We bring deep expertise in engineering, securing, and deploying cutting-edge technologies that support mission-critical operations. In partnership with the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics, SAIC supports programs that unify data, sensors, mission applications, cloud-based services, and emerging AI-enabled automation. These efforts empower warfighters with a decisive edge, transforming complex, multidomain information into fast, clear, and actionable decisions when it matters most. As part of this team, you will help accelerate the integration, testing, security, and transition of new capabilities into operational use. You will work side by side with operators, engineers, Capability Providers, and government teams to ensure every delivery strengthens mission readiness. This role offers the opportunity to directly shape how the Air Force sees, decides, and acts across all domains-making a tangible and immediate impact on warfighter effectiveness.\nThe Cybersecurity Engineer (DSOP) builds and operates a secure DSOP pipeline to enable rapid, safe development and onboarding of Capability Provider applications. This role integrates automated SAST/DAST/container security and SBOM/SCA scanning, enforces secure coding gates, validates cyber artifacts, and ensures all pipeline evidence is routed to Infrastructure TO for Operational Baseline updates. The DSOP Engineer provides direct developer support, jointly participates in early DSOP/cloud design, and lays the foundation for secure-by-default CI/CD automation.\nJob Duties include:\nBuild, enhance, and operate DSOP cyber pipeline stages (SAST, DAST, container scanning, SBOM/SCA).\nImplement pipeline blocking rules for Critical/High vulnerabilities.\nIntegrate cyber validation tasks into CI/CD for multiple environments.\nPerform functional validation of CP/External artifacts when possible; deliver validated cyber outputs to Infrastructure TO.\nProduce RMF/cATO-ready cyber evidence (scan results, mitigation records, SBOM/SCA, logs).\nValidate artifact integrity (image signing, checksum enforcement, provenance tracking).\nProvide direct developer enablement: onboarding into DSOP tools, secure coding guidance, WHY-based mentorship.\nReview, categorize, and drive remediation of CWE/CVE findings across DSOPS, Cloud, CE, and CP teams.\nValidate rollback readiness when cyber gates block promotion.\nPartner with Cloud engineers on early pipeline/environment design and promote secure-by-default automation. \n Bachelors and nine (9) years or more experience; Masters and seven (7) years or more experience; PhD or JD and four (4) years or more experience.\nUS Citizenship.\nRequired Qualifications & Experience:\nHands on experience running automated SAST/DAST/container scans using Fortify, ZAP, Grype/Trivy or similar tools.\nExperience documenting mitigations, reviewing CWE/CVE outputs, and validating secure coding practices. \nProficiency with DevSecOps tooling (GitLab CI/CD, container registries, SBOM/SCA tools). \nExperience supporting secure coding compliance and vulnerability remediation. \n8140 aligned certifications such as Security+, CISSP, CCSP, CASP+, or equivalent.\nDesired Qualifications and Experience:\nExperience supporting RMF/cATO pipelines-producing cyber evidence, aligning pipeline scans with SSP/POA&M updates. \nBackground integrating secure DevSecOps automation across multi classification environments. \nExperience enabling developers by creating training, guidance, and best practice workflows.\nDesired Skills and Certifications:\nDeep experience with GitLab CI/CD, image signing, SBOM/SCA creation, and pipeline compliance validation. \nFamiliarity with secure by design and shift left security principles embedded across DSOP automation. \nStrong communication habits-providing timely vector checks, developer friendly guidance, and clear evidence trails.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4009,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":9,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cybersecurity","Information Security","Digital Government","Engineering Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-08T12:16:30Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":14,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.409,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":36,"expected_fill_days":12,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:tail","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/saic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/saic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T19:30:34Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":6368,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":58788},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=58788"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsaic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsaic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsaic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/saic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsaic-cybersecurity-engineer-dsop"}]}
