  • Strong organizational skills, extreme attention to detail, and excellent analytical capabilities to handle large volumes of compliance data.
  • Experience working across a large team to drive a security agenda and working with complex, intertwined systems and operational data flows.
  • Experience creating, maintaining, and communicating complex technical documentation, particularly workflow tracking and security framework mapping.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Agile or Scrum certifications, such as Certified Scrum Master (CSM), Professional Scrum Master (PSM), or SAFe certification.
  • Direct experience transforming raw audit or compliance exports into structured, highly technical development backlogs.
  • Strong understanding of flow-based metrics, cycle time, and throughput to optimize team velocity and compliance delivery.
  • Self-starter with excellent people skills who is able to work across teams, organize meetings/boards, and drive change throughout an organization.

Clearance Requirements:

  • Current/Active TS/SCI Required. 
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a Polygraph.

Physical Requirements:

  • Must be able to remain in a stationary position 50% of the time.
