The ideal candidate will possess deep expertise in DevSec practices, extensive familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, and hands-on experience in assessing software vulnerabilities and providing actionable risk recommendations. All applicants must currently possess an active U.S. Security Clearance.

  • Lead complex cybersecurity projects from inception to completion, ensuring high-quality deliverables are met within scope, timeline, and budget.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for high-value clients, building strong relationships through frequent and transparent communication, understanding their security objectives, and translating requirements into actionable project plans.
  • Oversee the integration of cybersecurity principles into DevOps processes, promoting a 'security by design' framework throughout all development and operations cycles.
  • Champion DevSecOps methodologies by embedding security controls and automated testing within CI/CD pipelines, ensuring rapid, safe, and compliant code delivery.
  • Conduct and manage comprehensive assessments of software and infrastructure for security vulnerabilities using industry-standard tools and methodologies.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Engineering, or a related technical field or equivalent full-time professional experience.
  • 5+ years of experience as a Project Manager, Program Manager, ISSM, or Technical Lead in cybersecurity-focused projects, with a demonstrated history of direct, frequent engagement with enterprise and high-value customers.
  • Hands-on experience in a cybersecurity leadership role within DevOps or DevSecOps environments.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting DoD cybersecurity programs, including implementing and maintaining Authority to Operate (ATO) packages.
  • Extensive experience with the Risk Management Framework (RMF) process, including all six RMF steps.
  • Proficiency with eMASS (Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service) for managing RMF packages and ATO documentation.
  • Experience conducting system categorization, security control assessments, and working with security control baselines (e.g., NIST SP 800-53).
  • Solid understanding of secure software development lifecycles (SDLC), DevSecOps, and CI/CD pipeline automation tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps).
  • Expertise in identifying, analyzing, and remediating software vulnerabilities, including SAST, DAST, SCA, and penetration testing methodologies.
  • Experience making risk-based recommendations and communicating complex technical findings to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Knowledge of recent Navy cybersecurity efforts related to continuous ATO and cybersecurity processes, e.g. Rapid Assess and Incorporate Software Engineering (RAISE) and Afloat Software Authorization Playbook (ASAP)
  • Experience developing and delivering customer-focused security services or products in SaaS or cloud-first companies.
  • Track record of leading multi-disciplinary teams in a matrixed environment, including remote and distributed team members.
