TL;DR · Information Systems Security Manager

As an Information Systems Security Manager, you will serve as the principal cybersecurity authority for multiple system authorization packages throughout their full lifecycle. You will manage the RMF process from end-to-end, including categorizing systems, selecting and tailoring controls, overseeing assessment activities, and maintaining a continuous monitoring posture after authorization. This role involves supervising a team of ISSOs, reviewing their work, and consolidating authoritative packages within eMASS. You will coordinate directly with Authorizing Officials and program leadership to resolve findings and manage POA&Ms. The position requires expertise in NIST SP 800-53, 800-37, and 800-137 standards, as well as experience with CNSSI 1253 and DoD-specific overlays. You will ensure Department of War information systems remain defensible against evolving threats while managing compliance for complex technical environments involving cloud-hosted systems like AWS, Azure, or GCP.

What you'll do

  • Manage the RMF process end-to-end including categorization, control selection, assessment, and authorization.
  • Maintain the continuous monitoring posture for systems after they receive an Authorization to Operate (ATO).
  • Supervise a team of ISSOs by assigning control families and reviewing their technical work.
  • Consolidate security documentation and artifacts into authoritative packages within the eMASS system.
  • Coordinate with Authorizing Officials and Security Control Assessors to resolve findings and manage POA&Ms.
  • Establish standards for documentation, artifact management, and internal governance frameworks.
  • Train and mentor junior compliance staff on cybersecurity requirements and procedures.
  • Communicate security risk and compliance status clearly to senior leadership and stakeholders.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in cybersecurity compliance, information assurance, or IT security operations.
  • Experience serving as an ISSM, ISSO, or RMF authorization role on DoD/DoW systems.
  • Experience managing all steps of the RMF process from categorization through continuous monitoring.
  • Experience using eMASS for authorization package development, POA&M management, and artifact evidence management.
  • Experience supervising or mentoring ISSOs or junior compliance staff.
  • Ability to communicate security risk and compliance status clearly to senior leaders, AOs, and SCAs.
  • TS/SCI clearance is required.
  • Bachelor's degree and DoD 8570/8140 IAM Level III certification are required.
