Cybersecurity - Information Systems Security Manager ISSM - Clearance Required - Logistics Management Institute

Overview

We’re looking for an Information Systems Security Manager (ISSM) to lead the authorization and continuous compliance of LIGER, an enterprise AI platform for our DHS customer. You’ll own the security management posture for the platform: developing and maintaining the authorization package, driving the Risk Management Framework (RMF) lifecycle, and serving as LIGER’s primary security management interface to cyber leadership. This position requires a CBP Background Investigation; U.S. citizenship is required.

This is a senior, accountable role. While the LIGER cyber engineering team handles hands-on implementation, you own the strategy, the artifacts, and the relationship with Authorizing Officials and ISSOs. You’ll translate DHS security policy into actionable program direction, lead assessment and authorization (A&A) activities, and make sure LIGER reaches and maintains its Authority to Operate (ATO).

LIGER sits within LMI’s Chief Technology Office. We’re a small, high-visibility team building AI tools for federal agencies. The culture is more startup than traditional government contractor; we move fast, solve problems in design spikes rather than scheduled reviews, and care more about outcomes than process. That said, we’re building for users who need reliability and trust, so craft and attention to detail matter, especially in security.

As ISSM, you’ll work daily with the platform lead, the cyber engineering team, and product leadership, and directly with cyber stakeholders. You’ll set the security management direction for LIGER’s deployment and have real influence over how the platform balances rigor with the pace of iteration.

LMI is a new breed of digital solutions provider dedicated to accelerating government impact with innovation and speed. Investing in technology and prototypes ahead of need, LMI brings commercial-grade platforms and mission-ready AI to federal agencies at commercial speed.

Leveraging our mission-ready technology and solutions, proven expertise in federal deployment, and strategic relationships, we enhance outcomes for the government, efficiently and effectively. With a focus on agility and collaboration, LMI serves the defense, space, healthcare, and energy sectors—helping agencies navigate complexity and outpace change. Headquartered in Tysons, Virginia, LMI is committed to delivering impactful results that strengthen missions and drive lasting value.
