About the role

This role sits within Radar, our C3PAO assessment and compliance practice, and operates independently from Sentinel Blue's managed services delivery lines to preserve assessment integrity and objectivity.
This is not a delivery or remediation role.
You will be planning and leading formal assessments, evaluating evidence against NIST SP 800-171 practices, managing assessment teams, and producing defensible findings that clients and the Cyber-AB can rely on.

Lead and conduct formal CMMC Level 2 assessments in accordance with the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP) and Cyber-AB requirements.
Manage and mentor assessment team members, including junior assessors and CCPs, throughout the assessment lifecycle.
Maintain assessment records in accordance with confidentiality and data handling requirements, ensuring no CUI or export-controlled data is mishandled during the assessment process.
Support Radar's internal quality assurance processes to ensure assessments meet Cyber-AB and DoD standards.
Maintain clear separation between assessment activity and any Sentinel Blue managed services delivery to preserve independence and avoid conflicts of interest.
This is a great place if you want to expose yourself to new and emerging technologies, want to be challenged, and want to build your skills.

Strong working knowledge of NIST SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-172, and the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP).
Experience evaluating SSPs, POA&Ms, and technical evidence across IT environments, including cloud environments.
Excellent written communication skills - assessment findings must be precise and defensible.
U.S. citizenship may be required depending on client contract terms.
Hands-on assessment experience in Microsoft GCC High or Azure Government environments.
Familiarity with DFARS 252.204-7012, DFARS 7019/7020, and broader DIB compliance requirements.
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field.
Desired Qualifications: Hands-on assessment experience in Microsoft GCC High or Azure Government environments.
You'll also lead calls with the client to confirm assessment scope, walk them through findings as they emerge, and verify that required evidence is accurate and relevant.

We're bringing enterprise-class cybersecurity to small and medium sized businesses.
Frankly, we're pushing the envelope of how things are done and constantly seeking innovative ways to meet that mission.
The right person will find themselves in a fun, dynamic environment, working on interesting problems and making a real difference in the defense industrial base.
