- DevSecOps & Cyber Hygiene: Embed network‐security controls into the PG DevSecOps pipeline; champion zero‐trust principles and continuous ATO artifacts (RMF eMASS packages, ACAS/SCAP scans). Guide implementation of Software Defined Networking (SD‐WAN, OpenFlow, or comparable) for dynamic airborne/ground path selection.
- Fielding & Operations: Partner with platform SPOs and flight‐test organizations to translate lab configs into flight‐worthy builds; draft Interim Authorizations To Test (IATT) and airworthiness network annexes. Support Watch help‐desk playbooks, operational runbooks, and remote monitoring dashboards (Elastic, Grafana, Prometheus).

- Demonstrated experience with cross‐domain solutions, NSA Type‐1 crypto, and multi‐level security architectures.
- Hands-on with network test/validation tools and scripting/automation (Python, Ansible, Terraform) Preferred or Nice-to-have Skills
- CCNP/CCIE, JNCIE, or equivalent expert-level certification
- Prior work on CJADC2, ABMS, OMS/UCI, tactical data links (Link-16/22, TTNT), or airborne networking programs
- Familiarity with containerized networking (CNI plugins, Service Mesh) and classified DevSecOps pipelines (Platform One, Iron Bank)
- Experience with Agile/Scrum or SAFe certification
- Experience shepherding RMF packages through eMASS to full ATO Years of Experience: 8 years Industry Experience: DoD or IC mission-critical IP networks, with a focus on airborne networking and SATCOM.
