requiring enterprise-level attention.\nIncorporate Department of Defense, DHRA, Government, and open-source threat information into assessments of the enterprise cybersecurity risk posture.\nAssess the relationship between identified technical vulnerabilities and relevant threat activity to improve prioritization of remediation efforts.\nDevelop actionable recommendations for vulnerability

stakeholders with clear visibility into enterprise risk, significant findings, trends, and recommended actions.\nSupport cybersecurity scanning, mitigation, compliance analysis, and assessment of adherence to Government cybersecurity standards and requirements.\nEvaluate cybersecurity products, capabilities, configurations, and technical approaches as required to support enterprise risk-reduction activities.\nPerform senior-level troubleshooting and analysis of complex cybersecurity issues that require coordination across system owners, cybersecurity personnel, engineers, administrators, and other technical stakeholders.\nReview technical findings and supporting evidence to ensure cybersecurity risks and compliance issues are accurately characterized before escalation or reporting.\nSupport development of technical briefings, analytical products, and recommendations for Government cybersecurity and program leadership.\nTrack significant cybersecurity findings and risk-reduction recommendations to support visibility into remediation progress and continuing areas of concern.\nBasic Qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related technical discipline and 10 or more years of relevant cybersecurity experience.\nSignificant experience performing cybersecurity analysis, information assurance, vulnerability analysis, cybersecurity compliance, or enterprise risk assessment.\nExperience correlating information from multiple cybersecurity data sources to identify and prioritize enterprise security risks.\nExperience analyzing vulnerability-scanning results, intrusion-detection information, SIEM data, security-assessment findings, or comparable cybersecurity data.\nExperience identifying vulnerabilities, security misconfigurations, and deviations from approved security baselines.\nExperience evaluating cybersecurity findings based on technical severity, exploitability, threat information, and mission impact.\nExperience developing risk-reduction, mitigation, and cybersecurity-compliance recommendations.\nWorking knowledge of Department of Defense cybersecurity requirements, security standards, and enterprise cybersecurity practices.\nExperience developing technical analysis, recurring cybersecurity reports, executive summaries, or risk-posture assessments.\nAbility to communicate complex cybersecurity risk and technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical Government stakeholders.\nActive Secret security clearance required.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience supporting Department of Defense cybersecurity programs or large Federal enterprise environments.\nExperience conducting enterprise cybersecurity risk and compliance analysis across multiple systems or authorization boundaries.\nExperience integrating vulnerability, threat, security-monitoring, and compliance information into a consolidated assessment of cybersecurity posture.\nExperience developing recurring cybersecurity risk, compliance, vulnerability, or executive-level reporting.\nExperience with enterprise vulnerability-scanning, intrusion-detection, SIEM, and cybersecurity assessment capabilities.\nExperience supporting Tier 3 cybersecurity analysis or troubleshooting.\nFamiliarity with the Department of Defense Risk Management Framework and continuous-monitoring processes.\nExperience providing cybersecurity recommendations directly to Government technical or program leadership.\nFamiliarity with DHRA, DMDC, or comparable Department of Defense enterprise environments.\n\nIf you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling.
