• In-depth knowledge of the Linux OS (RHEL 7+/CentOS 7+) and its core components, including the kernel, system libraries, and package management (RPM, YUM).
• Solid understanding of fundamental network protocols, including TCP/IP, DNS, SSL/TLS, and HTTP.
• Strong understanding of secure system design and operational security principles.
• Ability to document processes and clearly communicate technical risks to stakeholders.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
• Active TS/SCI clearance is required.

Preferred Qualifications
