SalaryThe Opportunity:
Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud,” but not everyone knows how to secure it. As a cloud security architect, you know how to assess and implement requirements that ensure the safety of information systems and protect them against intentional or inadvertent access or destruction. What if you could use your cloud security skills to improve one of the largest software factories in the DoD? We need you to help us develop cloud-based security architectures for some of the most critical systems.
As a cloud security architect on our team, you’ll be responsible for operating, securing, and monitoring the cloud infrastructure, including system hardening, patching, and vulnerability management. You’ll recommend tools and capabilities based on your research of the current environment and knowledge of various on-premise, cloud-based, and hybrid resources to address the security posture of the infrastructure. Your technical experience will be vital as you work with other workstream teams to ensure standards are met with information assurance and security requirements.
This is an opportunity to use the latest cloud technologies as you look for ways to secure your customer’s environment. You’ll sharpen your skills in automation of security events, cloud-based security, and zero-trust architecture while building peace of mind in critical infrastructure.
Help us transform and secure the software delivery to a State-of-the-Art multirole warfighter with cloud technology.
