What will you be doing?

WWT is seeking a Lead Cybersecurity Architect for the Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) program. The Lead Cybersecurity Architect will spearhead a team of CSfC (Commercial Solutions for Classified) implementation engineers, driving the implementation, deployment, and maintenance of secure communication systems that leverage commercial technologies to protect classified information in compliance with NSA standards. This role requires a blend of technical (network, systems, security, policy) expertise, leadership skills, and strategic oversight to ensure mission-critical projects are delivered efficiently and securely.

The role requires senior systems and platform-security experience, combining breadth across the CSfC Capability Packages with hands-on depth in RHEL platform security, virtualization, PKI, and DoD hardening. It also requires a solid understanding of networking, including TCP/UDP, firewalls, routing, and both site-to-site and client IPsec VPNs. The architect must communicate effectively across audiences, from hands-on engineers to executive decision-makers.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Lead and mentor a team of CSfC implementation engineers for the USN enterprise CSfC deployment, providing technical guidance, performance feedback, and professional development opportunities to foster a high-performing team.
• Serve as liaison with government and industry from a cybersecurity perspective. Ensure constant technical, security, and information assurance guidance is provided, and feedback is received from the government.
• Conduct briefings on CSfC cybersecurity topics to the executive level of USN.
• Oversee the cybersecurity parameters of the implementation of CSfC solutions, including installation, configuration, integration, and testing to meet classified network requirements.
• Ensure all CSfC deployments comply with NSA CSfC Capability Packages, policies, and guidelines, conducting regular audits and risk assessments to maintain security integrity.
• Facilitate design reviews of components (hardware and software) to ensure applicability to the current system and traceability of requirements.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including cybersecurity analysts, network architects, and stakeholders, to align CSfC initiatives with organizational objectives and resolve complex technical challenges.
• Ensure technical accuracy of documentation of system configurations, procedures, and changes; maintain accurate records for audits and future reference.
• Convert the solution design drawings into as-built drawings and maintain throughout the solution implementation process.
• Troubleshoot and resolve advanced issues in CSfC environments, such as encryption protocols, VPN configurations, and multi-layer security implementations.
• Stay abreast of emerging technologies, threats, and updates to CSfC standards, recommending improvements and leading innovation efforts within the team.
• Provide feedback to design engineers and evaluate end-to-end systems and systems-oriented products through their entire life cycle.
• Conduct training sessions and knowledge-sharing activities to enhance team capabilities in CSfC best practices and tools.
• Assist with vendor relationships and evaluation of commercial products for CSfC compatibility, ensuring seamless integration into classified systems.
• Travel required ~25%
