contribute to and implement Plans of Actions
and Milestones (POA&Ms) to mitigate open cyber risks.

The ideal candidate will communicate effectively with a range of audiences, technical and non-
technical, and will function effectively on an
engineering team to create a collaborative
environment that allows for the establishment of mission goals, itemized planning of tasks, and prioritization of tasks that drives the efficient
