Cyberspace Operations & Acquisition SME

Responsibilities

The Cyberspace Operations & Acquisition SME will support the Cyber Warfare directorate across the gamut of Offensive Cyberspace Operations, Defensive Cyberspace Operations, and Cybersecurity concerns. Primary focus will be on coordinating, researching, analyzing, and developing 4-star level presentations called Integrated Acquisition Portfolio Reviews (IAPRs). Each IAPR will focus on enterprise-level interdependencies, capability shortfalls and gaps, and opportunities to mitigate cyber risk to mission via acquisition programs and/or cyberspace policy and authorities changes.

While a technical understanding of cyberspace operations is always welcome, the ideal candidate will remain focused on the mission-level considerations, aka the "so what?" aspect of integrating cyber into the kinetic warfighting domains.
