Swarm Aero is redefining air power, building the largest swarming UAV and the most versatile swarming aircraft network in the world. The company is moving quickly to launch the first aircraft designed specifically for swarming, as well as the Command & Control software to mobilize swarms of thousands of heterogeneous autonomous assets and empower human operators to achieve superhuman results. The team has created and exited multiple startups, negotiated defense deals worth billions of dollars, and designed and built 30+ novel aircraft, with aerospace experience from Scaled Composites, Airbus, Archer Aviation, Blue Origin, and Boom Supersonic. Role Overview Swarm Aero is hiring an Information Security Lead / AWS Security Architect to sit within the IT organization and own the security architecture, documentation, and compliance support needed across our AWS environment and regulated customer deployments. This is a dedicated IT role. The person will work closely with Legion because Legion has the most urgent IL5/IL6 deployment needs, but they are not a Legion-owned resource. They will support the existing company-wide SSP and CMMC program while also helping build and maintain the separate Legion-specific security package required for high-side and government cloud deployments. The right person needs to be comfortable moving between implementation and documentation. This is not just a paperwork role. They need to understand how AWS is architected, how controls are actually implemented, how to produce evidence, how to drive remediation, and how to keep the broader security program aligned as Legion moves into IL5/IL6 environments.

AWS Security Architecture and Implementation - Own Swarm’s AWS security architecture from the IT side. - Be responsible for the security posture of existing AWS deployments and future regulated AWS environments. - Review and guide AWS account architecture, IAM, logging, monitoring, encryption, networking, segmentation, backup, vulnerability management, and secure deployment patterns. - Support AWS GovCloud, IL5/IL6, and other regulated deployment architectures. - Establish repeatable AWS security baselines that can support Legion and future customer environments. - Work with DevSecOps and Engineering to ensure implementation matches compliance requirements, not just policy language.
