FedRAMP Security Consultant

Delivery / Technical Project Manager - Security & Compliance Programs About the Role: We are modernizing our vulnerability management program to meet the FedRAMP 2026 Vulnerability Detection & Response (VDR) and Vulnerability Evaluation & Reporting (VER) requirements, which become mandatory December 7, 2026 under CISA BOD 26-04. This is a high-visibility, deadline-driven program touching security engineering, DevOps, GRC, and executive stakeholders. The Technical Project Manager serves as the connective tissue across all workstreams - an overlay resource who keeps four specialized engineers, internal platform teams, and business stakeholders aligned and moving toward a fixed regulatory deadline. Responsibilities:

• Own day-to-day program management for a ~16-week implementation with a fixed, non-negotiable compliance cutover date
• Serve as the primary liaison between the implementation team, internal security/platform/DevOps teams, and business stakeholders; run weekly steering sessions and executive readouts
• Build and maintain the integrated project plan across two parallel workstreams (platform/integration build and evaluation/reporting/controls), tracking dependencies, milestones, and the critical path to the December 7 deadline
• Track SLAs, risks, and blockers; escalate early and drive resolution across teams that don’t report to you
• Coordinate access, environments, change windows, and internal approvals so engineers stay unblocked
• Manage scope against the ~22 VDR/VER requirements; maintain a control-to-requirement traceability view of “done”
• Coordinate the parallel-run and cutover from the legacy scanning toolchain to the new consolidated platform, including training and handoff to internal teams
• Prepare status reporting suitable for both engineering audiences and executive/audit audiences

• 5+ years of technical project/program management experience delivering infrastructure, security, or platform engineering projects
• Demonstrated success delivering projects with hard external deadlines (regulatory, contractual, or launch-driven)
• Ability to work fluently with engineers - comfortable discussing CI/CD pipelines, API integrations, cloud environments, and scanning tools at a working level
• Strong stakeholder management: experience aligning security, engineering, and business leadership with competing priorities
• Excellent risk management instincts; a track record of surfacing problems weeks before they become schedule threats

Strongly Preferred:

• Direct experience with FedRAMP programs (ATO processes, 3PAO assessments, continuous monitoring, POA&M management) or other federal compliance frameworks (FISMA, CMMC, StateRAMP)
• Prior delivery of security tooling implementations (vulnerability management, SIEM, CNAPP, ASPM/aggregation platforms)
• Familiarity with the 2026 FedRAMP VDR/VER rule changes and CISA BOD 26-04
• PMP, PMI-ACP, or equivalent; experience running hybrid onshore/offshore delivery teams
