Job description

ACO Advanced Resilience is seeking experienced Technical SETA candidates to provide on-site support to the Advanced Resilience portfolio in the area of next-generation classified network development for enterprise-scale computing and operational functions. Successful candidates will provide expert technical advice and guidance to the government on all aspects of enhancing resilience and survivability against sophisticated cyber and physical threats.

Candidates will support development of authenticated, secure connections from untrusted devices in an untrusted environment, using traditional ICAM, biometrics, and novel sensing of the environment. Going beyond traditional VPN connections, this service would authenticate the end device, the user, and the environment to allow for private communication in public environments. This would be implemented on endpoints of many form factors that enable general purpose clients to connect to decentralized services across a wide variety of transport types and levels of service. The candidate will be responsible for coordinating meetings, assessing performer technical progress, projecting performer outcomes, and ensuring that project management best practices are followed by performers. The candidate will prepare and deliver technical reports, briefings, and presentations to government officials and technical stakeholders.

The ideal candidate should possess technical expertise and experience in network engineering of DOD classified networks, notably the design, implementation, operations, and maintenance of enterprise, tactical, or expeditionary communications networks. The candidate will evaluate emerging technologies, monitor development of novel solutions, and contribute to the development of resilient classified networks, services, endpoints, and architectures.
