Hands-on AWS cloud experience and ability to work effectively in highly controlled environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

Nexus Repository, OpenSearch, SIEM tooling, or security automation.
Experience implementing NIST 800-53, STIG-aligned hardening, and POA&M remediation.
Relevant AWS professional or specialty certifications; Security+ or CISSP where applicable
