Zero Trust Engineer
The Opportunity:
A well-designed network is critical to move data and enable the Department of Defense (DoD) to achieve their missions, but how can an organization make sure their network will fit their evolving needs? Crafting the right network, with the right equipment and software, requires a combination of technical skill and careful planning. That's why we need you, a seasoned Network Engineer who knows how to develop the exact network DoD needs.
As a Zero Trust Engineer on our project, you'll coordinate with a dynamic team of thought leaders and experts to design, develop, and deploy lab proof of concepts for new and emerging zero trust technologies. You'll develop and demo new capabilities to prospective clients. Your technical expertise will aid in developing analysis of alternatives by comparing vendor products. You'll develop reference architectures and engage with vendors to determine product capabilities and resolve lab issues. Join our team as we tackle cybersecurity challenges and shape opportunities to implement solutions and service offerings leveraging investments and proven capabilities.
