Raft (https://TeamRaft.com) is a customer-obsessed non-traditional defense tech company dedicated to empowering U.S. military and government agencies with cutting-edge AI/ML and data solutions. We are a leader in autonomous data fusion and Agentic AI, with a purposeful focus on Distributed Data Systems, Platforms at Scale, and Complex Application Development. With headquarters in McLean, VA, our range of clients includes innovative federal and public agencies leveraging design thinking, cutting-edge tech stack, and cloud-native ecosystem. We build digital solutions that impact the lives of millions of Americans.

About the role: 

Raft is seeking a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to support the program's core support team. This role will help secure, operate, and continuously improve the program environment as it provides secure access to protected DoD resources across cloud environments and multiple security classifications.
 
You will work alongside Product, DevSecOps, Site Reliability, and Software Engineering personnel to support team operations and develop security capabilities specific to the cloud platform environment.
 
What You’ll Do
  • Maintain and improve the cybersecurity posture of the cloud platform stack across classified and unclassified environments.
  • Support Authority to Operate (ATO) and continuous Authority to Operate (cATO) requirements and ensure platform changes remain aligned with the applicable DoD Reference Design and approved security baseline.
  • Identify, analyze, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities across cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes environments, containers, applications, and supporting technologies.
  • Integrate security controls and automated security testing into DevSecOps and GitOps workflows.
  • Support continuous monitoring and integration with applicable DoD Cyber Service Providers.
  • Develop and maintain security automation using Infrastructure as Code and Configuration as Code, including technologies such as Terraform, Ansible, Helm, Kubernetes Operators, and similar tooling.
  • Ensure the use of current hardened containers from Iron Bank and support updates to platform components outside the Iron Bank/Big Bang baseline, including firewalls, Kubernetes distributions, and cloud-provider services.
  • Support security capabilities associated with Zero Trust, identity, access control, PKI, authentication, authorization, ingress/egress, and micro-segmentation.
  • Monitor and update access and security policies, attestations, groups, users, devices, certificates, and resource entitlements.
  • Support integration with DoD PKI and Single Sign-On capabilities.
  • Support and secure technologies that may include AppGate, Palo Alto firewalls, HashiCorp Vault and Consul, Keycloak, Zeek, and RKE2/Kubernetes.
  • Develop and maintain cybersecurity and accreditation documentation in support of the DoD Risk Management Framework (RMF).
  • Partner with DoD teams and other stakeholders to improve security processes and accelerate secure enterprise deployments.
  • Participate in Agile development processes, including backlog refinement, technical planning, implementation, testing, and delivery.
  • Troubleshoot security and access issues affecting platform users and connected applications and services.

What we will offer you: 

Our Vision Statement: 

We bridge the gap between humans and data through radical transparency and our obsession with the mission. 

Our Customer Obsession: 

We will approach every deliverable like it's a product. We will adopt a customer-obsessed mentality. As we grow, and our footprint becomes larger, teams and employees will treat each other not only as teammates but customers. We must live the customer-obsessed mindset, always. This will help us scale and it will translate to the interactions that our Rafters have with their clients and other product teams that they integrate with. Our culture will enable our success and set us apart from other companies.

How do we get there? 

Public-sector modernization is critical for us to live in a better world. We, at Raft, want to innovate and solve complex problems.

Raft’s core philosophy is Ubuntu: I Am, Because We are. We support our “nadi” by elevating the other Rafters. We work as a hyper collaborative team where each team member brings a unique perspective, adding value that did not exist before. People make Raft special. We celebrate each other and our cognitive and cultural diversity. We are devoted to our practice of innovation and collaboration.
