Cybersecurity Advanced Red Team Operator

The Opportunity:

As a cybersecurity professional, you know that understanding adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures is vital to producing the intel that enables the success of our client as it tests new capabilities introduced to the Fleet. At Booz Allen, you can apply your skills and broad knowledge to inform strategies and mitigate the most pressing vulnerabilities. Here, you aren’t just deciphering reports. You’re telling the story to inform the U.S. Navy's most far-reaching cyber security vulnerabilities.

As a Cybersecurity Advanced Red Team Operator on our team, you’ll help customers solve problems using ethical hacking software like Core Impact, Nmap, Burp, Metasploit, Sharphound, and Nessus. Using penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, risk assessments, and threat monitoring, you’ll work alongside multiple stakeholders to plan tests, evaluate risk, and make meaningful recommendations. You’ll monitor security environments and identify security gaps through the eyes of an adversary.

In this role, you’ll impact the U.S. Navy's acquisition decisions by evaluating a new system's network environment for new and evolving threats, analyzing integrated Validated Online Lifecycle Threat (VOLT) Reports with all-source intelligence, conducting cyber ethical hacking activities to test a system's cyber resiliency, supporting damage assessment activities to assess adversary capabilities, and reporting these results to U.S. Navy Operational Test personnel.

Booz Allen is committed to creating an environment where you can expand your cyber career through mentoring, the opportunity to leverage new resources, and the ability to gain in-demand certifications to sharpen your skill set. With opportunities supporting both the private and public sectors across multiple geographies, your career is only limited by your own appetite for exploration.

Work with us to secure our Navy's systems, networks, and crucial infrastructures.
