Responsibilities

  • Engineer and harden. Implement security architecture across classified enclaves, mission ground systems, and lab environments network segmentation, identity and access management, endpoint hardening, logging and audit, and encryption at rest and in transit.
  • Drive accreditation. Author and maintain SSPs, security control implementation statements, risk assessments, and POA&Ms. Take systems through RMF to ATO and ATC, then keep them compliant through continuous monitoring.
  • Defend the environment. Perform vulnerability scanning and remediation, patch management, log review and audit reduction, and triage of security events alongside the enterprise SOC.
  • Respond to incidents. Participate in the on-call rotation. Investigate, contain, and document incidents, and drive corrective actions to closure with system owners.
  • Automate the toil. Build the scripting and tooling that make compliance evidence, STIG application, and reporting repeatable rather than manual.
  • Support the mission directly. Work shoulder-to-shoulder with program engineers and system administrators to deliver secure systems on mission schedule — finding the compliant path to yes.
  • Raise the bar. Mentor junior engineers and analysts, and contribute to team standards, baselines, and accreditation playbooks.
