Work on mission-critical application security for national security initiatives while leveraging enterprise cloud platforms. This onsite role in Fort Meade, MD supports DoD environments through application security capabilities including F5 BIG-IP, inline break-and-inspect techniques, and TLS/mTLS configurations aligned to enterprise architecture expectations.
What you’ll do
Apply your application security expertise to help design, implement, and administer security capabilities that protect enterprise systems and applications. You will support solutions that rely on proxy-based inline inspection approaches, including reverse web proxy and forward web proxy patterns, and you will troubleshoot security configurations and issues impacting stakeholders across an enterprise architecture.
In addition, you will work on cryptography-related configuration and validation, including TLS, mutual TLS (mTLS), hashing algorithms, and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). You will also engage with DoD clients and stakeholders to resolve application security concerns within DoD enterprise architecture contexts.
