ISSO

We are seeking an experienced ISSO to support our Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) managed service provider contract. This mid-level role calls for a highly autonomous, TOP SECRET-cleared cybersecurity professional who will serve as the cybersecurity point of contact and Information System Security Officer (ISSO) for key information systems within cleared environments.

You will help protect systems that support national security programs. You’ll own the security posture of your assigned systems from authorization through ongoing operations, making sure they stay compliant, monitored, and ready for assessment.

You will drive Risk Management Framework (RMF) activities end to end for your assigned systems, design and implement continuous monitoring plans, and run vulnerability management from identification through remediation, tracking every finding in POAMs. You’ll also be the go-to voice for system security reporting, keeping the ISO, ISSM, and customer leadership informed with clear, accurate, timely communication.

This role involves significant independent interaction with clients and stakeholders, including end customers and application development teams. You’ll serve as a senior escalation point, trusted to manage multiple systems and competing priorities at once, keep security work moving without close direction, and turn stakeholder challenges into practical solutions. Customer service and teamwork matters as much as technical depth.

Position Description (what you will do)

• Drive Risk Management Framework (RMF) activities for assigned information systems
• Design and implement system continuous monitoring plans
• Perform vulnerability management, drive remediation with system stakeholders, and manage Plans of Action and Milestones (POAMs)
• Serve as the key point of contact for system reporting and communications to the ISO, ISSM, and customer leadership, as applicable, delivering excellent customer support
• Work proactively across multiple systems and competing priorities
• Teamwork: ability to collaborate and adapt to support the success of the broader team and the Mission.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to identify challenges and implement solutions

• Active Top Secret clearance (required)
• Must be eligible for DCSA Personnel Assurance Program enrollment
• CompTIA Security+ (DoD 8570 IAT Level II minimum)
• Bachelor’s Degree
• 6+ years of relative experience
• Highly Autonomous Operation: Demonstrated capability to operate fully independently as a senior escalation point, interacting directly with end customers, stakeholders, and application development teams to drive Risk Management Framework (RMF) and cyber compliance strategies in support of high-visibility initiatives
• Experience owning cybersecurity, RMF and compliance for DOD or federal government information systems as an ISSE or ISSO

Nice to Have:

• Working knowledge of Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Azure Government cloud environments and cloud security
• Experience supporting tier-3 system RMF activities in an Information System Security Officer (ISSO) capacity for federal cloud-based systems
• Professional-level cybersecurity certifications (e.g., CISSP, CASP, CISM, etc.) and/or cloud AWS or Azure certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect)
• Prior experience serving as an ISSE or ISSO in a DoD or DCSA environment.

Our team is always hungry for more - more knowledge, more problem solving, more growth, more innovation, and, ultimately, customer success. This hunger and hustle fuel our determination to excel in everything we do. It’s not just about meeting established goals; it’s about exceeding them. We take immense pride in applying our expertise in cutting-edge technologies and our ability to adapt to emerging trends directly to the users in the field, as our nation’s protectors deserve nothing less.
