Sr Advanced Cyber Security Architect/Engineer
About the Role
as per instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we include About the role heading.
We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have About the Role (the description). Responsibilities: we have "Key Responsibilities Core ISSM/ISSO Responsibilities" and bullet list. So we include Responsibilities.
Qualifications: we have "Qualifications" section with bullet list and also "Must Have:" etc. So include Qualifications.
Skills: there is "Technical Skills:" inside Qualifications but we could treat as Skills section. The instruction says we can have Skills heading if there is content. There's technical skills listed: Experience with network administration, security tools (e.g., STIGs, SCC) and system hardening. Proficiency in configuring and managing secure Windows environments. Also maybe "High level Windows system administration – Windows 10 & 11 CMMC requirements and maintenance expertise". So we could create a Skills section.
Benefits: there is a Benefits Of Working For Solstice Advanced Materials paragraph with list. So include Benefits.
Pay: there is Compensation section with salary range. So include Pay.
Schedule: there is "Availability: Ability to work 100% in New Jersey". That's schedule/location. Could be Schedule section. It says ability to work 100% in New Jersey (onsite). So we can include Schedule.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not repeat job title as heading. We are not.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "Learn more about inclusion and diversity: click here", "For more information visit: click here", "About Us", etc. Also remove navigation/legal.
We must preserve all substantive information.
We need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We need to ensure we don't duplicate content.
Let's extract content.
About the Role: The paragraph after "About the Role". It says: "We are seeking an experienced, detail-oriented Information Systems Security Manager / Information Systems Security Officer (ISSM/ISSO) to lead all aspects of classified information system security, regulatory compliance, and safeguarding of classified material for the organization. This key role is responsible for ensuring adherence to the National Industrial Security Program (NISP), maintaining compliant classified systems aligned with DAAG and NIST SP 800 53 requirements, interpreting and implementing government security directives, and serving as a primary interface with senior company and government representatives. In addition to these core responsibilities, this position will also serve as the organizational support for commercial external cybersecurity compliance and risk management, supporting customer security inquiries, third party assessments, and commercial cybersecurity governance activities. This role requires a highly self-directed, task oriented professional capable of operating independently with minimal supervision while maintaining exceptional accuracy, discipline, and accountability."
We'll put that in
.
Responsibilities: Under "Key Responsibilities Core ISSM/ISSO Responsibilities". Then a list of items separated by periods? Actually each sentence ends with a period but they are not bullet points. We need to convert to list items. The content:
- Ensure organizational compliance with the National Industrial Security Program (NISP) and all applicable government security requirements.
- Interpret, clarify, and communicate security policies and regulations in coordination with company leadership, government officials, and external stakeholders.
- Develop, maintain, and enforce system security plans, procedures, and documentation that safeguard classified information and ensure compliant system operation.
- Oversee all aspects of classified system security, including configuration management, audit log review, continuous monitoring, system hardening, and vulnerability mitigation.
- Administer and support classified DoD collateral information systems, providing onsite system administration, troubleshooting, patch management, and end user support.
- Ensure compliance with the (Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency) DCSA Assessment and Authorization Guide (DAAG) and NIST SP 800 53 control requirements.
- Conduct system risk assessments, coordinate incident response activities, and maintain system accreditation status.
- Perform security audits, self-inspections, and assessments to validate compliance and identify areas for improvement.
- Partner with Facility Security Officers (FSOs), internal program teams, and government security personnel to maintain a cohesive, compliant security environment.
- Provide guidance, training, and support to employees at all levels to ensure proper safeguarding, control, and handling of classified materials.
- Act as a primary point of contact for resolving classified system issues, ensuring effective communication among technical teams, leadership, and government representatives.
We'll put each as
- .
Qualifications: There's a "Qualifications" heading then paragraph: "Strong knowledge of NISP, DAAG, NIST SP 800 53, and related classified information system requirements.Hands on experience administering, securing, and maintaining classified DoD collateral systems.Demonstrated expertise in security governance, risk analysis, and implementation of technical security controls.Experience supporting commercial cybersecurity compliance and third-party risk assessments.Ability to clearly communicate complex technical and regulatory requirements to diverse audiences.Highly self-directed, detail oriented, and capable of working independently with minimal oversight.Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance."
Then after that there is "Qualifications Must Have: Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance Certifications: DoD 8140 IAT Level 2 minimum compliant certification CompTIA Security+ certified (or become certified within 6 months of hire) Experience: At least 3 years of IT system administration experience At least 1 year of IT Project Management experience Working knowledge of audit & assessment procedures, policy management.

Ability to lift up to 25 pounds (e.g., for hardware setup) and sit/stand for extended periods. Comfortable working in a high-security environment with strict access controls and protocols We Value Prior work with DAAG and NIST SP 800-53 standards or in a defense contracting environment. High level Windows system administration – Windows 10 & 11 CMMC requirements and maintenance expertise Project management, security compliance and audit experience."
We need to separate sections: Qualifications (maybe include Must Have etc). Skills: technical skills etc. Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not duplicate content. Let's structure:

Qualifications
Strong knowledge of NISP, DAAG, NIST SP 800 53, and related classified information system requirements. Hands on experience administering, securing, and maintaining classified DoD collateral systems. Demonstrated expertise in security governance, risk analysis, and implementation of technical security controls. Experience supporting commercial cybersecurity compliance and third-party risk assessments. Ability to clearly communicate complex technical and regulatory requirements to diverse audiences. Highly self-directed, detail oriented, and capable of working independently with minimal oversight. Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance.
Then maybe a Must Have
but not in allowed headings list. Could incorporate into Qualifications as list. But we have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No "Must Have". So we should embed Must Have content within Qualifications or maybe Requirements. There's no "Requirements" heading in the posting but we could create a Requirements section for the Must Have items (certifications, experience, education, etc). The instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have a Requirements section for the mandatory items. Then Qualifications could be for the "Strong knowledge..." etc. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's split:
- Requirements: Must Have items (clearance, certifications, experience, education, availability, physical requirements). Also maybe "We Value" items could be optional but we could include as part of Requirements or Qualifications? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content. We have content for Requirements (must have). So we can create Requirements
with list.
- Qualifications: the "Strong knowledge..." paragraph.
- Skills: technical skills (network administration, security tools, system hardening, proficiency configuring Windows, high level Windows system administration Windows 10 & 11 CMMC, project management, security compliance audit experience). Also maybe "Prior work with DAAG and NIST SP 800-53 standards or in a defense contracting environment." That could be Skills or Qualifications. We'll put in Skills.
- Benefits: the benefits paragraph.
- Pay: compensation paragraph.
- Schedule: availability to work 100% in New Jersey (onsite). Also maybe mention "Must work onsite at a secured facility." That's more about work environment but could be Schedule? Actually schedule is about work hours/location. We'll include location/onsite requirement.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract each piece.
From the text:
