Integrate security into DevSecOps pipelines and CI/CD workflows to enable secure-by-design development practices
Collaborate with engineering, operations, and program management teams to embed cybersecurity requirements throughout the system lifecycle

Lead incident response planning and support security operations for cloud-hosted mission systems
