  • Develop automated methods to monitor and measure risk and security compliance efforts.
  • Utilize automated cloud security posture assessment tools to continuously monitor the AWS environment for configuration drift, ensuring strict adherence to the Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide.
  • Leverage AI-assisted tools to ingest infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform) and system documentation to rapidly identify cybersecurity and compliance gaps.
  • Draft and brief statements of preliminary or residual cybersecurity risks for system operation.
  • Assess the design and effectiveness of existing security controls and work with solution and product development teams to identify, define, and document additional controls based on solution-specific or product-specific requirements.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of relevant Cybersecurity experience focusing on cybersecurity control assessment or implementation, penetration testing, or quality assurance testing.
  • Active IAT Level 2 certification (i.e., Security+ CE, CySA+, CND, CCNA Security)
  • Demonstrated experience conducting technical evaluations of information systems design, containerized applications, and cloud architecture.
  • Ability to communicate on technical subjects using clear, concise, non-technical language to include strong written communications, ability to provide written feedback on documents, and ability to prepare briefings.

US Citizenship and an active Top Secret security clearance.

Desired Qualifications

  • IAT Level 3 or higher certifications (e.g., CISSP, SecurityX, CCNP, CISA).
  • Experience with Terraform, OpenTofu, or other declarative IaC tools.
  • Understanding of container security (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker) and securing DevSecOps pipelines.
  • Demonstrated experience giving technical guidance to cloud engineers and system administrators.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
