The Cybersecurity System Analysis Group (CSAG) within NREL's Cybersecurity Research Center performs research cybersecurity research on integrated energy systems with the goal of building resiliency and reducing risk across the energy sector. This is primarily accomplished through engaging with various partners to model and simulate energy systems to conduct research. Research areas include threat to consequence risk analysis, hardware & software security, supply chain security, and testing and evaluation. Researchers within CSAG have the opportunity to drive NREL research in energy system security and advance a rapidly growing cybersecurity portfolio. Team members work to utilize and build capability of the best-in-class ARIES Cyber Range to deploy applicable largescale test environments, perform hardware-in-the-loop technology experiments, and collaborate with other laboratory and government partners. CSAG is seeking an experienced senior cybersecurity research and developer professional to lead various cybersecurity research portfolios relating to NREL's ARIES Cyber Range. The successful candidate will demonstrate a deep knowledge of full stack software development, offensive and defensive cybersecurity principals, as well as an ability to accomplish strategic and technical research objectives, directly task and coordinate on-site resources and individual contributors, collaborate with partners from across national labs, the Department of Energy, industry, and national security partners. Key Research Responsibilities: Researcher VI Define and build the technical capabilities of the ARIES Cyber Range in order to advance modeling and simulation capabilities, reference architectures, threat-to-consequence analysis, and testing and evaluation. Defines and advances the laboratory's strategic research vision for cybersecurity of critical infrastructure and energy systems. Leads the conception, design, and execution of complex, multi-organizational, or multi-disciplinary projects. Develops new research directions, scientific approaches, or technologies that shape the state of the art, to include software tool development and R&D. Represent NREL as the technical leader for the ARIES Cyber Range as well as the principal investigator for other large projects and programs Drives proposal strategy, identifies new sponsor opportunities, and secures external funding through established relationships with DOE program offices (e.g., DOE CESER) and energy-sector partners. Represents the organization in national-level forums, panels, and collaborations. Provides mentorship and technical leadership to senior staff and serves as an advisor on organizational priorities. Advance rigor, innovation, and impact of NREL's cybersecurity research. Lead cyber business development efforts by aligning focus with the ARIES Cyber Range strategy. Researcher V Contribute to and enhance the technical capabilities of the ARIES Cyber Range in order to advance modeling and simulation capabilities, reference architectures, threat-to-consequence analysis, and testing and evaluation. Leads significant projects or research tasks, ensuring technical excellence, timely delivery, and effective coordination among team members. Represent NREL by being the technical lead for large projects and programs which includes establishing research plans and processes, performing hands-on research, tasking other technical researchers, and presenting research results. Contributes to the development of new methods, tools, and approaches, and provides mentorship to less experienced staff. Collaborates with sponsors, DOE program offices, and energy-sector stakeholders to execute funded projects. Support cyber business development efforts by aligning focus with the ARIES Cyber Range strategy. Build research collaborations with the energy industry, other DOE labs and national security partners. This position builds and develops novel cybersecurity research and research areas as it pertains to existing and emerging energy systems. Researchers are responsible for creating innovative solutions and applying technical expertise to deliver impactful research and development to aid the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure.
