Satellite Communications Systems Security Engineer, Mid

The Opportunity

Are you seeking an opportunity to enhance your expertise in satellite communications systems, including devices, implanting security systems, and identifying tools that will support our country and safeguard our nation? As a Satellite Communications Systems Security and Network Security Engineer, you will identify the necessary tools, security systems, devices, and applications required to assess vulnerabilities and recommend optimal solutions and security strategies.

Your experience is needed to develop and implement security solutions that protect our military and infrastructure.

Join a team of communications and systems engineers supporting engineering, sustainment, and management of communications systems. You’ll perform ongoing system analyst activities for programs, perform risk assessments of systems and equipment, assist engineers with identifying solutions for vulnerabilities, create and map Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs), submit change requests for system components, develop a Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M), create documentation supporting Risk Management Framework (RMF) accreditations, perform vulnerability management using automated systems, and create and submit RMF packages.

You’ll brief the technical security posture to client leadership, prepare brief slides and summaries of vulnerabilities, and advise on how to prevent and mitigate future security threats.

In this role, you’ll closely impact a national security level communications system that provides vital information to strategic and tactical users of the DoD Teleport system. With mentoring, challenging hands‑on problem‑solving, and opportunities to learn new tools and skills, we focus on growing as a team to make the best solutions for our customers.
