Role Overview

Istari Digital delivers a model-based digital engineering platform used by defense and aerospace organizations to design and operate mission-critical systems. Our platform is deployed into classified and high-security environments, where cybersecurity is foundational—not optional.

We are hiring a Cybersecurity Solutions Architect to serve as the technical face of Istari to federal customers.  You will own the question: “Does this platform meet our security requirements – and how?”

  • Clear architectural explanations

  • Concrete engineering requirements

  • Support:

  • RFP/RFI responses

  • Security questionnaires

  • Accreditation alignment (RMF readiness)

  • Identify and communicate:

  • Security gaps early (before they become deal blockers)

  • Build:

  • Secure reference architectures for classified deployments

  • Partner with engineering to:

  • Shape roadmap based on federal security needs


  • Required Qualifications
  • Active TS clearance with SCI eligibility

  • Deep understanding of:

  • NIST 800-53 / 800-171

  • RMF / ATO processes

  • 3+ years of experience working with:

  • DoW, IC, or SAP programs

  • AWS, Azure, or Google Public Sector(especially GovCloud / compliance / security)

  • Prior work in:
