  • Automation & Orchestration: Develop automation scripts and tools to integrate security into all aspects of development, testing, and deployment processes. Ensure security best practices are followed within the DevSecOps lifecycle.
  • Incident Response: Lead efforts in securing systems during incidents, including conducting forensic analysis, coordinating responses, and ensuring systems are returned to operational status with appropriate remediations.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with federal development, operations, and security teams to foster a security-first culture and ensure security is embedded in every aspect of system development and deployment.
  • Documentation and Reporting: Prepare detailed technical documentation for systems, processes, and configurations. Provide clear and concise reports to federal stakeholders on security posture, incidents, and compliance with federal standards.

    • Strong background in log collection and analysis using tools like Splunk, identifying security anomalies and responding appropriately.
    • Experience in cloud platforms (AWS GovCloud, Azure Government) and containerized environments (Kubernetes, Docker).
    • Knowledge of IaC tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and security automation tools.
  • Clearance:

    • Experience with cloud security, container security, and DevSecOps practices within highly classified environments (IL5 to IL6+).
    • Strong understanding of network protocols, operating systems, and infrastructure components, particularly as they relate to secure DevSecOps implementations.
  • Incident Response:
    • Proficient in incident response and forensic analysis techniques, ensuring rapid recovery from security incidents while maintaining system integrity.
  • Communication Skills:
    • Excellent communication skills, capable of conveying complex security concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
