  • Develop and maintain software security patterns to enable security/compliance/privacy-by-default engineering, such as: secure coding and configuration standards, code snippets/templates for Infrastructure as Code, hardening of containerized applications, etc. 
  • Lead automation and integration of vulnerability management tooling across artifact repositories, container registries, as well as other components of development and build pipelines. 
  • Triage vulnerability and compliance testing results for technical implications, validate their applicability, determine exposure in a system/component context, and generate user stories for remediation efforts. 
  • Contribute to development and implementation of technical compliance strategies across cloud infrastructure and system components (such as, recommended configurations for FIPS-validated crypto providers and segmentation of network-based information flows). 
  • Contribute to hardening efforts of development and QA environments, and the implementation of quality gates and security test suites across development pipelines. 
  • Maintain architecture-/engineering-level threat models for system components in active cooperation with engineering teams. 
  • Identify and describe application-specific security monitoring use cases for security monitoring & response purposes. 
  • Propose updates to security and privacy controls documentation (such as, System Security Plans, authorization boundary diagrams, and data inventories) to ensure system architecture and functions are accurately represented. 
  • Participate in ceremonies across multiple scrum teams to provide insights and capture concerns and needs related to application security, privacy, and compliance. 

 

Qualifications: 

  • Must be a US Citizen or US Permanent Resident  
  • 5+ years' experience in software engineering (with a focus on backend). 
  • Proficient in understanding and explaining the ins and outs of software vulnerabilities across stacks, their potential impact when exploited, and how to mitigate them.

  • Proficient in the security management of cloud infrastructure services and container-based deployments (preferably, AWS and Kubernetes). 
  • Proficient in the management of software supply chain security and software security vulnerabilities. 
  • Proficient in expressing the concepts, practical application, and typical implementation of identity & access management, applied cryptography, network security, and related security domains. 
  • Proficient in expressing implementation requirements for security work in engineering-facing user stories. 
  • Common sense, and proficient in concisely articulating both technical risk and the pros & cons of proposed solutions to decision makers and peers. 
  • Experience with modern CI/CD pipelines, scrum-based software engineering practices, and rapid prototyping of solutions. 
  • Experience with the automation of security and compliance processes, integration of security tooling cross development lifecycles, and centralized management of security findings. 
  • Experience in interpreting security and compliance frameworks and standards. 
  • Experience with application security testing tools and techniques, and with demonstrating/validating the exploitability of vulnerabilities.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
