## Description

Everyone is trying to "harness the cloud", but not everyone knows how to secure it. As a cloud security architect, you know how to assess and implement requirements that ensure the safety of information systems and protect them against intentional or inadvertent access or destruction. What if you could use your cloud security skills to improve one of the largest sof tware factories in the DoD? We need you to help us develop cloud-based security architectures for some of the most critical systems.

As a Cybersecurity Engineer on our team, you'll be responsible for operating, securing, and monitoring cloud infrastructure, including system hardening, patching, and vulnerability management. You'll be responsible for understanding and translating DoD requirements from the stakeholders to the technical teams, and ensuring solutions have met the requirements.

This is an opportunity to use the latest cloud technologies as you look for ways to secure your customer's environment. You'll sharpen your skills in automation of security events, cloud-based security, and Zero T rus t architecture while building peace of mind in critical infrastructure.

Help us transform and secure sof tware delivery to a state-of-the-art multirole warfighter with cloud technology.
