About the Job We’re seeking a Security Engineer to strengthen our security and compliance program as we align with rigorous security frameworks.

This role goes beyond technical execution—you’ll enhance our project’s security posture, influencing engineering and operations, and ensuring we remain secure while implementing quickly.

You’ll collaborate with consultants, our internal security team, and external auditors while partnering closely with engineering and DevOps to embed secure-by-design practices, support risk-based decisions, maintain clear, audit-ready documentation, and support regular reporting on security metrics and vulnerability reports.

This high-expertise role is ideal for an experienced problem-solver who delivers measurable security outcomes with clarity and requires little guidance in technical implementation.

Due to our government contract requirements, this position is open to U.S. citizens only who have the ability to obtain a government security clearance.

Qualifications Implement cybersecurity controls for cloud, application, and operational security within the program, leveraging strong expertise in AWS tools (IAM, KMS, CloudTrail, GuardDuty).

· Support compliance with CMMC/NIST 800-171 and FedRAMP/NIST 800-53 by executing technical controls with high proficiency, collaborating with external consultants and the cybersecurity team.

· Translate CMMC/NIST 800-171 and FedRAMP/NIST 800-53 requirements into practical, low-friction technical controls that integrate with engineering workflows.

· Maintain risk registers, access reviews, incident response plans, and security policies, ensuring alignment with program objectives.

· Prepare audit-ready documentation, including System Security Plans (SSPs), security diagrams, and evidence reports, with accuracy and efficiency.

· Support regular reporting on security metrics and vulnerability reports, providing clear insights to ensure transparency and compliance.

· Contribute technical expertise to security-related discussions with engineering, DevOps, product, and leadership teams, fostering effective collaboration.

· Enable secure development practices, including static analysis and CI/CD controls, using tools like Terraform or Snyk with strong proficiency.

· Identify and address gaps in logging, alerting, encryption, and endpoint security within the program, applying expert judgment in collaboration with the cybersecurity team.

· 5+ years of experience in security engineering, DevSecOps, or security program roles, with a strong track record of technical implementation.

· Strong expertise in AWS security best practices and tools, requiring minimal guidance.

· Experience implementing security requirements similar to CMMC/NIST 800-171 or FedRAMP/NIST 800-53 (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, SOC 2 Type II).

· Direct experience with CMMC/NIST 800-171 or FedRAMP/NIST 800-53 implementation is a plus but not required.

· Proven experience in audit preparation, including control implementation and documentation.

· Pragmatic, risk-based decision-maker with the ability to prioritize impactful technical solutions.

· Strong documentation and communication skills, capable of explaining technical controls to auditors and engineers with clarity.

· Experience with FedRAMP ATO or working in regulated environments.

· Proficiency in secure CI/CD workflows and tools like Terraform, Snyk, or Datadog.

· Ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams, supporting program security objectives.

· Equivalent experience or non-traditional backgrounds that demonstrate the required expertise are welcome.

· U.S. citizenship and the ability to obtain a government security clearance, as required by our federal contract.

Work Environment · This role is based at BILT’s Global Brand Support Center in Grapevine, Texas, near DFW Airport and Southlake Town Square.

· Routine use of standard office equipment (computers, tablets, phones, email, and FedRAMP-compliant communication platforms like Microsoft Teams).

· Physical demands include prolonged computer use and occasional lifting of up to 25 pounds.

· Office hours: 8:30 AM–5:30 PM, Monday through Friday, with convenient parking and nearby amenities.

· Federal contract work may require coordination with government stakeholders and adherence to secure development practices.
