Cybersecurity Engineer - Cloud

SAIC is a trusted leader in delivering advanced command and control capabilities across the Department of the Air Force.

We bring deep expertise in engineering, securing, and deploying cutting-edge technologies that support mission-critical operations.

In partnership with the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics, SAIC supports programs that unify data, sensors, mission applications, cloud-based services, and emerging AI-enabled automation.

These efforts empower warfighters with a decisive edge, transforming complex, multidomain information into fast, clear, and actionable decisions when it matters most.

As part of this team, you will help accelerate the integration, testing, security, and transition of new capabilities into operational use.

You will work side by side with operators, engineers, Capability Providers, and government teams to ensure every delivery strengthens mission readiness.

This role offers the opportunity to directly shape how the Air Force sees, decides, and acts across all domains—making a tangible and immediate impact on warfighter effectiveness.

The Cybersecurity Engineer (Cloud) secures and accredits multi tenant cloud environments (Dev, Integration, Test).

The role implements JSIG/NIST/STIG baselines, engineers secure multi classification cloud designs, validates Capability Provider and External cyber artifacts, and ensures all required evidence is provided to the Infrastructure TO for Baseline updates.

The Cybersecurity Engineer (Cloud) develops RMF/ATO packages for cloud environments, partners closely with DSOP, Platform, CE, and Cloud SMEs, and contributes hands on effort to early DSOP/cloud design and environment build out.

• Build and secure multi‐tenant cloud environments.
• Implement JSIG, NIST SP 800‐53, STIG, and MLS/MILS baselines across Dev/Integration/Test cloud enclaves.
• Own RMF/ATO packages for cloud environments, producing SSP, POA&M, and full RMF evidence.
• Validate STIG, ACAS/Nessus, SAST/DAST, and container‐security outputs prior to environment promotion.
• Perform functional validation of CP/External cyber artifacts; coordinate delivery of validated evidence to Infrastructure TO.
• Maintain cloud‐aligned continuous monitoring, including audit logs, cloud telemetry, and Prometheus/Grafana security metrics.
• Support Cloud + DSOP joint early design efforts; collaborate to integrate pipeline‐aware cloud security.
• Validate IaC/CaC baselines (Terraform, Ansible, Helm) for secure, consistent cloud deployments and promotion gates.
• Provide cyber recommendations during CCB promotion evaluations.
• Offer WHY‐based guidance and vector checks to Capability Providers and team members.
