This position moves beyond traditional policy analysis to focus on the unique technical and security challenges of transferring diverse data types between disparate security domains.

• Assess and understand various complex data types (e.g., structured XML/JSON, streaming telemetry, full-motion video, imagery, and tactical data links) to determine appropriate CDS filtering, deep content inspection, and sanitization requirements.
• Design and integrate a comprehensive cross domain strategy that aligns with the organization's mission. Develop, staff, and publish policies that govern CDS operations, ensuring compliance with "Raise the Bar" (RTB) standards and the Risk Management Framework (RMF).
• Interpret and apply laws, statutes, and directives (e.g., CNSSI 1253, NIST 800-53, NCDSMO Guidelines) to create actionable security policies for CDS infrastructure, including guard technologies and filtering mechanisms.
• Define and integrate secure data transfer solutions for current and future mission environments, ensuring seamless and protected data flow across multiple classification levels (e.g., NIPR, SIPR, JWICS).
• Serve as a primary technical advisor on agency and interagency policy boards, advocating for robust CDS capabilities. Seek and build consensus with stakeholders on proposed changes to CDS architecture, rule sets, data schema validation, and security postures.
• Monitor the rigorous application of CDS policies and principles. Review, conduct, or participate in audits of cross domain programs and projects to ensure effectiveness and adherence to security controls.
• Advocate for and assess cyber workforce effectiveness related to cross domain skill sets. Promote awareness of CDS policy and strategy to ensure sound principles are reflected in the organization's mission.
• Partner with Cloud Architects and CDS Engineers to ensure that new cloud deployments and data flows meet security baseline requirements prior to entering production.

• Deep understanding of various data types, schemas, and network protocols, with the proven ability to define how these formats must be inspected, parsed, and safely transferred across domain boundaries without introducing risk.
• Expert ability to develop and implement security policy, plans, and strategy for Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) in compliance with DoD/IC laws, regulations, and standards.
• Deep understanding of secure network architecture, data filtering mechanisms, and the technical principles behind hardware and software guard technologies.
• Proven ability to analyze…
