- Defining requirements, evaluating solutions, and developing mobile and wireless cyber security architectures.
- Applying zero trust principles to develop pilots and proofs-of-concept for access to multi-cloud sponsor environments.
- Defining requirements, evaluating solutions, developing architectures, and conducting operational pilots of multi-cloud, identity, access, and credential management capabilities.
- Building advanced cybersecurity testbed environments for researching, developing, operationalizing, evaluating, and improving advanced analytics capabilities for detecting and responding to modern cyber threats.
- Exploring emerging topics in cybersecurity related to internet of things and industrial control systems, quantum computing, and designing and testing solutions for securing those devices.
- Conducting software assurance testing and analysis to identify software weaknesses that constitute vulnerabilities or deliberate supply chain compromise.
- Conducting cyber mission dependency, criticality, and adversary analyses to inform design of resilient architectures.
Basic Qualifications:
- Typically requires a minimum of 8 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Industrial Engineering or a related field; or 6 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with 3 years’ experience; or equivalent combination of related education and work experience.
- Experience in one or more areas listed under work responsibilities.
- In particular, experience in these technical areas is highly desired:
- a) Defining requirements, developing cloud security architectures, and evaluating security solutions for different cloud deployment models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS)
- b) Defining requirements, developing architectures, and evaluating solutions for securing enterprise cloud-based services (e.g., e-mail, DNS, ICAM, etc.), and c) Developing and operationalizing cyber sensor and cyber analytics architectures to enable more efficient and effective cybersecurity operations, threat-hunting, and cyber forensics
- Applicants selected for this position will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.
