Information Security System Officer (ISSO)

EpiSci, an Applied Intuition company, develops next-generation tactical autonomy solutions for national security problems. EpiSci's autonomy software is technology agnostic, operationally informed, and tactically relevant, and has piloted swarms of uncrewed aerial systems and tactical fighter aircraft. Additional applications include crewed-uncrewed teaming for air dominance, cognitive sensors, networks for advanced communications systems, and battle management command and control for informed decision-making. EpiSci delivers speed, cost-efficiency, and scalability as the preferred partner for defense agencies and industry teams seeking mission-critical autonomy solutions.

This ISSO owns the day-to-day security posture of EpiSci's classified information systems, collateral and Special Access Program, across our Irvine and Poway facilities.

You will build and maintain authorization packages under the Risk Management Framework, with implementation guidance drawn from JSIG, DAAPM, ICD-503, CMMC, and the NIST 800 series. You will work directly with the ISSM to attain and maintain assessment and authorization from government authorizing officials, from initial requirements through operational deployment and continuous monitoring.

This is a hands-on seat. The work includes configuring, scanning, remediating, and standing up enclaves alongside the documentation. You can expect regular interaction with government security offices and authorizing officials, DCSA, and program security teams, and a continuous review cadence on eMASS and program packages.

Program access: This position requires Special Access Program access. Prior SAP experience is strongly preferred. Candidates with collateral-only experience and a strong track record under RMF will be considered and read on after hire.
