Full Job Description

Take Your Cybersecurity Career to the Next Level

Are you an experienced cybersecurity professional who thrives on solving complex security incidents, hunting sophisticated threats, and uncovering the story behind a cyberattack?

This is an opportunity to step into a high-impact senior cybersecurity role where your expertise in incident response, threat hunting, cyber forensics, malware analysis, and network security will directly support the protection of critical enterprise environments.

You will work on complex, high-severity cybersecurity incidents, leverage advanced security technologies and intelligence sources, and provide technical leadership to other cybersecurity professionals. This role offers the opportunity to work alongside federal agencies and cybersecurity organizations while continuing to expand your technical expertise and leadership capabilities.

If you are ready for a role where you can make an impact, solve challenging cybersecurity problems, mentor others, and continue to grow professionally, we would like to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

Lead advanced incident detection, analysis, response, containment, eradication, and recovery activities for complex and high-severity cybersecurity incidents.
Perform proactive threat hunting using behavioral analytics, SIEM correlation, threat intelligence, and advanced detection methodologies.
Conduct comprehensive cyber forensic investigations, including host, network, endpoint, malware, and digital evidence analysis.
Analyze, synthesize, evaluate, interpret, and integrate information from multiple security, intelligence, and operational data sources to identify emerging threats and attack patterns.
Fuse computer network attack analysis with cyber threat intelligence, counterintelligence, and law enforcement information to support incident investigations, attribution, and response activities.
Develop and maintain detection analytics, SIEM use cases, correlation rules, automation scripts, and SOAR playbooks to improve detection, response, and operational efficiency.
Perform network traffic packet analysis, protocol analysis, log analysis, malicious software analysis, and email security analysis to identify indicators of compromise and adversary tactics.
Support information risk management and information systems risk assessment activities by identifying cybersecurity risks, vulnerabilities, and recommended mitigation strategies.
Support and enhance enterprise security technologies, including Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) capabilities.
Provide technical leadership, guidance, and mentorship to Tier 1 and Tier 2 analysts in cyber threat analysis, incident response, and security operations.
Collaborate with federal agencies, including CISA, US-CERT, law enforcement, and counterintelligence organizations, during complex cybersecurity investigations.
Support M-21-31 logging maturity initiatives through log validation, normalization, correlation, and visibility improvements across enterprise systems.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, Information Assurance, or a related field.
Active Top Secret Clearance
Eight (8) or more years of professional experience in cybersecurity operations, incident response, malware analysis, cyber forensics, or network security.
Demonstrated experience in network security architecture, incident detection and response, malware analysis, and cyber forensics.
Experience analyzing, synthesizing, evaluating, interpreting, and integrating information from multiple intelligence and security data sources.
Experience providing technical guidance and mentorship to cybersecurity personnel.
Experience supporting investigations involving cyber threat intelligence, counterintelligence, and law enforcement organizations.
Demonstrated experience with information security, information risk management, and information systems risk assessment.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This is more than a traditional security operations position. You will have the opportunity to work on advanced cybersecurity challenges, contribute to enterprise-wide security improvements, and collaborate with organizations at the forefront of the federal cybersecurity mission.

The position is particularly well suited for a cybersecurity professional who wants to:

Take ownership of complex, high-severity security incidents
Expand expertise in advanced threat detection and threat hunting
Conduct sophisticated cyber forensic and malware investigations
Work with multiple intelligence and security data sources
Develop advanced SIEM, SOAR, detection, and automation capabilities
Provide technical leadership and mentorship
Gain exposure to federal cybersecurity, intelligence, counterintelligence, and law enforcement operations
Continue developing both technical and leadership skills
