Dallas, TX (Hybrid option available)

Employment Type:

Reports To:

Sr. FSO

US Citizen

• Must have a security clearance

Scope

• BYDS operates under a DCSA FOCI-mitigation agreement that requires one named authority who can attest to the TCP and answer directly to the Board's Government Security Committee (GSC). The TCP, the access decisions on ITAR-controlled data, and the annual program reports carry the TCO’s signature: this is not an advisory function, it is a position of record for the organization.
• Key responsibilities include aligning security program goals with organizational objectives, assessing and mitigating risk, ensuring regulatory compliance, protecting personnel, information, facilities, and business operations.

What you’ll do

• Own and execute the BYDS Technology Control Plan end-to-end: policy, oversight, assurance, Board reporting, and annual attestation to the GSC under DCSA FOCI guidance.
• Carry the trade-compliance mandate under ITAR across BYDS operations; ensure compliance with BIS and DDTC regulations and guidance, including classifications, export authorizations, exemptions, and exceptions.
• Define control requirements for product teams to implement and monitor; review technical specifications, audit logs, and assurance evidence; identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities and assist in implementing countermeasures.
• Prepare reports on the status of security safeguards applied to computer systems.
• Report to the BYDS GSC on all ITAR and EAR matters; execute projects under guidance of the GSC, BYDS Executive Leadership Team, and FSO; publish a Technology Control Plan, Electronic Communications Plan, and annual DCSA reports.
• Investigate and document program and TCP violations, gather required information, and sign off on required compliance reports; revoke account access and licenses following required actions per applicable policies.
• Lead cross-functional compliance coordination across client, project, and information-security teams; investigate and document reports of lost or stolen BYDS devices, documents, or data in collaboration with team members.
• Conduct periodic reviews of information systems to verify compliance with security authorization packages.
• Coordinate changes or modifications to hardware, software, or firmware of systems with team members prior to implementation.
• Monitor system recovery processes to verify proper restoration of security features and procedures. Maintain current and accessible IS security-related documentation for authorized personnel. Collect, review, and document audit records, including any anomalies.
• Attend technical and security training relevant to assigned duties (e.g., operating system, networking, security management).
• Execute the cybersecurity portion of annual self-inspections, including providing security coordination and review of system assessment plans.

What we are looking for

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, Information Security, or related field
• Strong understanding of NISPOM, DAAPM, JSIG methodologies and techniques
• Proven experience as an ISSO supporting DoD efforts
• Knowledge of various FOCI Mitigations, DCSA Policies and Procedures
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Familiarity with security frameworks such as eMASS, NIST, and ISO 27001
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
