items in approved tools.

A day in the life
No two days as a Contract Security Lead look exactly alike. You might start by syncing with AWS Security and contract stakeholders to translate new customer requirements into concrete security activities, then host the recurring security alignment meeting to keep the program on track

Midday, you could be working an RFI, clearing a security obstacle with senior leadership, or coordinating with the FSO and DCSA on a facility matter. You will track every action and requirement in approved tools, partner with engineers and operations staff onsite, and stay ready to support alarms or incidents during shared on-call rotations.
