The Cyber Software Engineer III is a senior‑level, technically‑deep role that bridges secure software development with embedded hardware platforms and complex networking infrastructures. This role is responsible for designing, developing, documenting, testing, and maintaining comprehensive cyber‑security solutions throughout the entire lifecycle of our information systems. Using a variety of automated assessment tools, such as ACAS, Nessus, Rapid7, SCAP/SCC, Evaluate‑STIG, custom scripts, and manual STIG checklists, the engineer conducts thorough system analyses, identifies security gaps, and creates actionable remediation plans.
In this position, the Cyber Software Engineer III drives system‑wide improvements, including the development of software‑patching strategies, vulnerability‑management roadmaps, and the adoption of new security technologies that strengthen overall resilience.
