  • Support deployment of new cybersecurity solutions and upgrade existing toolsets.
  • Maintain secure configurations, backups, and documentation for all security tools.
  • Develop and maintain cybersecurity security plans, diagrams, and related artifacts.
  • Integrate SIEM data, ensuring logs and telemetry flow properly and support threat detection and incident response.
  • Support vulnerability scanning capabilities and defensive cyberspace operations infrastructure.
  • Maintain and update network architecture diagrams and configuration baselines.
  • Collaborate with cybersecurity, network, and incident response teams to ensure tool effectiveness and alignment with mission needs.

Here's what you need:

  • Bachelor’s degree in IT, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field; or 4 years additional equivalent work experience.
  • Minimum of 4 years of hands-on experience proposing, developing, installing, managing, maintaining, integrating, and configuring cybersecurity tools across enterprise environments.
  • Proficiency in threat detection and prevention tools, traffic segmentation controls, data rights management technologies, SIEM platforms, vulnerability scanning tools, and defensive cyberspace operations infrastructure.
  • Strong understanding of cybersecurity toolsets across environments such as CorpsNet, SIPRNet, cloud platforms, DMZs, and network boundaries.
  • Demonstrated ability to maintain secure configurations, monitor performance, and contribute to new tool deployment.

Preferred Qualifications

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
