Cyber Systems Security Architect

Cyber Systems Security Architect

The Opportunity:

Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud”, but not everyone knows how. As a cloud computing application architect, you know how to create a cloud-based technical architecture that meets client needs and takes advantage of cloud capabilities. What if you could use your cloud architecture skills to improve national‐security mission systems protection across cloud, hybrid, and cross‐domain environments? We need you to help us develop cloud-based solutions for some of the Intelligence Community’s toughest problems.

On our team, you’ll lead the design and assessment of secure cloud, hybrid, and cross-domain architectures that protect mission‐critical workloads and ensure strong confidentiality and integrity across rapidly evolving Cloud Service Provider (CSP) environments. This is an opportunity to use the latest cloud technologies as you look for ways to improve your client’s environment using current cloud capabilities. Your technical expertise will be vital as you work with mission partners, engineering teams, and CSPs to inform strategy and design and ensure standards are met throughout the cloud modernization process.  

You’ll recommend tools and solutions based on your research of the current environment and knowledge of various on-premises, cloud-based, and hybrid resources. You’ll lead your team as they help the client overcome their most difficult challenges in the cloud. Additionally, you’ll broaden your skillset in areas like advanced cloud security, adversary-focused threat analysis, cross‐domain system evaluation, and below‐the‐waterline CSP security architectures while hardening critical systems for the Intelligence Community.
