The posting

Fortreum is a trusted leader in cloud and cybersecurity services, ranked among the Top 5 FedRAMP Third Party Assessment Organizations (3PAO). With the addition of Kovr.AI, we have expanded our capabilities to include advanced cyber risk quantification and analytics, enabling organizations to better understand, measure, and communicate risk. Together, we deliver independent, third-party, vendor-agnostic regulatory assessment and advisory services, alongside advanced cybersecurity offensive and compliance technical solutions. Our comprehensive service portfolio spans regulatory compliance frameworks including FedRAMP, CMMC, FISMA, SOC, PCI, ISO, and HIPAA.

Working with Fortune 500 companies and leading cloud service providers, we’ve built our reputation on service-delivery excellence and an unwavering commitment to client success. Our continued rapid growth creates exceptional opportunities for driven professionals to make their mark in the cybersecurity industry—guided by our core values: quality above all, a customer-driven mindset, autonomy, and personal accountability.

Fortreum is transforming how compliance gets done through the Kovr AI Platform — our AI-native compliance automation solution. In the age of agentic AI, Kovr applies intelligent, autonomous workflows to the assessment and authorization lifecycle, turning slow, manual, evidence-heavy compliance work into a faster, repeatable, and more reliable process. By automating artifact generation, evidence and control mapping, and continuous validation across frameworks such as FedRAMP, CMMC, SOC, ISO, and HIPAA, the platform dramatically compresses assessment timelines and is setting a new standard for how organizations achieve and sustain compliance.

As a DevSecOps Engineer, you will embed with enterprise and federal customers to deploy, integrate, and operationalize the Kovr AI Platform within their environments—building integrations with their DevSecOps toolchains, automating evidence collection and continuous monitoring, and configuring compliance workflows that accelerate Authority to Operate (ATO). You will serve as the hands-on technical bridge between our customers and Kovr’s engineering team, solving complex deployment challenges across cloud, hybrid, and classified National Security and Intelligence Community (IC) environments..

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
