📋 Description

• The Product Cybersecurity Center (PCsC) provides enterprise-wide services, enablers, training, and technical expertise that help RTX securely design, build, and assess the cybersecurity of its products. • As a senior cybersecurity expert within this organization, the Sr. Principal Engineer, Cyber Vulnerability Assessment leads a broad range of product-focused security assessment activities—including vulnerability analysis, penetration testing, secure-design evaluation, and architectural review—to identify risks and strengthen the resilience of a broad range of RTX products across all lifecycle stages. • This role encompasses advanced vulnerability identification, penetration testing, secure design evaluation, architectural analysis, and risk assessment — all aimed at strengthening the cybersecurity posture and resilience of RTX products. • It requires deep technical capability, strong analytical skills, and the ability to provide actionable recommendations that directly influence product engineering decisions. • A key component of this role is also the development and delivery of cybersecurity training that enables product teams to integrate secure practices into design, development, testing, and sustainment. • The Sr. Principal Engineer ensures that assessment insights and real-world findings directly shape course content, hands-on exercises, and learning materials used across RTX engineering teams. • Training is not an isolated task; it is a strategic capability that amplifies the impact of assessment activities by raising the overall cybersecurity proficiency of the product engineering workforce. • This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports, but it requires operating as a recognized technical leader. • The Sr. Principal Engineer will regularly lead assessment teams composed of engineers and specialists from across the business, providing technical direction, mentoring, and coordinating activity to deliver high-impact product assessments.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical discipline. • 10+ years of experience in vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, offensive security, product cybersecurity, or similar hands‑on cybersecurity disciplines. • Strong proficiency with penetration testing and vulnerability analysis tools and techniques (e.g., Nmap, Burp Suite, Metasploit, OWASP ZAP, Ghidra, IDA Pro, JTAGulator, Bus Pirate, ChipWhisperer). • Experience delivering and developing material to a broad audience – including both technical and leadership positions (e.g., teaching, training, conference presentations, customer presentations). • Professional certifications such as OSCP, OSWE, OSEP, GPEN, GWAPT, GDSA, CISSP, or equivalent. • The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
