Job Description & How to Apply Below

Cyber Sheath Services International LLC is a rapidly growing Managed Services Provider primarily focused on providing Cybersecurity services to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). We are excited to be expanding our staff due to our growth and are looking to add an additional Compliance Analyst to our team! Cyber Sheath integrates compliance and threat mitigation efforts and eliminates redundant security practices that don’t improve and, in fact, may weaken an organization’s security posture.

Our professionals tell clients where to stop spending, where to invest, and how to take what they are already doing and integrate it in a way that delivers improved security. Successful candidates for Cyber Sheath are self‑motivated, think out of the box, work, and solve issues independently. Additionally, our most successful people are self‑stanners and willing to put on many hats in order to succeed.

Cyber Sheath is fast‑growing and seeks candidates who want to be part of our upward trajectory.

Opportunity Overview

As a Sr. Compliance Analyst, you will own all aspects of cybersecurity compliance for your assigned clients within Cyber Sheath’s Managed Compliance Services. You will lead compliance efforts and provide oversight for the implementation of cybersecurity frameworks, manage client relationships, and ensure continuous compliance with industry regulations. Your role will be pivotal in delivering compliance solutions to DIB contractors in accordance with DFARS 252.204‑7012, NIST SP 800‑171, and CMMC.

You will collaborate closely with client technical teams and third‑party vendors to ensure compliance and mitigate risks across the entire security landscape.
