Job description
C2 Labs is hiring a Security Engineer (Cloud Security Engineer) to support FedRAMP authorization acceleration and ongoing ConMon for defense-focused startups and companies deploying production workloads on Azure Government. You’ll implement security controls, build repeatable evidence pipelines, and help make ConMon feel like an operational routine—not a monthly fire drill.
What you’ll do
- Implement and tune cloud security controls (IAM, logging, vulnerability management, configuration baselines, incident readiness).
- Configure security tooling and integrations to produce repeatable evidence for authorization and ConMon.
- Support remediation and hardening workstreams, including vulnerability scan remediation support.
- Help automate evidence exports / reporting inputs where feasible and keep operations sustainable post-authorization.
What we’re looking for
- 5+ years security engineering experience, including cloud security implementation and operations.
- Hands-on experience with vulnerability management and secure configuration practices.
- Working familiarity with cloud logging/monitoring, IAM guardrails, encryption/key management, and incident response readiness.
- Comfort scripting/automation (PowerShell, Python, bash) and working with APIs/integrations.
- Ability to communicate technical findings clearly to non-engineers and support audit/assessment discussions.
Nice to have
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, IT, or related field
- Azure security experience (Defender for Cloud, Sentinel/Log Analytics, Azure Policy, PIM) and/or Azure Government experience.
- Experience supporting NIST 800-53 / FedRAMP assessments, remediation, or ConMon deliverables.
- Security+ / AZ-500 / CISSP or similar certifications.
- Experience integrating evidence into GRC platforms (RegScale preferred).
Engagement details
- 1099 independent contractor (initial engagement); project-based with potential extension into ConMon operations.
- Remote-first; occasional on-site support only when customer environment requires it (rare).
- No clearance required; must be able to pass a standard background check and sign NDA/SOW.
- Work is typically in Azure Government environments supporting FedRAMP 20X and/or legacy packages.
