Cross Domain Solution Engineer, Senior

The Opportunity:

Everyone knows security needs to be “baked in” to a system architecture, but you know how to bake it in. You can identify and implement ways to harden systems and reduce their attack surface. What if you could use your cross-domain knowledge and skills to lead the design and building of secure systems for Navy and tactical weapons systems? We’re looking for a Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) Engineer who can create solutions for the Navy that will stand up to even the most advanced cyber threats.

As a CDS Engineer on our project, you’ll interpret technical guidance, analyze mission requirements, and recommend effective solutions to cross domain challenges throughout the Navy, Marine Corps, and Special Operations. We need the best solution, so you’ll advise on new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. You’ll lead the team through a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and mission needs. You’ll be able to broaden your skillset into areas like edge computing and airborne sensor data while building peace of mind in a critical capability. Become a senior engineer on our team as we improve cross domain data transfer for the Navy through cybersecurity.

Join us. The world can’t wait. 

You Have: 

• 5+ years of experience with the design, engineering, integration, implementation, testing, and deployment of the infrastructure, hardware, and software that are required to effectively manage the security and risk posture of cross domain systems and resources

• Secret clearance
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, IT, Information Assurance (IA), Systems Engineering, or Network Architecture and Design

Nice If You Have:
