Sr Cybersecurity Technology Consultant-CTJ-Poly

The ideal candidate will possess technical expertise across the Microsoft Security portfolio and demonstrated experience leading the design, implementation, and operationalization of enterprise cybersecurity solutions within classified or mission‑sensitive federal environments.
This role requires both architectural breadth and engineering depth across Microsoft’s Zero Trust security stack and the ability to serve as a trusted technical advisor to customer security leadership.

Desired experience includes hands‑on delivery or architectural leadership in one or more of the following Microsoft security solution domains:

• Identity & Access Security: Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Conditional Access, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Identity Governance, External Identities, cross‑tenant access, hybrid identity (Entra Connect), certificate‑based authentication (CBA), and integration with enterprise PKI and DoD ICAM patterns.
• Endpoint & Device Security: Microsoft Intune, Defender for Endpoint (MDE), endpoint detection and response (EDR), attack surface reduction (ASR), mobile device/application management (MDM/MAM), and secure device posture enforcement aligned to Zero Trust device trust principles.
• Threat Protection & SOC Modernization: Microsoft Defender XDR, Microsoft Sentinel (SIEM/SOAR), threat hunting (KQL), incident response workflows, automation/playbooks, and integration with existing enterprise SOC tooling and mission systems.
• Cloud Security & Workload Protection: Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Defender for Cloud Apps (CASB), Azure workload protection, container/Kubernetes security, infrastructure‑as‑code (IaC) security posture, and secure DevSecOps integration with Azure environments.
• Information Protection & Data Security: Microsoft Purview Information Protection, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Insider Risk Management, Information Barriers, and compliance solutions supporting sensitive data protection in regulated environments.
• Security Operations & Posture Management: Secure Score, exposure management, vulnerability management, and continuous monitoring approaches aligned with NIST RMF, DoD STIGs, or equivalent federal cybersecurity frameworks.
  Candidates should have experience aligning Microsoft security capabilities to federal cybersecurity compliance and risk management requirements such as NIST 800‑53, RMF, Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), Executive Order 14028, or agency‑specific ATO processes. Experience supporting security architecture design, control implementation, or assessment activities contributing to system Authorization to Operate (ATO) is strongly preferred. 

Successful candidates will demonstrate the ability to: 

• Lead customer‑facing technical engagements translating mission or compliance requirements into secure Microsoft platform architectures
• Provide technical leadership across multi‑domain security solution deployments spanning identity, endpoint, cloud, data, and security operations
• Influence security design decisions at the enterprise and enclave level through architecture reviews, threat modeling, and risk‑based tradeoff discussions
• Integrate Microsoft security services into hybrid or multi‑cloud mission environments.
• Mentor consultants and contribute to reusable delivery intellectual property (IP), accelerators, or reference architectures within the Microsoft Security consulting community
