Intel's Government Information Technology and Security (GITS) organization enables Intel to win United States Government business by providing secure products, solutions, and services which meet U.S. regulatory requirements. The GITS team is part of Intel's Information Security organization and supports the unique IT information Security and Compliance requirements for Intel Federal LLC, a subsidiary of Intel that delivers products and/or services to the U.S. Government (U.S.G.). As part of the GITS team, you will help us grow our secure solution suite to meet U.S. Government requirements for data safeguarding. The Government IT and Security (GITS) organization is seeking a self-driven Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) to join our dynamic and rapidly growing team. At GITS, every team member wears multiple hats and is valued for both deep subject matter expertise and broad adaptability across disciplines. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-impact environment-someone who's not only comfortable building secure systems, but excited about the opportunity to help shape new programs and capabilities from the ground up. We are entering a phase of rapid growth and innovation, tackling challenges we've never solved before, and doing it as a tight-knit team of like-minded professionals. We're looking for a motivated, self-managed professional with strong knowledge of the Risk Management Framework (RMF), proven risk assessment skills, and a genuine enthusiasm for continuous learning, problem-solving, and hands-on engagement with evolving technologies. As we build and scale our team, we need someone who's comfortable wearing multiple hats and contributing beyond the traditional ISSO scope-someone eager to help shape new processes, take on emerging challenges, and grow with the mission. This position may require working onsite full-time, with limited opportunity for remote work. Responsibilities include RMF Lifecycle Management, providing NIST 800-53 control implementation and verification on Windows and Linux workstations, implementing and managing continuous monitoring, supporting information system security management and daily security operations, providing documentation and compliance, managing Plans of Action and Milestones (POAMs), technical collaboration and support, audit and vulnerability management, supporting new facility and network stand-up activities, collaborating with IT teams to configure and harden systems, conducting research and recommending process improvements, and willingness to travel up to 25 percent. Candidates must be US citizens with active secret security clearance and ability to obtain Top Secret clearance, possess relevant certifications, have experience with NIST RMF lifecycle and security controls, and maintain security documentation. Preferred qualifications include active Top Secret clearance, bachelor's degree in related field, cloud security experience, Linux and network infrastructure auditing skills, and relevant certifications.
