North Point Technology is looking to hire a Security / IAM Architect to design and implement identity and security architecture across AWS GovCloud and ADC (C2S/SC2S) environments. The qualified candidate must have an active TS/SCI security clearance and will build least-privilege access models, encryption strategies, and security guardrails that meet federal and Intelligence Community standards in air-gapped, classified environments. The ideal candidate combines deep AWS security expertise with hands-on experience navigating ATO and accreditation processes in a DoD/IC setting.
Responsibilities:
This position centers on architecting and implementing identity and access management across AWS GovCloud and ADC (C2S/SC2S) environments, including IAM policies, roles, and permission boundaries.

For positions requiring a federal security clearance, your clearance level must be clearly identified on your resume.
North Point Technology, a Woman Owned Small-Business based in Reston, VA, was formed in 2005 with the belief that small business plays an integral role in our government's defense mission.
The overarching dilemma facing many of the most essential federal mission systems is the inability to assemble and retain teams of highly skilled and driven technical engineers. Traditionally, the scope of these programs demand structure and stability at a scale that is only possible from one of a few large proven organizations. These organizations typically come with significant overhead. This overhead, along with their size, can restrict these organizations from recruiting and retaining the most capable members of the workforce.
North Point Technology takes aim at solving this problem by recruiting highly skilled and motivated technologists, while retaining them by providing excellent compensation and benefits. We foster a culture of innovation by hiring like-minded engineers who have passion for their work and the mission. With our efficient business model, we can attract and retain top talent to facilitate critical mission needs.
