What are the responsibilities and job description for the Cryptologic Computer Scientist, Level 2 position at Independent Software?
What you will be doing!
As a Cryptologic Computer Scientist, Level 2 you will design, develop, and deliver innovative solutions within a scientific framework. Your work will involve a variety of mission-critical tasks, including forensics, attack attribution, critical network protection, and penetration testing. Leveraging your expertise in computer science, you will employ advanced techniques and tools, focusing on operating systems, algorithms, and data structures to address complex challenges. You will play a vital role in advancing cryptologic and computer science missions using state-of-the-art approaches.
Requirements:
- Design, develop, deliver, and operate solutions to hard cryptologic computer science problems within a scientific framework.
- Solutions may arise in the form of forensics and attack attribution, protection of critical networks, active systems warnings and indicators, active penetration into target systems, knowledge discovery of passive and active systems, or other cryptologic computer science mission support.
- Requisite computer science skills (operating systems, compiler theory, database theory, algorithm analysis, computer architecture, discrete math, programming language theory, and data structures are applied to each problem to provide state-of-the-art techniques, tools, and approaches.
- Master’s Degree with 3 years of relevant experience
- Bachelor’s Degree with 5 years of relevant experience
- Associates degree with 7 years of relevant experience
- Degree must be in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field with at least one programming and at least four upper-level math classes (Calculus and above)
- Relevant experience must be in a computer science area (i.e., theoretical or applied), simulation/model development, designing/developing/using/evaluating mathematic models, methods, and/or techniques (e.g., algorithm or development) computation science, algorithm analysis and design, reverse engineering, and/or designing/developing computer and information systems, including engineering hardware and/or software.
Clearance Required: Must possess an active TS/SCI with Full Scope Polygraph security clearance to be considered for this role
