483,850 open positions · Updated daily

Security clearance roles are at the forefront of national defense and cyber resilience. With escalating cyber‑attack budgets and increased federal spending on advanced weaponry, demand for vetted professionals has surged, driving competitive salaries and rapid hiring cycles.

Clearance positions span software engineering, system architecture, threat intelligence, and compliance management. Typical duties include secure code reviews, penetration testing with tools like Kali Linux and Metasploit, configuring SIEM platforms such as Splunk or QRadar, and ensuring adherence to NIST SP 800‑53 controls for DoD and FedRAMP environments.

Salary transparency is critical for clearance holders because pay is often tied to the level of clearance and the sensitivity of projects. Knowing exact ranges upfront helps professionals negotiate time‑off, relocation, and contract terms, avoiding the hidden costs of security‑related travel and extended vetting periods.
