Cybersecurity Architect - Active TS/SCI with CI Poly
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Nice If You Have:" maybe treat as "Preferred Qualifications" but we can include as part of Requirements or Skills? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. We can have sections: About the role (the introductory paragraph), Responsibilities (maybe the bullet list of duties), Requirements (the listed requirements), Qualifications (education/experience alternatives), Skills (maybe technical skills list), Benefits (the benefits list). We need to avoid duplication.
Let's parse the posting:
First paragraph: "Everyone knows security needs to be "baked in" to system architecture, but you actually know how to bake it in. You can identify and implement ways to harden systems and reduce their attack surface. As a Cybersecurity Architect on our project, you'll lead the architecture and design efforts of innovative Cybersecurity solutions and service offerings to protect federal networks. You'll coordinate with a dynamic team of thought leaders and experts to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer's IT needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions. You'll lead the team through a critical approach to network and systems design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions, to maintain a balance of security and mission needs. This is a chance to make a difference in the security of the government. Your technical expertise will be vital as you help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by leading Cybersecurity technologies and domains, including IoT and Cloud security, Automation and Orchestration (A&O), identity and access management, and machine learning."
That's about the role.
Then "Requirements" heading appears in text: "Requirements 8+ years of experience with Cybersecurity, including 5+ years of experience with leading technical project delivery for large, complex organizations5+ years of experience in network architecture and designExperience with architecting Zero Trust solutions, road maps, and capabilities in alignment with industry standards, including NIST 800-207 and DoD Zero Trust Reference ArchitectureExperience with leading product selection initiatives, including perimeter defense, zero trust, A&O, AI, analytics, secure DevOps, identity and access management, or network access controlAbility to work with and guide senior leaders, including CISO, CIO, and CTO, and executives to ideate, build, and execute cybersecurity capability maturationActive TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph examAssociate's degree and 10+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, Bachelor's degree and 8+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, or Master's degree and 6+ years of experience supporting IT projects, or 12+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities in lieu of a degreeAbility to obtain a DoD 8570.01-M Cybersecurity Service Provider - Infrastructure Support (CSSP-IS) Certification, including CEH, CySA+, GICSP, SSCP, CHFI, CFR, Cloud+, or CND certification within 30 days of offer acceptAbility to obtain a DoD 8570 IAT Level III Certification such as SecurityX (formerly CASP+), CCNP Security, CISA, CISSP (or Associate), GCED, GCIH, CCSP certification within 45 days of CSSP-IS date (or offer accept if candidate already has CSSP-IS Cert) or 45 days after CSSP-IS if CSSP-IS is also needed."
That seems like a block of requirements. Then "Nice If You Have:" list.
Then "Benefits" heading: "Essential Network Security (ENS) Solutions, LLC is a service-disabled veteran owned, highly regarded IT consulting and management firm. ENS consults for the Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) providing innovative solutions in the core competency area of Identity, Credential and Access Management (ICAM), Software Development, Cyber and Network Security, System Engineering, Program/Project Management, IT support, Solutions, and Services that yield enduring results. Our strong technical and management experts have been able to maintain a standard of excellence in their relationships while delivering innovative, scalable and collaborative infrastructure to our clients. Why ENS?

Then "Candidate AI Usage Policy" which is boilerplate; we should remove.
We need to extract lists.
Let's break down:
About the role: the first paragraph(s) before "Requirements". We'll put that in
.
Responsibilities: The posting didn't have a separate responsibilities section; the description includes responsibilities like leading architecture, coordinating team, leading team through critical approach, etc. Could treat as responsibilities. But we already used that description for About the role. Might split: About the role = overview; Responsibilities = bullet list of duties. However the instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to identify lists.
We have a list of duties: "lead the architecture and design efforts...", "coordinate with a dynamic team...", "lead the team through a critical approach...". Those are sentences, not bullet list. Could still be considered duties but not a list. We could still put them in
. The instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If not a list, we can use
. So we can keep About the role as prose.
Requirements: The block after "Requirements" includes many items; we can turn each sentence into
- . However some are combined without punctuation. We need to parse.
Let's extract each requirement:
- 8+ years of experience with Cybersecurity, including 5+ years of experience with leading technical project delivery for large, complex organizations
- 5+ years of experience in network architecture and design
- Experience with architecting Zero Trust solutions, road maps, and capabilities in alignment with industry standards, including NIST 800-207 and DoD Zero Trust Reference Architecture
- Experience with leading product selection initiatives, including perimeter defense, zero trust, A&O, AI, analytics, secure DevOps, identity and access management, or network access control
- Ability to work with and guide senior leaders, including CISO, CIO, and CTO, and executives to ideate, build, and execute cybersecurity capability maturation
- Active TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph exam
- Associate's degree and 10+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, Bachelor's degree and 8+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, or Master's degree and 6+ years of experience supporting IT projects, or 12+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities in lieu of a degree
- Ability to obtain a DoD 8570.01-M Cybersecurity Service Provider - Infrastructure Support (CSSP-IS) Certification, including CEH, CySA+, GICSP, SSCP, CHFI, CFR, Cloud+, or CND certification within 30 days of offer accept
- Ability to obtain a DoD 8570 IAT Level III Certification such as SecurityX (formerly CASP+), CCNP Security, CISA, CISSP (or Associate), GCED, GCIH, CCSP certification within 45 days of CSSP-IS date (or offer accept if candidate already has CSSP-IS Cert) or 45 days after CSSP-IS if CSSP-IS is also needed.
That seems comprehensive.
Qualifications: The education/experience alternatives could be considered qualifications. But we already included that as a requirement item. Could separate Qualifications section for education alternatives. However the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we keep Requirements as one section covering all. Qualifications maybe not needed.
Skills: Could list technical skills: IoT and Cloud security, Automation and Orchestration (A&O), identity and access management, machine learning, Zero Trust, perimeter defense, A&O, AI, analytics, secure DevOps, network access control, etc. But those are already in requirements. Might be redundant. Could create Skills section for those technical domains. However we need to avoid duplication. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in original? But we should not repeat same info unnecessarily? It didn't forbid duplication, but we should aim for concise. Probably better to have Requirements section covering all, and Benefits section.
Thus sections: About the role (prose), Requirements (list), Benefits (list). No Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule.
