You will lead technical workstreams to strengthen cloud security, modernize cyber operations, improve telemetry, and advance continuous security assurance for federal requirements. Your daily responsibilities include identifying configuration drift, validating security controls, automating responses, and modernizing logging architectures to defend against sophisticated nation-state threats. You will utilize a technical stack including Microsoft Sentinel, Defender, Azure Policy, Entra ID, and Key Vault. Additionally, you will develop Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and integrate security into DevSecOps pipelines. The role requires expertise in KQL, Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Resource Graph to ensure robust data protection and measurable evidence of operational integrity within a high-security federal environment.

  • Manage Microsoft Sentinel operations including data connectors, KQL queries, analytic rules, and workbooks.
  • Architect logging and monitoring systems to optimize telemetry collection while controlling costs.
  • Build Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform to integrate security into DevSecOps pipelines.
  • Secure cloud identity through Entra ID, RBAC, PIM, and managed identities.
  • Lead technical workstreams from initial architecture and design through to operational adoption.
  • Create measurable evidence of security controls to meet federal compliance and assurance requirements.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience designing, engineering, or securing Microsoft Azure environments.
  • Experience engineering security solutions within Microsoft Azure Government using Azure Policy and automated configuration-drift detection.
  • Experience operating Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender for Cloud with KQL and monitoring architectures.
  • Experience developing Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and integrating security into DevSecOps pipelines.
  • Experience securing cloud identity including Entra ID, RBAC, PIM, managed identities, service principals, and Key Vault.
  • Ability to lead technical workstreams from architecture through implementation while guiding a small engineering team.
  • Public Trust determination is required.
  • Bachelor's degree and Microsoft Azure certification are required.
