Apogee Global RMS
Arlington, VA Contractor
POSTED ON 5/7/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/2/2026
Apogee Global RMS is seeking a CMMC Practitioner / Pre‑Audit Specialist to support Defense Industrial Base (DIB) organizations preparing for CMMC Level 2 assessments and DFARS 252.204‑7012 compliance. This role is designed for practitioners who bring hands‑on NIST 800‑171 implementation experience, understand the realities of CUI environments, and can guide organizations through pre‑audit readiness with precision and authority.

You will serve as a trusted advisor to engineering, compliance, and executive teams — ensuring that documentation, controls, and evidence packages are audit-ready and aligned to Cyber AB expectations.

What You Will Lead:

  • Pre‑assessment readiness for CMMC Level 2, including gap analysis and remediation planning
  • Development and refinement of SSPs, POA&Ms, evidence artifacts, and policy frameworks
  • Mapping of NIST 800‑171 controls to technical implementations across on‑prem, cloud, and hybrid environments
  • Advisory support for DFARS 252.204‑7012, incident reporting readiness, and CUI boundary protections
  • Coordination with C3PAOs, RPOs, and internal stakeholders to ensure audit alignment
  • Continuous monitoring and compliance sustainment strategies for DIB organizations

Requirements

Certifications:

  • Cyber AB CCP (Certified CMMC Professional)
  • CCA (Certified CMMC Assessor)
  • RPA (Registered Practitioner Advanced)
  • NIST 800‑171 hands‑on implementation experience
  • DFARS 252.204‑7012 fluency
  • CISSP or CISA for technical/compliance depth

Technical & Functional Expertise:

  • Deep understanding of CMMC Level 2 practices, assessment criteria, and evidence expectations
  • Experience preparing organizations for C3PAO assessments
  • Ability to translate compliance requirements into actionable engineering tasks
  • Strong documentation, policy development, and audit‑facing communication skills
  • Familiarity with CUI handling, enclave design, and boundary protection

Location & Clearance:

  • Must reside in the NCR (DC/MD/VA)
  • Secret minimum; clearable candidates considered

Expected Skills:

  • Understanding the real‑world implementation of NIST 800‑171, not just the text
  • Expertise to guide organizations through complex pre‑audit readiness with clarity and confidence
  • Communicate effectively with engineers, executives, and assessors
  • Operate with precision, structure, and mission‑aligned discipline
  • Thrive in high‑trust, high‑impact advisory environments supporting the DIB

Benefits

Why Apogee:

Apogee supporting federal programs in this Top Tier engagement where compliance maturity directly impacts contract eligibility, mission readiness, and national‑level defense outcomes. You'll work with decision‑makers, shape audited environments, and operate in a space that values expertise, rigor, and operational excellence.
