    Default job background
    Description


    The DarkStar Group is seeking an Information Systems Security Engineer with a TS clearance to join one of our top projects in Herndon, VA.

    Below is an overview of the project, as well as information on our company, our benefits, and our $25,000 referral program.


    THE PROJECT
    The DarkStar Group's team solves unique and challenging intelligence problems for a Special Operations customer.

    This work is as close to the mission as a technologist can get, so the environment is fast-paced: team members face rapidly-changing requirements and priorities as mission needs evolve.

    If you hate monotony and want to use your skills to have a direct impact on real-world operational success, this is the project for you.


    We are a multi-faceted software development and systems administration team working to build and maintain software applications backed by a self-managed cloud infrastructure (OpenStack) with a true big-data footprint (over 10 petabytes).

    Our diverse background of experience in mission support and software development serves as a catalyst to solve unique and challenging intelligence problems in support of special operations analysts and their on-going activities.

    Prototyping and frequent, iterative feedback are core to our delivery approach, anchored by a need to work quickly in support of our missions.


    The technical stack is quite robust and includes Java, Python, C#, C/C++, Geospatial tools, Big Data and Graph Products (Hadoop, MapReduce, Spark, ElasticSearch, Neo4j), Linux, OpenStack, AWS, Ansible, SQL/NoSQL, Text Processing, Cloud Services, Containerization, Infrastructure as Code (IAC), and more.


    Work on this program takes place in the Herndon, VA area (we cannot support remote work) and requires a TS clearance and a willingness to obtain a CI Poly: a current TS/SCI + CI Poly is preferred.


    THE ROLE


    The DarkStar Group is currently seeking an independent, creative, and driven Information Systems Security Engineer (ISSE) to join our big-data platform team.

    In this role, you will support a massive National Security platform supporting large-scale analytics on various customer data sources. If you are an ideal candidate, you are passionate about technology and have an ability to learn quickly.


    What you will be doing:


    Contribute to team success by building out and maintaining a large-scale customer hosted OpenStack platform, enabling massive analytics for platform users.


    Analyze existing and future systems, review security architectures, and develop engineering solutions that integrate information security requirements to proactively manage information protection.

    Engineer and deploy network defense countermeasures such as anti-virus, anti-spam, and intrusion detection and prevention system solutions.

    Analyze Information Assurance (IA) security events, including threat model development and resulting security risk analysis of systems.
