Vulnerability Management Lead

Vulnerability Management Lead

The Opportunity:

Booz Allen is seeking a senior Vulnerability Management professional to support DoD clients by modernizing ACAS capabilities and designing enterprise-scale STIG compliance solutions. This role is positioned as a trusted advisor and technical lead, helping clients move from fragmented compliance execution to repeatable enterprise cyber risk management, continuous monitoring, and mission velocity.

The ideal candidate will operate comfortably at the intersection of architecture, engineering, and client influence while driving hands-on outcomes.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead ACAS modernization efforts, transitioning Tenable deployments from basic scanning to enterprise vulnerability management services.

• Modernize ACAS implementation by assisting with standardizing scan policies, credentialed coverage, asset tagging, and data hygiene.

• Design contractor-operated workflows for vulnerability intake, prioritization, remediation tracking, and risk acceptance.

• Integrate ACAS outputs into customer POA&M processes, ATO sustainment activities, and reporting requirements.

• Advise government stakeholders on vulnerability prioritization, risk tradeoffs, and RMF integration.

• Partner with cyber engineering, architecture, and RMF teams to align vulnerability management with Zero Trust modernization initiatives.

• Produce executive-level briefings on cyber risk posture, trends, and remediation effectiveness.

• Develop enterprise STIG compliance frameworks that enable control inheritance, reuse, and automation across systems.

• Standardize STIG baselines, tailoring decisions, and documentation to reduce per-system compliance burden.

• Implement and maintain SCAP or STIG tooling such as SCC, OpenSCAP, and vendor solutions, across server, endpoint, and platform technologies.

• Produce defensible STIG artifacts and evidence packages to support ATOs and continuous monitoring.

• Advise system owners and ISSMs on remediation strategies and risk-based deviations.

• Automate repeatable tasks using scripting and workflow tooling, where feasible.

• Integrate ACAS and STIG outputs with customer ticketing, GRC, or reporting systems.
