The Cybersecurity Compliance Manager will oversee nTop's cyber compliance program, manage CMMC assessments, and ensure federal cybersecurity framework adherence while collaborating with various teams.
Engineering teams face an impossible reality: deliver more complex products faster, with fewer experts, and zero tolerance for failure. nTop changes how engineering gets done. Our technology collapses months of iteration into hours, letting teams explore thousands of variants instead of settling for the first option. Teams reduce development time by 50% and increase program win rates. Leaders choose nTop when failure isn't an option.
nTop is hiring a Cybersecurity Compliance Manager (CMMC/DIB focus) to facilitate the design and day-to-day operation of nTop’s cyber compliance program to enable responsible growth across its national security customer base. This is a cross-functional role that is part of the Information Security team and partners closely with Legal, Engineering, Business Development, and leadership on interpretation, escalation, and resolution of novel or high-risk issues. This individual will bring hands-on experience in Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification “CMMC” Level 1, 2, and 3 assessments, NIST 800-171 / 800-53 / RMF implementation, and DFARS compliance. The ideal candidate is a CMMC certified professional who demonstrates strong understanding of federal cybersecurity frameworks and programmatic risk management.

- Provide guidance on DFARS 252.204-7012/7019/7020/7021 compliance requirements and related DoW contracting cybersecurity obligations.
- Assist in developing cybersecurity governance frameworks and inheritable control matrices that align with nTop’s developing business and regulatory requirements.
- Participate in developing internal training and awareness exercises for the company staff.
Required Experience:
- Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Cybersecurity, or a related discipline.
- 4-6 years of direct cybersecurity or compliance experience, including work related to DIB or federal-sector customers/employer(s).
