Document test results, prepare test reports, and support remediation activities.
Integrate security testing into DevSecOps pipelines and CI/CD workflows.
Provide recommendations for improving security posture based on test findings.
Why This Role Matters
The FAA is the cornerstone of aviation safety and innovation. The Cybersecurity Test Engineer plays a vital role in validating that FAA systems are resilient against cyber threats.
