Key skills for this role
We’re looking for a cybersecurity engineer to work the security side of software delivery on a large Navy readiness reporting program.
You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the development teams - finding vulnerabilities early, driving fixes into the code and the pipeline, and helping build security into how software gets designed, built, tested, and deployed.
This is a hands-on engineering role.
You’ll run and tune the security testing, chase findings to closure, and help keep the codebase and its dependencies clean.
You’ll work under the Cybersecurity Lead Engineer and should have a strong understanding of the Risk Management Framework (RMF) to ensure your work remains aligned with the program’s security posture, while the Cybersecurity Lead Engineer retains ownership of the ATO packages.
