Zero Trust Architect, Senior

The Opportunity:

Everyone knows security needs to be “baked in” to 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 engineering skills to design and build secure systems for critical missions? We’re looking for a cybersecurity engineer with zero trust (ZT) experience who can create solutions for the national-level clients that will stand up to even the most advanced cyber threats.

As a cybersecurity architect, you will be part of the architecture and design efforts of innovative cybersecurity solutions and service offerings to protect information systems and networks. You will coordinate with a dynamic team of thought leaders and experts to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate client IT needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions. We need to come up with the best solution, so you will investigate new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. You will lead the team through a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and mission needs. Your technical expertise will be vital as you help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by leading cybersecurity technologies and domains, including IoT and cloud security, automation and orchestration (A&O), identity and access management, and machine learning. Join our team as we tackle cybersecurity challenges around ZT and shape opportunities to implement solutions and service offerings leveraging investments and proven capabilities.
