Job Description

**SUMMARY
**We’re looking for a Cyber Systems Administrator (Lead) to be the on‑site cybersecurity authority supporting a federal customer’s building and facility control systems. These systems power the environment that keeps the installation running — everything from building automation to utilities and metering — and your work helps ensure they remain secure, resilient, and audit-ready.

This position is both hands‑on and leadership focused. You will be the local cybersecurity presence, overseeing day‑to‑day security operations while also serving as the primary connection between the on‑site operations team and the government’s broader cybersecurity organization, which works from a separate location. You’ll translate local technical realities into clear updates for remote stakeholders, align the site with enterprise cyber standards, and guide the customer toward maintaining their Authority to Operate (ATO).

Lead and mentor a small team responsible for RMF documentation, security controls, and compliance activities.

JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Lead daily cybersecurity operations for facility and control systems — patching, hardening, monitoring, and compliance.
• Supervise and mentor two RMF Specialists, reviewing work and developing their technical capabilities
• Act as the on‑site liaison between the facility team, OEM vendors, and the government’s remote cybersecurity team, ensuring alignment with enterprise-level security requirements.
• Run vulnerability scans, analyze results, and drive remediation to completion.
• Oversee creation of RMF documentation and security artifacts, ensuring accuracy and audit-readiness.
