Your new role

We are seeking a detail-oriented and proactive Security Operations Analyst with expertise in FedRAMP to join our cybersecurity team.

You will support the ongoing operational security of FedRAMP-authorized cloud environments by ensuring compliance, monitoring, incident response, vulnerability management, and continuous security improvement in line with FedRAMP Moderate and DoD IL4.

This role partners with several areas of Digital Science and adds value through delivering and operating a robust secure hosting environment operating within a compliance framework which meets our ever evolving customer compliance requirements.

You will be part of our wider Information Security team, primarily responsible for the delivery and maintenance of compliance specific to large, US (Federal) customers with enhanced security and privacy requirements.

This role (due to Federal requirements) can only be satisfied by a “US citizen, US national, or US person” and additional checks may be required.

What you’ll be doing

Monitor and analyze security events from various sources (e.g., SIEM, IDS/IPS, vulnerability scanners) in FedRAMP-authorized environments. Support continuous monitoring (ConMon) efforts including monthly scans, POA&M tracking, and submission of monthly deliverables (e.g., vulnerability scan reports, inventory, change logs). Perform regular vulnerability assessments and coordinate with system owners to remediate findings within FedRAMP timelines. Ensure security alerts, incidents, and policy violations are promptly investigated and documented. Support annual security assessments and interface with 3PAOs and agency representatives during audits. Maintain and update System Security Plan (SSP), Incident Response Plan (IRP), and other FedRAMP-required documentation. Ensure compliance with NIST SP 800-53 controls aligned with FedRAMP Moderate or High baselines. Assist with security patch management and change management processes. Collaborate with DevOps, IT, and compliance teams to implement FedRAMP continuous monitoring strategies. Maintain awareness of evolving threats, vulnerabilities, and industry best practices.

What you’ll bring to the role

3+ years of experience in a cybersecurity role, with at least 1–2 years focused on FedRAMP or similar regulatory frameworks (e.g., FISMA, DoD RMF). Strong knowledge of NIST 800-53 controls and the FedRAMP authorization process. Experience with security tools such as and not limited to Nessus, Tenable.sc, Splunk, AWS Security Hub, Qualys, CrowdStrike, etc. Familiarity with vulnerability management, incident response, and audit support. Excellent analytical, communication, and documentation skills. Security certifications such as Security+, CISSP, CAP, or CEH. Experience working with 3PAOs or in a 3PAO environment. Familiarity with SIEM tuning and log analysis. Experience with ticketing systems like Jira, ServiceNow, or similar. U.S. Citizenship required. Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
