Job Description

Cloud Security Architect

The Challenge:

Everyone is trying to "harness the power of the Cloud," but not everyone knows how. As a Cloud architect, you know how to build a Cloud-based technical architecture that meets customer needs and takes advantage of Cloud capabilities. What if you could use your Cloud architecture skills to improve Cloud security for our federal clients? We need you to help us develop security protocols for Cloud-based solutions to address our client's toughest challenges.

As a Cloud security architect on our team, you'll be supporting Cybersecurity programs for public Cloud solutions. You'll recommend tools and capabilities based on your research of the current environment and knowledge of various on premise, Cloud-based, and hybrid resources. You'll learn how to help customers overcome their most difficult challenges in Cloud migration from an experienced team. You'll work with our federal clients to ensure standards are met as you guide them through Cloud migration and security protocols. This is an opportunity to use the latest Cloud technologies as you look for ways to improve your customer's environment using current Cloud capabilities. You'll be able to build your experience in Cloud-based security while developing critical systems for our federal and commercial clients. We focus on growing as a team to make the best solutions for our customers, so you'll have resources for mentoring and learning new skills and tools. Join our team as we transform our client's technology vision with Cloud technology.

Empower change with us.
