Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud,” but not everyone knows how to secure it. As a cloud security architect, you know how to assess and implement requirements that ensure the safety of information systems and protect them against intentional or inadvertent access or destruction. What if you could use your advanced cloud security skills to improve the security of cloud-based applications, powering critical communications and situational awareness for thousands of agencies across the country? We need you to guide the development of cloud-based security architectures for some of public safety's most critical systems.

As a cloud security architect on our team, you’ll define, communicate, and implement security architecture to support mission-critical operations for Sit(x), a Booz Allen product.

Your technical expertise will be vital as you work with developers to ensure standards are met with information assurance and security requirements.

This is an opportunity to use the latest cloud technologies as you look for ways to secure your customer’s environment. You’ll continue to strengthen your skills in cloud-based security in AWS while mentoring tomorrow’s cloud security experts.

Help us transform and secure tactical communications networks with cloud technology.
