Create custom reports, iViews, dashboards, and level-driven access logic for user groups across multiple HHS OpDivs and mission-specific roles.
Provide hands-on support for all stages of the Dev > UAT > Prod pipeline across HCAP-managed environments.
Perform troubleshooting and root cause analysis in collaboration with Lab Administrators, DBAs, and QA team during development, deployment, and incident escalation cycles.
Participate in weekly release meetings, providing technical demonstrations of new functionality to stakeholders, and leading remediation of system defects or change requests.
Use tools like ServiceNow or Remedy to manage tickets, document issue history, and communicate with OpDiv representatives regarding technical changes and support status.
Maintain and version control use case documentation including GRC platform Configuration Guides, Workflow Maps, Field/Relationship Inventory, and Change Logs.
Mentor mid-level developers on platform architecture, API strategies, control inheritance modeling, and use case optimization techniques.
Demonstrate experience working in a federal cybersecurity environment, with strong understanding of compliance frameworks including NIST 800-53 Rev. 5, FISMA, and DISA STIGs.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Business Analysts, QA Testers, Lab Admins, and CISO staff to align GRC platform functionality with security and operational objectives.
Contributes to OSCAL integration for automated control implementation and system documentation.

This includes responsibility for documenting design, implementation, testing, deployment, rollback, and lessons learned. Any and all alterations, changes, or modifications to a GRC/Archer Production type environment must be processed through the Change Control Board (CCB) with clear risk analysis, system impact reviews, and rollback procedures.

The actual base salary offered will be determined based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the candidate’s relevant years and depth of experience, skills and qualifications, education, certifications, internal equity, and the specific requirements of the position. Candidates should not assume they will be offered the top of the posted range, as compensation is based on the individual qualifications and overall fit for the role.
