Produce accurate advisory recommendations, including gap analyses and supporting deliverables.
Lead or participate in client discussions on complex FedRAMP topics under the Manager’s direction.

Document how the CSP implements CR26 rules and KSIs (or rev5 controls) for the SDR, including verification and validation approach and required artifacts.
Use a “what-will-assessors-look-for” approach to help ensure artifacts withstand scrutiny from assessors, PMO, and agency customers.
Advise clients on FedRAMP certification processes, including timelines and Continuous Monitoring (ConMon) expectations.
Help clients plan, establish, and execute regular ConMon processes, including ongoing vulnerability management after VDR/VER and additional CR26 processes.
Provide subject-matter guidance on complex ConMon and ongoing reporting issues in CR26, and support performance where needed.
Support team members with FedRAMP requirements, cloud architectures, DevSecOps, and security tools/technologies.
Contribute lessons learned, templates, and technical guidance to service-line playbooks.
Conduct deep technical research on specific matters as directed by SMEs or the CKO.

Understanding of cloud computing technologies: AWS, Azure, and/or GCP.
Experience advising on cloud architecture, security configurations, and compliance best practices.
