Conduct code reviews focused on secure‑coding practices and provide remediation guidance.
Assist in building security‑focused APIs and micro‑services that enforce authentication, authorization, and data‑privacy controls.
Participate in threat modeling and risk assessments for new features and existing applications.

Help develop and execute penetration‑test scripts or automated vulnerability scans on cloud and container environments.

Support incident‑response activities (log analysis, forensic data collection) under supervision.
Prepare concise status briefings or demo videos that communicate findings and remediation plans to technical and non‑technical audiences.

Travel to a Lockheed Martin site occasionally (as needed) and operate effectively in a virtual team setting.

• Experience with at least one programming language (Java, Python, JavaScript, C, etc.) and an understanding of secure coding principles.
• Exposure to vulnerability management tools (Nessus, Qualys, OpenVAS) or penetration‑testing frameworks (Metasploit, Burp Suite).
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Desired Skills:
• Hands‑on experience with cloud security (AWS/Azure/GCP IAM, security groups, container security).
• Interest in emerging security technologies and AI‑driven defenses.
• Experience with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps) and integrating security scanners (Snyk, SonarQube, Trivy).
• Basic knowledge of networking concepts (TCP/IP, DNS, VPN, firewalls).
• Familiarity with Agile development frameworks (Scrum, Kanban).
