• Maintain all security artifacts in eMASS including POA&Ms, risk assessments, authorization letters, and continuous monitoring evidence across multiple eMASS records
• Review platform Change Requests for security impact
• Support RMF activities including security control assessments, SCA evidence collection, and ATO package preparation
• Conduct weekly CVE expiry reviews, compile per‑team remediation lists, and coordinate bulk outreach to engineering teams
• Assist with ISA development and review for system interconnections and Cross‑Domain Solution paths

• Familiarity with cloud PaaS platforms in a DoD context (IL2 through IL6)
• Experience with eMASS for RMF package management and continuous monitoring
• Hands‑on experience reviewing third‑party vendor security artifacts (SBOMs, SAST/DAST reports, POA&Ms) for onboarding decisions
