Meet the Team

We are the front line of security within the Department of War - Army as Cisco / Splunk trusted partners to our federal customers and guardians of the mission. We show up every day driven by duty, passion, and purpose, knowing the stakes are high and the room for error is none.

Our team is not built on titles or turf. It's built on trust, earned in the trenches. We specialize in security, but we also understand the broader mission landscape-working shoulder-to-shoulder with our Army Stakeholders, partners, and Cisco Counterparts to drive meaningful outcomes.

We operate like a special operations unit: elite, cohesive, and relentlessly passionate about the objective. Each team member brings deep subject-matter expertise, a bias for action, and a dedication to protecting what matters most.

We're not here to do business as usual-we're here to transform how the military secures its people, data, and infrastructure in an era of constant threat.

You will play a meaningful role in reshaping federal cybersecurity by identifying, enabling, and implementing strategies that strengthen the posture of our most vital agencies. You'll work in a sophisticated, supervised, and evolving market-and that's where we thrive.

Your impact is measured not just by revenue, but by resilience:

• You'll unlock new mission opportunities in restricted markets, navigating the terrain with precision and purpose.

• You'll be entrusted to lead in ambiguity-building trust, setting vision, and influencing outcomes across multiple stakeholders.

• You'll collaborate with the best-from engineers and bring together teams to external partners and executive sponsors-to deliver holistic, IL-compliant security solutions that matter.

We expect bold thinking, tactical execution, and servant leadership. If you want to build, lead, and defend-this is your team.
