Zero Trust Network Security Engineer - Booz Allen Hamilton

The Opportunity:

Are you looking for an opportunity to combine your technical skills with big-picture thinking to make an impact on national security? You understand how identity, device posture, and policy come together to keep sensitive resources secure, and you know how to translate that understanding into resilient engineering solutions. Your ability to turn real-world access control challenges into technical specifications makes you an integral part of delivering a customer-focused Zero T rus t capability.

As a Zero T rus t Network Security Engineer on our team, you’ll have the chance to design and support remote access and conditional access enforcement solutions in support of the Department of Defense's (DoD) Zero T rus t mission. Your technical expertise will be vital as you help evaluate and modernize legacy VPN infrastructure into Security Service Edge ( SSE ) and Zero T rus t Network Access ( ZTNA ) capabilities. You'll develop your skills in identity, device posture, and policy -based access control while gaining experience supporting a large-scale, DoD-wide Zero T rus t conditional access initiative. Grow your skills by merging network security engineering with Zero T rus t architecture and policy enforcement design to create conditional access solutions that evaluate users and devices in real time before they reach mission-critical resources. Join our team and help turn Zero T rus t strategy into accomplishments that drive change.
