Job description

**This position is contingent upon contract award** SOSi is seeking a Security & Compliance Analyst to support mission requirements for a structured approach to further develop, integrate, and sustain a scalable, federated data ecosystem that enhances interoperability, governance, and mission-driven analytics for a DoD customer. The primary objective of the program is to bridge the operational gaps between DoD, IC, interagency, and non-traditional international partners to enable real-time information sharing, dynamic data integration, and mission-tailored analytical capabilities. Essential Job Duties: • Monitor and validate Kubernetes and data lake deployments for compliance with RMF, NIST 800-53, and DoD IL4/IL5 requirements, in collaboration with agency cybersecurity teams. • Maintain continuous monitoring dashboards and conduct vulnerability scans of deployed infrastructure and workloads, supporting the agency’s ATO process and risk posture. • Prepare and update system security documentation—including SSPs, SARs, POA&Ms—to reflect changes to architecture, controls, or risk conditions under other work orders. • Enforce encryption, logging, and identity access policies (IAM, RBAC, audit logging) to maintain traceability and accountability across the Kubernetes-based data layer. • Submit the Security & Compliance Assessment Report, providing a summary of control effectiveness, findings, and recommended remediation actions. Minimum Requirements: • Active TS-SCI Clearance. • Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Information Assurance, Computer Science, or a related field, or five (5) years of equivalent experience in security and compliance roles. • Knowledge and capability to implement, monitor, and enforce security policies, frameworks, and compliance controls across cloud-based and on-premises environments. • Proficient in NIST 800-53, FedRAMP, DoD IL-4/5 security policies, and risk assessment methodologies. • Strong understanding of identity and access management (IAM), security monitoring tools (Splunk, SIEM solutions), zero-trust architecture, and vulnerability assessment frameworks is required. • Demonstrated experience in conducting security audits, assessing system compliance with DoD cybersecurity policies, and implementing security controls in cloud and hybrid environments. • Experience with security automation, endpoint protection, and incident response processes is required. Preferred Qualifications: • Desired but not required certifications include Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), or AWS Certified Security – Specialty. Working Conditions: • Normal office conditions. Working at SOSi: All interested individuals will receive consideration and will not be discriminated against for any reason.
