Everyone knows security needs to be “baked in” to a system architecture, but you know how to bake it in. You can identify and implement ways to harden systems and reduce their attack surface. What if you could use your cyber cross‑domain knowledge and skills to lead the design and development of secure systems for the U.S. Air Force? We’re looking for a seasoned Cybersecurity Lead who can create solutions for our clients that will withstand even the most advanced cyber threats.

As a Cybersecurity Team Lead at Booz Allen, you’ll interpret technical requirements, analyze mission requirements, and lead the delivery of effective technical solutions to cybersecurity challenges on enterprise government networks. You’ll coordinate work with government officials, cyber professionals, and technical domain experts to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer’s IT needs and goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions.

You’ll advise on new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. You’ll guide the team through a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and mission needs.

This is a chance to lead a team to make a difference in the security of mission‑critical systems. You’ll oversee efforts to help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by integrating secure practices across their enterprise systems. You’ll broaden your skillset into areas like integrating and using the latest cybersecurity tools and practices while building peace of mind in a critical infrastructure.

As a technical leader, you’ll identify new opportunities to use cybersecurity solutions to help your customers meet their toughest challenges.
