Ridgeline was founded in 2015 by a group of people with more than half a century of combined experience contributing to U.S. National Security. We understand our clients’ unique missions and we deliver innovative solutions to their most difficult challenges, filling critical technical gaps across the U.S. Government and business worlds. At Ridgeline, our capabilities extend from the classroom, where we provide the tools and training needed to work and communicate securely, to our engineered systems of specialized hardware and software that address critical security issues, and into Research and Development, where we dream, design, and build solutions to the threats of tomorrow. We iterate and deliver quickly – in the course of weeks or months, not years – and we’ve trained more than 1,000 people, deployed to over 50 countries, and managed systems with more than 2,000 end users.

Our Technical Operations Trainer works with key clients to facilitate technology integration into their operations through training, advising, and field-based operational assistance.  Our Instructors are the face of our company when interacting with our clients and driving requirements for some of our customers' most pressing problems.  

This work includes the development and delivery of technology-in-operations training, technique development, technology research and development, penetration testing, validation via exercises, and field support to clients.  Both generalists and specialists excel in this field, but a sound understanding of technology and operations within the realms of Cybersecurity, Communications, and Electronic Warfare is necessary. 

A strong candidate must have the ability to work with other subject matter experts in highly dynamic environments supporting a demanding mission.

A component of this work requires oversight of Techniques, Tactics, and Procedures (TTP) development and Program of Instruction (POI) creation and execution.
