• Support the Cyber Security Operations Center with investigative administration for malware, spyware, Trojans, and unauthorized software.
• Provide full-time operational support, with potential for after-hours and weekend on-call duty.
• Operate independently with minimal oversight, while also working closely with team members to fulfill mission objectives.
• Apply analytical and evaluative methods to assess information, plan actions, and solve complex security challenges.
• Assist USAF and other government agencies in developing SSO documents, presentations, formal messages, background papers, and administrative materials.
• Perform SCI security support functions and access JWICS systems within the SCIF.

What Sets you Apart (Required):

• Active TS/SCI security clearance
• Current Security+ certification
• Bachelor’s degree in IT, Information Assurance, or related field with 9+ years of relevant experience, or a Master’s degree with 7+ years. Additional experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.

If you’re already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2... good. You’ll fit right in.
