  • Communicate technical risks, security requirements, and accreditation status clearly to government customers and program leadership, ensuring shared understanding and timely decision-making.


Qualifications

  • Active Secret security clearance
  • DoD 8570/8140 IAT Level II certification (CompTIA Security+ or equivalent)

  • Knowledge of the Integrated Tactical Warning and Attack Assessment (ITW/AA) mission set and associated enterprise
  • Expertise with RMF Rev 4 and Rev 5, including updated control implementations and evidence development
  • Prior experience repairing inherited ATO packages, improving documentation quality, and driving compliance maturity
