  • Deep expertise in modern cloud architecture (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and its native security controls (e.g., IAM, VPC), along with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), container (Kubernetes), and CI/CD pipelines; complemented by strong experience in Application Security, including vulnerability management and integrating SAST/DAST/SCA tools into the SDLC.
  • Demonstrated success in driving complex infrastructure and security initiatives (such as achieving compliance certifications, maturing incident response, or large-scale migrations) from conception to completion.
  • A strong track record of managing Cloud and Security budgets, including vendor contracts and controlling tool costs
  • Proven ability to partner with engineering leaders and product managers to champion security best practices across the organization
  • Experience in developing and executing a comprehensive and unified technical roadmap for both infrastructure and security, focused on enhancing scalability and reliability while maturing the organization's overall security posture.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

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.
