  • Design and execute advanced product demonstrations and proof-of-concepts, translating strict compliance and technical mandates into defensible, outcome-driven solutions
  • Provide technical leadership on major federal programs and procurement actions, authoring and reviewing high-impact RFI and RFP responses to ensure architectural integrity and technical differentiation
  • Guide customers through security visibility and observability integrations, ensuring seamless telemetry pipelines with existing enterprise SIEM, SOAR, and XDR platforms
  • Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, and the Office of the CTO to deliver structured feedback from the field, ensuring future product roadmaps align with evolving federal defense requirements
  • Serve as a technical mentor to mid-level and junior Systems Engineers across the broader team, raising the overall technical capability and readiness of the organization
  • Demonstrate operational autonomy across accounts and regions, maintaining the flexibility to support customer schedules and mission-critical engagements when national security priorities demand it

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in systems engineering, solution architecture, or technical leadership within the cybersecurity or network security domains
  • Demonstrated success supporting DoD, Federal Civilian, or highly regulated industries, with a clear understanding of the federal acquisition lifecycle
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience
  • Significant military technical leadership experience (such as senior non-commissioned officer roles in cyber or communications branches) is highly valued and recognized as equivalent experience
  • DoD 8140/8570 compliance is highly desirable
  • Preferred advanced professional certifications include CISSP, CCSP, JNCIE, GIAC, or relevant vendor-specific credentials
  • An active federal security clearance is preferred but not required at the time of hire
